Directions to Stryker Golf Course
If coming from the direction of Fayetteville, then your travel is the same as it has always been, traveling 87 north until reaching Stryker Golf Course on the left. If coming from the north, you will need to access the overpass in Spring Lake and follow signs going to 87 south. When arriving at the traffic signal on 87, turn LEFT onto 87 north and go to the end of the road (approximately 0.5 miles), Stryker Golf Course is again on the left.
