Bad Shape

The course was in BAD shape. Greens were fuzzy, not cut on a Sunday, SUPER slow. Divot marks all over. The bunkers are dirt, not sand, and the tee boxes and fairways are long.
You shouldn’t have to worry about getting grass between club and ball when teeing up a par 3, but it is true. All of the boxes were terribly long.

Course is charging too much at $59 for the shape it is in.

Great Course but Gimmicky Pins

The course was in great shape, but the pins were on top of crowns almost all the time. If you were above the hole, putted die pace and missed, the ball might roll 12 ft.

Good Course, Terribel Pace of Play

The course was good. I’ve been there before and enjoyed it. This time, mid day on a Sunday was one of the worst golf experiences I’ve ever had. We would literally hit a shot, and have to wait over 10 mins before we hit another. Thought about leaving several times, but at $80/round, didn’t want to just leave. Not sure iI’d ever play there on a weekend again

Feel good course

When you need to feel A little better about your game or work on some things, this is a good place to do it. Also, great place for less experienced golfers, as there aren’t many true hazards.

This course could be great, but it’s not!

The course layout and grooming were great, except the greens. I thought the greens were super inconsistent. Like they have never been rolled. Speeds were different on every green.

No cart girl, only a house positioned in the middle of a few holes, and the house didn’t have cigars. This place could be good with cart girl and improving the greens, otherwise, not a great place for customer golf.

Only worth it on a good Price

I hadn't played here yet because they always want $60+. I don't have a problem paying that much for a good round of golf, but usually if I am going to pay that much, I have other courses I prefer to play. I got a deal as a single filling out a 4-some, so I wanted to check it out. Not great. Course is not groomed nearly as good as most courses in that $65+ price range. Also, we waited on almost every shot. It was a Saturday, but not my kind of golf. Too slow, and normal rate is priced about $10-15 too high.
Front 9 is pretty open, back 9, much tougher. Big greens, stay below the hole.

Great Course for the Money

This was a great value up in the Wisconsin Dells area. The only thing that was sub-par was that we didn't see the cart girl until the 17th hole. We were on vacation, so not sure what the rules for selling are. We teed off at 7, so maybe it was too early. Otherwise, worth the money.
