Rating N/A

Alpine Valley Resort sprawls across the Kettle Moraine in southern Wisconsin, lending a unique landscape to each of its three nine-hole courses: Summit, Meadows, and Sugar Creek. In the winter, Alpine Valley is one of Wisconsin's largest ski resorts. The golf courses can be played individually or as 18-hole combinations. The Meadows/Sugar Creek will start players off on a landscape of open, grassy meadows before the landscape becomes more wooded and hillier. The namesake creek of the second nine bisects two holes on the Meadows. The back nine, Sugar Creek, is situated right along the banks of the creek. Water plays a prominent role throughout the entire golf course, with hazards coming from not only the creek but also several lakes and small ponds. There are also a few strategically placed bunkers to contend with.

Worse conditions ever

The potential for the course would be outstanding. The problem is course management. Worse condition I’ve ever played on. T boxes barely have grass on them, fairways are cut way to long. Greens are not attended to for morning dew. What a shame.

Alpine is a fun layout with lots of twist and turns.

First trip out to Alpine was a fun experience. There are some driver holes and some spot golf but its fun because if you put yourself in good places your going to make birdie. Greens are front to back and fast if your above the hole.

Front nine the summit course is pretty straight forward til hole 5 hit no more than 200 yards through a crazy tiny shoot. Hole 6 is a layup hole another 200 yard shot but with a bit more space. Hole 8 is a HARD dog leg right fly it over the pines on the right. 9 is a great straight down hill par 3 that you cant even see the green.

Back nine "Meadow" starts similar to the front. 12 and 13 are short par 4s that require a shot placed far enough but not to far to get to the green. End with a couple wide open par 5s to make a couple more birdies.

Alpine is a fun track and definitely a place to check out if you time. And if you get a chance check out a concert their. They do big time ones and I heard its an awesome experience.

The views are awesome.

We enjoy coming to Alpine for the challenging golf and awesome views. Some days the course is very busy and the play is slower, but that is okay. The par 5's are very hard and worth the challenge. The groundskeepers are doing a great job keeping the course green and cut all year.

A Pleasant Round

The course is set in the valley and hills near a ski resort. The golf course is a "summer use" that seemed to almost to be a secret for the benefit of local players. the greens were fine, with significant undulation. The course plays longer than the yardage, which can fool the eye. The views are scenic and unique. Worth the trip.

Lake Geneva area Jewel!

I am always amazed when I play this course on why there isn't more golfers flocking to this course! This course has great character and scenery. The price makes it the best value among Lake Geneva area courses.

Alpine Valley Resort (Summit - Meadows)

The Good: Popular ski resort area about 10 minutes north of Lake Geneva with 27 quirky, fun tree-lined holes. The Summit - Meadows nines are the traditional pairings, which include multiple back-to-back Par 5's, several dogleg Par 4's, and some superb short, downhill Par 3's. Greens, albeit very small, are in good shape. Staff is very friendly, even if the overall service isn't typical of a resort. Decent value at under $50 during weekend peak season. On-site lodging a stones throw from the clubhouse.

The Bad: Course conditions are fair at best. Many of the tee boxes have severe uneven lies. Many of the greens are much too small for a regulation golf course. Very limited practice area with only small putting green and no driving range or short game area. Clubhouse is modest but has an outdated 70's feel. No GPS or on-site restrooms. Too many blind shots.

The Verdict: Alpine Valley is a goofy golf at its best, if that's what you're after. Some nice holes, but otherwise you'd have to play several times before knowing how to play the course, and that's several times too many.

Best Hole: Ridiculous and awesome in one, the short downhill Par 3 #9 has a postage stamp green you can't see from the tee.

Nice, but overlooked

We always enjoy playing this course. The Summit 9 is our favorite with all the variety and elevation changes. The course was in good shape for our 18. The only drawback I've ever found on this course is pace of play can be slow if you have a foursome ahead of you.

Early Season

Greens were fast and very well kept. Fairways needed some work, the grass was a little long and were not well defined from the rough. Tee boxes needed some leveling also, usually had to find a level area behind the designated tee area.

The course plays longer than its yardage

The course was in much better shape then the previous time I had played it. The sand traps need work but talking to the greens crew working on a sand trap the main problem they have is that some of the sand traps get washed out when they have big rain storms due to some of the hills on the course.
