Krooked Kreek Golf Club has a scenic location nestled between the bluffs of the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway and the glacial eskers of western Wisconsin. The aptly named course has a creek that zigzags haphazardly across the landscape. The golf course was opened as a nine-hole course in 1990 and the back nine was added five years later. The front nine sprawls across mostly flat terrain and the generous greens offer some rooms for error, but you'll have to be careful because the layout gets tougher on the back nine. The greens are much smaller on the back side and they are much more undulating, making accuracy and thoughtful course management the key to a good score. Wetlands come into play on 11 holes at Krooked Kreek Golf Club, and there are also strategically placed bunkers throughout.

Favorite course

Not only are the people great at this course, but the course itself is challenging and beautiful. Not joking when I tell you to bring plenty of golf balls! Hitting it accurately on this course is far more important than distance. You’re welcome.

Krooked Kreek

1st time play the course. There are a hand full of holes that I would have to put down as difficult when you don't know where you want to go with your shots. 2nd time I would imagine would be better. Going with someone who knows the course would be great help for 1st time.

We would play Krooked Kreek again

My 2 sons and I played Krooked Kreek for the first time this afternoon. The staff were very friendly and Check in was a breeze since I used GolfNow. Both of my sons enjoyed the round and told me they would play here again even though it’s a 45 minute drive from our house.

Fun time

Good course. Don’t need to be a professional/scratch golfer to have success at Krooked Kreek. Greens were in great condition. Fairways were pretty decent as well. You have to make a few blind shots but it’s an overall forgiving course. We’ll be back.
