Gravel pits for bunkers

The layout of the course is awesome but the conditions are absolutely horrendous. Massive amounts of burnt out or dead grass in the fairways and greens. A ridiculous amount of hidden stones and large rocks that are obscured by dead grass or clippings. I actually used a t a few times to check and see if there was dirt under the ball. The speed of the greens changes drastically throughout the 18. One cart girl who wasn't moving is pathetic for an 18-hole course that was full. Devil's Head also did not have our tee time and we were forced to wait an additional 20 minutes to tee off.

Devils Head, Glacier Course

What a bargain through Golf Now! A beautiful course nestled high in the Wisconsin hills with spectacular views. Play it for fun, not for score as the greens, while in great shape, are unreadable, mounded, and very difficult. Beer at 6 bucks each, a bit much though. We thoroughly enjoyed playing here.

Enjoyable golf

We arrived a little early only to find out a shotgun start was in play. The starter was very helpful. He checked for a gap and sent us right off. We had an enjoyable round with friends.

Layout

The layout of the Glacier Course was fantastic. We played the white tees making the course about 6,100 yards. Drive position was crucial on many holes. We had one player with some course knowledge that was helpful. The fairway grass was thin in spots as were some of the greens. The views outweighed some of the issues with course conditions. Play this course in the fall for a beautiful experience.

Great Views, Nice Course - well worth the drive

The Glacier Course has very nice views and challenging but fair holes. It was in very good shape, although the greens were running a bit slow. The greens did hold the ball well, so you could shoot at the pin. The rock "fence lines" were entertaining, and the rough was there, but fair. Plenty of room to land tee shots. Definitely worth the drive from Wisconsin Dells area, especially at the Golf Now prices. Will go again when we get back to the area. Staff was very friendly. Great pace of play with 3:00 p.m. later tee time.

the glacier

Fun layout but the greens were in bad shape after aeration. I know it's not peak season yet but they were very fuzzy and slow. I will come back to play after the greens have had time to shape up. Great value though and very few on the course so we never had to wait. Great scenery too.

A Not-to-Miss Course!

This course is such an extreme value! It is easily one of the most beautiful courses in the area, with a fair amount of challenge, and a wonderful staff! It is well-maintained, and has every amenity you could hope for . GREAT course for the casual duffer all the way up to a near-pro!

I played the glacier course this time for the first time.
The course was in excellent shape and I played with my family as a 3-some. The pace of play was fine...not pushed at all.

Back in the middle of no where is Devils Head

I played Devils Head's Glacier Course for a steel of a price thanks to GN. I was paired up witch I like with a older brother & sister team, and enjoyed there company. When I got there they were having a lot of traffic due to an golf outing finishing up. But the course was not as I thought it would be. And having only 3 sets of tee boxes 2 for the guys and one woman's tees. I played the back tees and found it fairly easy. After the first 2 holes the course got a bit better I used a 3 wood and was in the middle all day here, and when I hit the wide open holes used my driver and played smart off the tees here and I only lost one ball on 18 because I was 185 out a fired a 5 wood to the green and the pin was tucked in back left corner and I just missed clearing the water as it bounced off the wall. Has a nice layout, but play before the afternoon because the misquitos will effect your round being deep into the woods here. Was a fun one time play and I played on a second round day after playing in Madison in the morning, was only an hour drive here. The greens were the great thing here, Soft so you could fire at them and stick and not bounce off. And fairly big greens. I would say Glacier is senic to. I had fun getting through it with my playing partners, and Mary was the gal I played with, and she could play for being in her 50's. As could Bob. We finished this course under 4 hours which I love. I would recommend playing here a couple times. I holed out this track with a 43-40=83 which is my handicap 11. And thank god on hole 9 or 10 you hit toward a pond on the right. well I hit my second shot here towards the ob be pin high, I found it, I got a shocker,, as I stepped right next to a rattle snake that was dead, see photos as proof. If it was alive it was about a 6 footer, I would of been bitten. WOW!!!
