Holes 18
Type Semi-Private
Par 70
Length 5881 yards
Slope 117
Rating 68.2

Lake Wisconsin Country Club is located on the outskirts of Prairie du Sac, just a 30-minute drive from both Madison and the Wisconsin Dells. The golf course is quite short at 5,881 yards, which makes it pleasantly walkable, but it is certainly not an easy course. The front nine plays across rolling hills while the back nine is centered upon the manmade Lake Wisconsin. The bunkering throughout the golf course is minimal, but it is strategic and fair. The small, fast greens have enough undulations to give them some character but they are not overly difficult though the tricky doglegs shaped by stands of mature trees will test your accuracy. The par-3 12th hole is the signature thanks to a challenging island tee. Lake Wisconsin Country Club's 16th hole also has a memorable tee shot between two towering oak trees followed by a short iron to a well guarded green that backs onto the Wisconsin River.

Good Value

Course is in very good condition with a few spring landscaping items being attended too. Greens are in great shape and fast, one of the best values in the the area. Well done maintenance crew.

A good option for the area

Lake Wisconsin Country Club is a decent course. The best? Nah. But it's typically in good shape and plays well. The layout is fairly forgiving, allowing a few stray hits without punishing you. The back nine throws a few par 3 holes at you early, so hopefully your irons are "on" by then!

Overall, this is a good option. I won't overpay to golf here, as there are plenty of other courses I can get to for similar rates.

Beautiful course - great value

Tee boxes and fairways were top notch. The greens were still a little sandy and very hard. Almost impossible to keep a ball on the green even with a short iron. The layout was simple, the bunkers were raked and the price was very reasonable. Will definitely play there again.

Early spring dip in the weather

43 degrees and 15 mph winds made for a mid 30s wind chill day with a lot of clouds to boot. But, course was in excellent condition. Appreciate the physical changes since last year here and there on the course to make it a fairer course to play without dropping the overall challenge. Greens' surfaces were in great shape, but as usual the slopes and undulations can bite you on the greens while you also have to be careful with the fairly quick surfaces. I got a score I deserved as per the risks, rewards, and course management. Enjoyed the day regardless of the weather- which made for a quiet golf course with leisurely holes as there were few players until later in the day when I was wrapping up. Any of the staff I came across were friendly and acknowledging.

pristine from tee to greens

best manicured course I played in the Dells this past week. Condition of greens , fringe area and fairways were immaculate. Much mowing and pressing and rolling of greens were observed during round. Kudos to the maintenance crew. I would highly recommend playing this course.

Decent course overall

Course was in good shape for the time of year. Had to wait for frost to get off the green which moved my tee time from 0800 to 0815. The gave me a bucket of balls for free to hit the range. Only complaint is the groundskeeper blowing leaves followed us for 5 holes on the front nine. The entire course was empty as we were the only group out at that time and he chose to keep going through our putts and drives. At some points he came within 50ft of us lining up a shot. Outside of that the course was fine and staff was nice outside of the one instance.

Had a really fun round, even though we didn't play as well as we normally do, plus the shaft broke on one of my scoring clubs so put me at a disadvantage on a couple of holes. Weather phenomenal, great day.

There was stormy weather up to an hour of our tee time. Two of our foursome had a hour and half drive so they canceled. The course would not give us a refund or credit and said I had to deal with Tee-Off or GolfNow. I have yet to contact them.
As far as the Lake Wisconsin course it was in excellent shape and plays difficult with some tight fairways and dog-legs. I’m playing it again in a few days, that in itself attests to how I feel about the course.
