Outstanding

Truly a championship design with a good variety of holes. Aeration had been done recently on the greens, but otherwise in good condition. If you enjoy a challenging and well designed course, it's a must play.

Nice par 3 course

Played this as a tune up/practice round for a bigger course later in the day. It is a cute little course that is perfect for short game practice as well as a perfect course for families, kids, seniors, or any novice golfer just starting to learn the game. The condition of the course was very good and we truly enjoyed playing here.

Impressive

Really felt that every aspect of the golf course was tremendous. The atmosphere of the clubhouse, course, and surroundings is just really good. It's a high quality course without being pretentious. The course itself is very challenging and simply has a beautiful layout that is extremely well designed. A couple of the par 5's are real special and the natural areas and great bunkering give it a great look. If you're a serious golfer, you should definitely try it. This course is absolutely on my favorites list. Thanks Golfnow.

Excellent layout

This course has a really nice combination of holes to keep it interesting. Thought the fairways were in great shape, but the greens were a little rough in spots. Overall, I was very impressed with the course and really enjoyed a number of holes that worked their way around the lake area. Also, Hole #1 is one of the best opening holes I've played. One suggestion I have would be electric carts/ GPS for a place this nice. Excellent course at a great price. Thanks again Golfnow!

Pretty basic

First time playing this course and was somewhat disappointed. I guess I was expecting more. The positive was that it was well maintained and the greens putted well. My issue with the course was that, with one exception, the design is very plain and somewhat boring. The bunkering is really poor along with really flat and simple green complexes. An OK course that I would recommend as long as your expectations are not too high.

Excellent layout with tough greens

This course has a good variety of golf holes. The undulating fairways with excellent bunkering gives the course a very nice look. I would like to see a few more greenside bunkers, but that is a minor issue on an otherwise beautiful course. The condition was not perfect, but certainly understandable for the time of year. Overall a great experience with a great price from Golfnow.

Very good course and a great value

A really strong, straightforward course. Fairways lined with big mature trees, excellent bunkering, and soft well maintained conditions make it a pleasure to play. For a county course, they do a great job keeping it in nice condition. The pricing of this course is quite reasonable, even without the great deal from Golfnow. This course gets quite busy in the summertime and the pace of play can get slow, but otherwise its a great experience.

Well maintained course

Condition was very impressive and the greens were quite fast. Thought the course had a good variety of holes with a few nice elevation changes. Staff was friendly, course workers were attentive, and the overall experience was good. Just a good solid course at a great price from Golfnow.

Pretty wide open, links style course

Very well maintained fairways. Course is generally in good condition. Greens had leftover aeration marks, but understandable for the time of year. Generous landing areas with pretty good bunkering, but green complexes are fairly flat and not overly exciting or challenging. Parts of the course are surrounded by large expensive homes, feels a little like you are playing in the middle of a subdivision - not my favorite atmosphere. Pretty solid course, but way overpriced without Golfnow deals.

Very good course, but one strange flaw

Found this course to be nicely designed and in excellent overall condition. Really enjoyed a couple of the excellent short par 4's .Hilly and somewhat wooded around the edges of the course gave it a nice feel. The course is well marked and the electric carts with GPS is a great feature. My only real issue with the course is the bizarre 16th hole - a road cuts right through the fairway about 210 - 240 yards from the tee. Trees line the left side, so you can't even see the cars coming. Two cars passed by as we stood on the tee - very strange for a course this nice. Only other small complaint is that some tee boxes need to be leveled off. With those exceptions, the overall experience was very good. Thanks to Golfnow for the good deal, otherwise it would be too expensive to play here.

Solid, championship style course

Nice layout, but nothing overly dramatic. Some very good par fives, but a couple of weak par threes. A very good overall course, but lacks a little of the "wow" factor. I was extremely impressed with the fastest, best rolling greens in southeastern Wisconsin, in my opinion. The overall condition was quite good, though a few bunkers need some work. Enjoyed playing this course at the discounted rate, though I do find the standard rates to be well overpriced.

Great design

Enjoyed playing this course again. Built on relatively flat land, this is one of the best designed courses around the area. Very challenging course even for low handicaps. The course was well conditioned which added to our enjoyment.

Great course with elevation changes

Beautiful course that is well designed with a nice layout. The course was well maintained and the staff was very accomodating. Fast greens with a lot of slope added to the challenge. Thanks Golfnow for the great deal.
