St. Germain Municipal Golf Club
Played On 08/24/2019Never again!
This course is the perfect example of the over-designed layout that is ruining golf today. With the majority of the greens elevated and some ridiculously so, you would think that there would be an avenue to hit a reasonable approach shot to the green. Not here! Most of the holes on this course have no fairway to the green, with the last 50-70 yards an uphill mountainside of rough, so that anything other than the perfect shot gets caught up with no chance to get on. Ridiculous layout, stupid tight off the tee in places, and play was terribly slow. If you want nearly 5 hours of frustration, this is the golf course for you!

Played On 08/09/2019Great course, almost...
Absolutely love this course, with the exception of hole 14. It is simply an awful golf hole, with a huge swamp to cross on the second shot. Anything other than a perfect tee shot requires a lay up (wasted stroke) with a 130-150 yard shot to an elevated green. Just plan on a double bogey (or worse), which puts a dent in an otherwise good round. Otherwise a great course with a challenging layout and a very friendly staff!
Excellent! Thank you for your 5-star rating! Please book another round with us soon at Blackstone Golf Club!

Played On 07/26/2019Not a fan!
We pulled into the parking lot just as a 6-some was going down #1 fairway, so we figured an outing was finishing up. So they paired a single with us, which was fine, and thought we would make great time once the outing was done. And you guessed it, followed the 6-some for 12 holes before finally driving off the course. Greens were unbearably slow, layout is hokey -- there is so much up down, in and out that it is difficult to gauge distance on many shots. There is not a single thing about this course that I enjoyed, and I wouldn't go back if it was free. My favorite part of the course was leaving it...

Played On 07/15/2018Disappointed!
Gonna partially chalk this up to recent heavy rains, but after reading excellent reviews about this course, was expecting much more! Signage indicating where the next hole was located was non-existent; in front of the greens was over-watered, so the ball hit soft and nearly plugged often; sand was very hard; and greens were the slowest I have played this year, and two were wet where sprinklers apparently malfunctioned. The highlight for me was the carts, right up until our GPS unit stuck and wouldn't update. At one point we were still 100 yards from the green and the cart locked up, forcing us to back up for 150 yards before we could use the cart in forward again. Staff inside was not friendly, and one of the workers didn't even know where the first tee was. It was sunny and hot on a Sunday afternoon, and they pulled the bev cart by 2 p.m. DID NOT enjoy this golf experience!
Viroqua Hills Golf Course
Played On 07/10/2018Will Be Back
Didn't like a couple of the blind shots on the original 9, but overall this course was a nice surprise. Greens rolled very true, and the sand was the best/most consistent of any course I have played this year. I will definitely avoid men's day next time as the pace of play was very slow, but will definitely be playing this course again!
Abbey Springs Golf Course
Played On 08/21/2015Tough greens
Overall layout was challenging, but for the most part enjoyable. The course was very well maintained, though I was not a fan of the greens. Despite carding my first hole-in-one (hole 6) I had 8 three-putts, most for birdie where I ended up making bogey. Keeping it below the hole was of extreme importance, though even then at times the greens were borderline ridiculous to navigate. Great views, nice course, but REALLY tough greens!
Woodlands at Lawsonia Golf Course
Played On 07/10/2015Done with Lawsonia!
Rocks in the sand traps and rock hard greens that won't hold a wedge from 100 yards. Used to love these two courses but not going backwards!
I think you have the wrong course. While a couple holes are elevated, they all have well groomed fairways and aprons leading to the greens. The greens are neither too large or too small. You can land an approach shot on the green and it will stick. This is one of my favorite courses, beautifully maintained and fun to play.
