The course feels like a hybrid golf club. It can challenge the better golfers and also plays easy enough for the average player. The front nine is fairly open with wide fairways. Water only comes into play on three holes. The back nine however will test you with tighter fairways and water on all nine holes.
The round starts off with comfortable holes that let you warm up. When you get to number eight that's when things change. The entire left side of the hole is bordered by water. It's a Wisconsin rendition of number eighteen at Pebble Beach. Holes twelve through fourteen are locally called "Amen Corner". You have the chance to post good scores on these holes or they can jump up and bite you. Thirteen is a great hole that challenges you and is absolutely beautiful. Hole eighteen was especially challenging with lots of water up towards the green and placed in just the right spots.
There is plenty of elevation, but not on the fairways. You won't have to worry about hitting a nice shot, only to walk up to a uphill, downhill, or side-hill lie. Off the fairways and that's a whole nother story. The tee boxes were pretty disappointing. It was an adventure finding a flat lie on many of them. Tee boxes, and my abs, should be flat. Also be careful to use your scorecard to take note of the water hazards, the signs at the tee boxes UNFORTUNATELY don't show the water but at least the score cards do. The course would be easy to walk, but carts are very reasonable. The pro shop was very well stocked for the space available and last year was the #2 "green" (meaning pro shop at a course) Callaway dealer in the state.
The food in the clubhouse gets an A +. The menu has lots to offer and at very reasonable prices. That's not just personal opinion either. They have won awards for the food at the course. The Friday fish fry is good enough to make it a great day no matter how you play.
