The BOG

The course is great. In excellent shape, my only complaint was the pins were in unmanageable spots on the green. Greens keeper revenge or something like that. Not an actual complaint it made it interesting.

I hadn't played the Bog for a few years and it was great to be back. Everything about the course was excellent. I am not a fan of the no carts in the parking lot rule and bag drop off setup but understand why. The hot deal price was amazing and I will definitely be playing it again.

I love this place. They are getting close to shutting down for the season so the bar and grill was closed.

But the halfway house which is right near the practice area was open. No big deal. Course conditions were good. A lot of players not taking bunkers. The new entitled golfers now days. 🤣

The course layout and conditions were outstanding on this early October day. I’ve played here on and off since the course opened, and its quality continues to impress.

Unfortunately, the customer service has too often fallen short. Over the years, I’ve gotten the impression that some staff believe the course’s layout and conditions are enough to earn your business, without making much effort to provide courteous, welcoming service. Today’s interactions with the pro shop, bag and cart staff, and snack house staff at the turn reinforced that impression.

The beverage cart attendant and starter were the notable exceptions. Both were friendly, and I appreciated their hospitality. A course this good deserves consistently good service to match. That’s what makes the experience so disappointing: the setting and quality of the golf create an opportunity for something exceptional, yet indifferent service leaves that potential unfulfilled. After playing here for so many years, it’s frustrating to see the same missed opportunity persist. A little courtesy and genuine appreciation for customers would go a long way toward making the entire experience as memorable as the course itself.

Rangers glasses were so tight on his face that he couldn’t think. Was harassing us about slow play, when we were clearly waiting on the group in front of us. The next three holes he watched us and sat directly where our tee shots were going. When you’re paying that much money to play a course that’s the last thing you want to deal with. Not to mention the greens were in horrible shape, holes looked like they were cut last week and scuffs everywhere. Such a shame because the course has a very unique layout.

Course is well maintained. It is short but narrow so you have to make shots. Greens are fair.

The scenario there is really nice and have a nice practice center.

We played on a very hot day--real feel temp was 107 degrees. Not super busy, but had a two ball in front of us and they had a four ball in front of them. The foursome was exceedingly slow. The two ball in front of us wasn't setting any records either. Slow more 'seasoned' gentlemen who seemed to need to look at every two footer. The Kohler courses are packed and don't have pace of play issues like that because they MANAGE the pace. Ranger was on the driving range and thats where he stayed. Never saw him once. Cart girl, who sold me a melted Snickers bar said it wasn't busy in front of the foursome. So why are we playing so slowly and taking 5 hourse on a hot day? I suggested to the cart girl that she maybe should put the candy bars in the cooler. Ahhhh, maybe she said. Maybe start managing your golf course and paying attentioin to detail and we'll be back. But not after that debacle.

Strategic play is needed for this one. I barely pulled my driver all day. Short fairway par 4s are not easy, especially when you have so many blind shots. First time playing this course, and it definitely wasn’t easy. Fun little challenge, with great Wisconsin hospitality from the staff. Water was cold, beer was colder.

No reall complaints other than pace of play. It was terrible. A twosome in front of our threesome, was held up by a four ball. We ended up playing with a single who was waiting forever on the fourth hole. so he joined us. We still played faster than the two some ahead of us, but, according to the bev cart girl, the foursome in front of them was 'very slow'. Where was the course marshal? Saw him on the driving range at the beginning of the round. Never saw him after that. Terrible pace.

Made a mistake and underestimated the teatime by two hours on a busy Friday. Rollie the starter was able to get us out in a completely crowded schedule. Great experience would recommend.

I love the bog it's like a combination of the river / prairie course at Kohler and Highlands at Grand Geneva.

Not a lot of trees for shade but plenty to hit into.

I could not recommend this course more highly although in mosquito season I would rather play the Bull in Sheboygan Falls.

Course is a magnificent track with a very unique, fun, yet challenging layout especially for first time golfers, however becomes more and more enjoyable with every round as you become familiar. Pace is always good except around several par 3’s you can expect a backup, almost every round I’ve played here has involved waiting on 11 tee.

Course conditions are always usually pretty great here, as a former assistant super my judgement on my last round was that some of the bunkers got a little carried away with added sand, resulting in pretty heavy pillowy sand that can be quite challenging to recover from.

Looking forward to my next round at The Bog!

They need to account for the fact most of there clients are slow and elderly. Book tee times farther apart.

Better know the course to score. Tricky gteens to read. One small mistaken aim can ruin your score.
