Koshkonong Mounds Country Club
About
Tucked amongst the rolling hills along the eastern shores of its namesake lake, Koshkonong Mounds Country Club pays homage to the Winnebago tribes that are native to the area. Koshkonong is a word from their language that means "these waters we live on." The club was established in 1870 on land that was once known as the country's premier duck hunting destination. The golf course was constructed in 1922 and still stands as Fort Atkinson's only 18-hole layout. The historic Indian effigy mounds were carefully preserved and incorporated into the course as navigational hazards. The golf course is a formidable test in addition to being scenic with plenty of blinds shots in store thanks to the dramatic elevation changes. Golfers should also be prepared for uneven lies. Both distance and accuracy are required for scoring well at Koshkonong Mounds Country Club.

good layout but underfunded
saw good reviews on golfnow and had good price so booked it. based on the previous reviews and course website i was expecting a bit more than i got. greens were supposed to roll ten but could not possibly have been more than 7(i am on a groundscrew at a private country club and i know green speeds), which is good because the greens were far too steep to ever roll 10. fairways were long and shaggy and fresh cups had not even been cut(it was a saturday!) Course layout is great as it has many tall mature trees(course was built in 1924), however they obviously just do not have the money to maintain it at a high level. This is fine i just had higher expectations after reading the reviews and looking at the course website.
lots of mature trees and sloping terrain
This course can be unforgiving and greens are difficult
Challenging course in very good condition
We teed off on time and finished in four hours not counting a long rain delay at the turn. The amazing thing is that the course was very playable on the back nine after the heavy rain. The greens were in excellent condition and the traps drained well. We would definitely recommend this course
Well-kept, Fun for all
Plenty of trees and hills make you think about every shot on this course. Some areas are rather tight, with holes right on top of each other. Others are much more expansive and isolated. The course is well-maintained, greens, fairways, rough, etc.
Conditions were great considering all the rain this area has been getting.
I've always loved this course. It's in great shape even with all the rain this area has been getting lately. It's always nice to get a reduced price since both my husband and I do a lot of golfing. Thanks,
Would play again
Good greens, great condition, a course map is a must if playing for the first time.
Great Experience - We will go back!
We were impressed with the grounds and the overall maintenance of the course. There were beautiful flowers. The course is challenging, but in a good way. It is unique that the greens might be at an unexpected elevation (uphill or downhill) and this was really cool aspect of this course. Because there are very large hills, I would really recommend riding and not walking this course. We had a cart, and while we are athletic, that would have been a bit much for a Sunday afternoon. We went to get a cocktail halfway through and the clubhouse was very nice. It was not expensive and the bartender was pleasant and polite. We plan to go back to KMCC for sure. Thanks to Golfnow and KMCC for a great Sunday afternoon.
