Fire Ridge Golf Club in Grafton, Wisconsin is a public course but it boasts the amenities and service of a private country club. It is not as well known as some other courses in the area and might possibly one of the state's best-kept secrets. The golf course stretches to more than 7,000 yards from the tips and was ranked as one of Wisconsin's top 20 toughest courses. Mature trees shape the numerous doglegs and there are also water hazards that come into play throughout Fire Ridge. There is an interesting mix of holes including challenging par 4s, with the most difficult being the 16th. There are no surprises on this tricky hole because it's tough enough on its own. Golfers should aim to keep it in the fairway and place the second shot below the hole, making sure not to miss the green long or else they're be facing a fast downhill chip shot.

Poor Condition

I have played at this course since it originally opened as CCW and this was by far the worse condition I have seen. The greens were quite poor and the tee boxes often beat up. The greens had many large ball marks, dead/bare areas and multiple grass varieties.

In addition, one of the maintenance guys swore at me for hitting into him while he was cutting the fairway. First, my ball landed roughly 100 yards from him and second, even if I do take some fault for this he handled it very poorly.

I won't be back until I know the condition is better.

good course little pricey

When I was there the fairways were in great shape.Greens were just aerated, so could not really comment on them. You must be on right part of green, because greens very fast and expect alot of 3 putts, if not more. Not a lot of flat putts here. The one par 3 on back looked like it had some kind of disease, but overall had a great time, but maybe a little overpriced for this course

Good course, rate a bit high.

Course is in reasonable shape, but the first green has some problems. Rates are a bit high, so I would only go on fall rates or a deal.

Beautiful course but greens overplayed and poor shape.

We loved this course,even though the greens were bumpy from being overplayed. Very scenic. Fair course for women, too.

So So course

They offer a deal for about 45 dollars for 18. The course is in good condition offers a variety of shots, such as blind shots, hitting over water shots. Lacks "must play holes". There isn't a hole that stands out to me, that I have to come back to that course to play again because it is so awesome. I wasn't disappointed with the course at all, but I don't feel the urge to golf there every year. In conclusion the course is kept up its definitely worth doing it once and its worth a drive of about 45 mins to an hour but I wouldn't drive any further then that. Its one of those courses that is worth playing at least once, you wont be disappointed but you may or may not feel the need to come back again.
