Woodlands at Lawsonia Golf Course

The Woodlands course at Lawsonia is drop-dead gorgeous, with wonderful hole layouts and great views of Green Lake. The greens are fast but true and overall the course was in great shape. The two notable exceptions were several of the sand traps, which could be categorized an under repair, and the aeration of the tees on the front 9. But the latter was really a timing issue, since it's a regular part of course maintenance in the fall. Still, it's one of my favorite courses in the state, and due all the accolades showered on it by Golf Digest!

Great shape with fast greens and scenic holes.Many doglegs out 200 plus yards.

Always love to play this course with it's diverse and scenic holes and challenging layout!

The course was great and challenging
The staff was great we had car issues and we were late and they went out of there way to make sure we had a great experience

Course can be challenging and the greens tricky but what a fun day of golf !!! Course is in great shape, friendly staff and what a beautiful setting on Green Lake

My wife & I enjoyed a great day of golf on the Woodlands course. Oceans of sand greeted us but we loved it regardless. Thanks for the fun day.

Course was in excellent shape. Greens were closely mown,fast but not unfair. Would play the Woodlands more if we were closer to the course.

We have played the Woodlands course several times over the past years and always enjoy it. The course rewards you for staying in the fairway and even then trees can be in your way on the next shot. While I gave the course a very good rating there are a couple of cons.
The sand in the bunkers is not up to par for a course of this level. The sand was hard and hard fairly large pebbles in it.
It is nearly impossible to stop a putt on the 18th green without having it roll off the front of the green.

The course is in GREAT shape. The greens were super.

I would consider myself very lucky to live only 15 minutes away from Lawsonia. Very affordable rates during the fall. Course in great shape and the staff was very friendly. Only compliant is that that the 18th green is way too fast, making for circus golf.

Not too long, but pretty tight and very difficult and fast greens.

Fairways were aerated, otherwise no complaints on the course. Played as a twosome and had no delays which allowed us to finish in less than 4 hrs. Just great!

Staff appeared disinterested, cart lady was rude, course was in poor condition overall. Sand traps appeared to have had no attention for weeks. Greens were good. Nice layout. Too bad it is not kept in better condition. Course workers in the way several times. Painfully slow pace of play. No rangers to move along the folks that have no respect for others. Too many other nice courses around for me to waste my money on this one. Do yourself a favor and play somewhere else.

There is not a more beautiful course in Wisconsin. Great day and great weather. Will be back!

very nice condition , great elevation changes lots of woods, bring plenty of golf balls big green very true.

Staff- improved from my last visit to this course when I played the links course.

Tee boxes- Not level patchy grass
Fairways- patchy not well kept
Bunkers- no crisp edges, a lot of the bunkers are not raked
Greens- Beat up full of mud spots
Holes- There is a really nice elevated par 3 hole on this course which is there signature hole of the Woodland 18 holes and one of the better par 3 hole's I ever played. There is also another a nice split fairway hole with a shot over a ravine that sticks out to me.

Price I paid $55

Conclusion I would recommend trying this course but not for a price higher then $50 a person. The staff is hit or miss on this course, BUT DO NOT PAY FULL PRICE FOR THIS COURSE YOU WILL BE DISAPOINTED.

I always enjoy playing the Golf Courses at Lawsonia

For a deal I don't mind the long drive to play what I feel is the better of the 2 courses. The Links gets the ratings, but if you love carved out of the forest golf this is the track to play. Bent grass fairways and greens, real sand in the bunkers.

Interesting course with each hole presenting a different challenge with sand , water and mature trees.
Course uses hilly terrain to create dramatic vistas and requires thoughtful approach shots.
Greens have challenging breaks but rolled smoothly.
A special place and a must play for serious golfers.

If you're looking for a well-maintained course with both beauty and a good challenge, this is one of the finest in the area! Rolling landscape, pristine greens, great staff. You won't be disappointed!
