Rating 71.6

Glacier Wood Golf Club has a unique landscape that was carved by ice and earth. The scenic course sprawls across diverse terrain that combines open, grassy meadows, with mature forests and marshland. Sweeping elevation changes and glacial rocks that frame the course provide stunning views from tee to green. The more open holes have a spacious feel while the wooded ones are invitingly secluded. Golfers will have numerous strategically placed bunkers to contend with as well as many water hazards. The par-3 12th hole is the course's signature. This stunning hole incorporates dramatic elevation changes, forest, and wetlands for a challenge that you won't soon forget. The 15th is another hole that is as equally memorable, a u-shaped par 5 that is a double dogleg with a steeply sloped green.

Beautiful, challenging course. Excellent opportunity to combine nature and golf.

Beautiful course, that utilizes and enhances its natural beauty. Challenging layout rewards precise shots and penalizes mistakes. Course in excellent shape. Definitely deserves its 4 1/2 rating and 2009 award as Best Muny in Wisconsin. Staff is very friendly and helpful.

Course has great views

Great course. Problems we had playing on a Friday was we allowed four two somes to play through, which caused our round to take five hours.
Also all soda machines were out of order and there were no drink carts.

Golf course in very nice shape. Greens were consistent.

Glacier Woods was in very good shape. The greens had no dead spots and were very consistent. Fairways and tees were fine.

The course is a good test of golf. Pace of play was very good.

Only complaint I have is the bunkers have rocks and stones in them - can be hazardous to your golf clubs.

This course is a hidden gem.

Great course out in the middle of nowhere. Outstanding conditioning and real variety of golf shots. Greens are impeccable. Only downside is a ridiculous 15th hole with a next to impossible 2nd shot.

Beautiful, "woodsy" course with some challenging holes.

We love this course. It is always in good condition & you can feel the pride everyone has that works there. The pro is one of the nicest persons you could find anywhere.
