About

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.

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.
