Rating 72.3

Lake Mills Golf Club first opened in 1927, making it one of the area's oldest courses. The original nine-hole course was shaped and molded from gently rolling farmland. The course eventually expanded to a full 18 holes and has undergone other major renovations since it first opened though it still retains the same traditional character as the original course. At just over 6,700 yards from the tips, the course has several holes that will please long hitters. The occasional water hazard comes into play as well as several strategically placed bunkers. Mature trees also line the fairways, demanding accuracy. Lake Mills Golf Club has a fair amount of challenges in store but beginners should still feel confident about approaching it, especially with four different sets of tees available.

The course description that I read on line was accurate

I found that this course was a nice challenge for a higher handicapper like myself but I was able to play it with confidence.

Different than any course I have seen

I live an hour away and had this course on my list to play this season, so went with my friend, What to say about this Unique Course. It is something like someone put in there back yard or there property. Pines make this course play straight on the front first couple holes and on back front and back nine holes. This course has smaller than average greens, which putt slower than normal greens, if you do not reach the greens in two you will use an L wedge to get on the greens. Not long, has water around the course, Bunkers are ugly, not sand but dirt and sand. Cut fairways to plush grass. This course is cut out of new housing development now. Not long course but has one long par 5 on back side. friendly staff and owner. nice carts, has par 4 11th hole that makes a complete bend. I holed out a nice A wedge at 45 yards here to shoot birdie on this hole and pin was tucked in right corner hardest pin placement on hole not a big green. My golf Buddy kept saying this course is wierd. And I agreed, something out of Adam Sandler movie is how I describe this course. Did I mention the greens are slower, and so small. Oh I did. and they are. The new owner is making this course nicer. It is seeing the love this course needs to be a want to play course. Try it, its different. If you do, you will see what I mean.

Good course at a good rate.

Fairways ans some greens hard due to lack of watering. Front nine tougher than the back. Early morning tee off provided fast play and good price. Nice clubhouse facility.

Excellent value

The staff was very friendly. The fairways and the greens were in excellent condition. The course provides a good challenge and the price was a very good value.

Will play here again and do recommend it to others.

A work in progress

I played this course for the first time in six years and even though it has made some great strides, it's still a work in progress. There is a lot of dust, dirt & dead grass on and around the holes and some of the fairways are hard as rocks. I was shocked to see how hard the ground was on most of the tee boxes. It was difficult to almost impossible to push a tee into the ground. With a little more love this could be a wonderful old course to play...but it's not there yet!

Two Different Courses

Much of the course seems to have been around for a long time, and that part posed some tough hazards- lots of trees, water, and narrow fairways. But we crossed roads several times to reach what appeared to be a newer section. These holes were much more open, and easier to play. The course was generally in good condition, especially the greens. The exception was on hole #17, which had what appeared to be two sand traps which no longer were filled with sand. I landed in one of them, and there was just a mixture of weeds, barren ground, and a bit of sand. Thankfully, this was not the norm, but it's a spot they ought to clean up.

Fun course

The only thing is that the directions to each hole could be better. Crossing streets and not knowing if that is the correct way to go should be addressed.

Nice layout plays hard from Blue tees

Course is nice but they do not mark there flags so you do not know if the flags are in the back or front of the greens. Makes it hard to judge your irons unless you have a range finder.

Freindly Course

I showed up early for my tee time, but was allowed to tee off right away. The course was nice, but harder than I am used to from the white tees. high-handicappers should probably play the gold tees.
