With having 3 nine holes red, white and blue. I assumed we would play blue to red. Not the case though. Was not impressed with the white 9 holes but I will give it another chance

Course is good for walking as there are not too many hills, but there are enough hazards to make it interesting.

Warm and Sandy

A summer like day in early Spring must have been the reason all our golf balls searched for sand. The balls wanted to be on the beach? This course has more sand than your typical public course. With 3 nines it can give you variety too. Played White and Blue.

Nice Course

I've played a few rounds here this year and the course was in great shape. During the week it's not too crowded and you can usually play as a single or twosome without getting paired up with other people. The pace of play has been very good. Great value for price paid.

Bad experience

The worst golf experience of my life. The play was slow, but to be expected late in the day on a weekend.
A season pass holder (Tom) continually hit into our party. Very disappointing the course ranger allowed such behavior.
Would not recommend Ives Grove to anyone.

Less tree

For me, I like to have good environment to play golf. Ives grove is next to the highway , and in the course there are not a lot of trees lakes. It's like playing in the "desert ".

Rough needs to grow in

The fairways and greens were in good shape but the rough could be sparse in many places. This would cause the ball to fall into low spots between tuffs of grass.

Ives Grove

Had a great day at Ives, coarse is in real good shape except some of the 1st cut of rough was quite long and hard to hit out of. Greens are on the fast side but rolled very true. Great price on Golfnow.com and would highly suggest to get out there and play a round.

9 x 2 doesn't equal 18

Two of the three courses had outings on them, so we had to play the white course twice. It didn't say that on the website so since I already paid $5 for the tee time we went ahead and played; although I figured play would probably be slow, and it was.

Great Value for Money

Nice course layout. $25 for 18 holes with cart was excellent value for money. Foot prints remaining on some of the greens was annoying. Bunkers could use more sand.

Great course

Ives is a links style course. It does have some trees but most are not in play. Well bunkered. Greens are some of the finest in wisconsin and always in great shape, fast and true. Fairways well kept. You will enjoy your round here
