Cold Water Canyon Golf Course at Chula Vista Resort
About
Cold Water Canyon Golf Course in the Wisconsin Dells has a layout that dates back to the 1920s, making it one of the oldest golf courses in the state. Originally a nine-hole course, it was expanded to a full 18 holes but the original layout was carefully preserved as the front nine. The back nine offers a completely different round with a Scottish-links design, however it manages to blend seamlessly with the classic layout of the first nine. Water hazards come into play on a few holes and there are strategically placed bunkers to contend with as well. The second half of Cold Water Canyon Golf Course is more challenging than the front but both are equally scenic. The golf course and the adjoining Chula Vista Resort are tucked away amidst thick forests of mature trees.

Very early season. Aerated greens from last season not quite filled in yet. A ton of on course maintenance has been done. Forest has been thinned and the long grass went through a prairie burn. Hundreds of balls exposed outside the fairways. Most looked like roasted marshmallows. I couldn’t resist hitting a few and they performed remarkably well.
Last day of operation (in Wisconsin)
Will be heading to Florida soon. What I anticipate is dormant grass with some overseeding and plenty of bare sand patches. Last open day here had rich green grass well maintained from tee through the green. Temperature in the mid 50s. If it weren’t for deer hunting season, we might be able to play longer. Thank you global warming.

Golf course in very good shape and greens very well maintained.We have very good time.Staff are very friendly.We play there again
Played a great round, Front nine is the original course, built in 1923, so there is a stark contrast between the front and the back, making for a fun round. conditions were fair, pin placements were challenging. overall good experience, coincidentally played my best round of the season.
Great Course! Just Need To Soft Some Of The Ground In Certain Places
Great course, front 9 is tight fairways w/ trees lined up & down the fairway more of an american golf style course. Back 9 is wayyy more open w/ fescue & sand trap trouble, more of a scottish style golf. Only thing I'd say was not ideal was the fairway from the front of the green to about 20-30 yards in front were rock solid, so if you hit your ideal distance EVERYTHING is hitting the ground an bouncing over the green kind of like hitting the cart path. Other then that course was amazing, pace of play was a little slow but it was a Sunday w warm weather what do you expect. 10/10 recommended
Worth the money
Course in good shape.
Pace was great.
Good value.
Review of Course
I always like this course. They have a few long par 5's, and a few par 4's with curves too. But it is close to my house, and inexpensive compared to others around plus, plus discount through Golf Now. It is a great course to play, and has a driving range too definitely worth playing.
Very nice and pace was great. Front 9 tight fairways and small greens since it is the old 9 hole and back 9 more open and larger greens. Totally different styles.
