Cold Water Canyon Golf Course at Chula Vista Resort
Rating Snapshot
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.

Nice combination course
The staff was helpful when checking in due to club house construction and course renovations. Course was in good shape, a little dry toe to lack of snow this winter and rain this year. The greens were good and the rough was fair.It was breezy so I was able to explore some places I might not normally see.
i will certainly return and would recommend a visit if you are in the Dells area and are looking for a fairly priced course instead of over priced hype.
excellent deal good shape .
Great deal for a interesting short course. Would like to see some yardage info to hazards on scorecard.
good course for early season
good shape for early season some course redesign happening but not a problem will play again
Fun Course.
This is a fun course to play. The greens were smooth and fast. It is going through many new improvments right now gearing up for the tourest season. New club house.
November golf
It was a fun course.We enjoyed the course,and would play again.
Great fall rates
Course was in great condition for the fall. Rates are better than a lot of other courses at this time.
Great course
Well maintained with open fairways and not too many hazards. I really enjoy golfing here especially for the money!
Decided to play it spur of the moment
This course is not worth it. We decided to play it spur of the moment because the weather was so good. The front nine ruined it for us. It's a complete joke with blind shots and a par 5 the good players can't hit driver on unless you really want to bring a lot of trouble into play. To top it off we waited on EVERY shot. I WILL NOT BE BACK!
Great Sunday
Wife's first time at Chula. We had a great time. Good course for a beginner. Good price. Fun course. Good variance in different holes. Had fun.
Great little course
Short and straight but a fun little course. Several drivable par 4' s and some difficult par 3's. Actually a pretty course and played crazy fast. No really trouble holes and little woods in play
Nice Course, not overly challenging for average golfers
First time playing this course and I found it to be in excellent condition. The staff was very friendly and helpful to a last minute GolfNow reservation. This is not one of the more difficult courses but you will enjoy a pleasant round in a beautiful setting with rolling hills.
Fun Challenge
Great short course with character. Par 3's are the most difficult. A fun challenge and we'll maintained!
This course is two courses in one.
I play in the Wed. Seniors which adds to the overall enjoyment of the golfing. A great bunch of guys to share links time with. Staff always seems to be friendly and helpful. The course gives you old time golf on the front nine with a more links view on the back. Clubhouse burned down last year, can't wait to see how they replace it, if it follows the rest of the resort it will be very nice. There are three championship style courses in the Dells, this by far is the best value.
Friends loved it.
Great day for golf. Enjoyed a lot. Friends from Japan loved it.
Short and Gimmicky
Nice track for an older golfer who can make shots. Many short par 4's with elevation changes, doglegs, hazards, etc makes simple holes a bit more challenging. A good place to get a low score!
Two differing 9's
The front 9 has some challenging holes and plays a bit tight from the 3rd thru the 8th. The 9th and the back nine open up and becomes a links style course. My favorite hole is the short par 4 3rd hole which goes right and uphill to a small green. Great for a fader of the ball!
The only problem is that this course during the weekends gets backed up and a round can be close to 5 hours. All in all, a decent course and if the price is good, I would suggest going, particularly if it's during the middle of the week.
Looking forward to a new clubhouse, as the old one burned down over the winter.
Coldwater
Excellent time and course,, We will play it again soon.
The Canyon
Overall the course is pretty nice and in good shape. How ever their can be some confusion in taking cart paths to get to the right tee boxes. You can expect a pretty tight front nine while the back opens up quite a bit more but there is trouble if you don't hit it straight with a long rough and wasted bunkers.
Promising
There is a lot of construction going on to improve this course and that should really elevate my ratings when I come which I will due to the improvements to be. Disappointed the beer cart was never fully stocked with what was advertised
