Highlands at Grand Geneva Resort & Spa

About
Grand Geneva Resort & Spa boasts two championship golf courses. The Brute Course is a formidable test while the Highlands Course presents a more player-friendly layout though it still has plenty of challenges in store. Jack Nicklaus and Pete Dye teamed up to design the Highlands. It is a traditional links-layout that is tumbles across glacier-carved hills and valleys. It perfectly mimics the feel of courses of the British Isles especially on the undulating greens that are flanked with bunkers. The course is playable for all skill levels though low handicappers looking for a challenge might want to tackle the Brute. The resort has garnered a popular following amongst both locals and visitors. Conde Nast Traveler ranked it in the top ten northern US golf resorts and that is just one of the many accolades Grand Geneva Resort & Spa has received.

Nice course.
Fun course with great conditions. I took my daughter with me who is disabled and doesn’t walk. This was no problem for anyone there. I was treated as if they did this everyday. I’m so grateful. I play every week, and this course was very nice! Can’t wait to play the BRUTE.
Great Time
The course was great shape. Hole 4 is a short par 3 but its a fun hole. On the back hole 11 is just fun and hard. just a great course had a blast.
Great course!! Pace could be improved.
Course was in great shape! Can’t say anything negative about it, other than we sat for about 5 minutes on every tee waiting to hit. One hole we were notified that we were 15 minutes behind pace. We didn’t hit our tee shots on that hole until we were notified about being 28 minutes behind pace. Needs improvement.
First time here - hope it won't be the last!
Our first trip to Lake Geneva and we played several nice courses but this one was top notch. Very friendly staff seems truly engaged in making people feel welcome. Course was in great condition. Fairways appear to be wide open but the fairway cut is narrow so good shots are required to score well. The ruff is deep!
I'm not a great golfer but my wife and I enjoyed our round. Beautiful day, beautiful course and we saw almost no one else the entire time. Pace of play was quick. Played our round in under 3 1/2 hours.
Great Early Season Conditions
Great early season round at Grand Geneva - Highlands. Course is in solid shape with greens running as true as you will find for April in Wisconsin.
Highlands
I didn’t like it when it was the Briar Patch. Now years later and after lots of renovation I love this course. Overall a great facility.
