Rating 75.0

The Gold Course is one of three 18-hole courses offered at the Wigwam Resort, which was named one of Golf Magazine's "Silver Medal Resorts." Golf Digest cited the Gold Course as one of the best public courses in the state. Mature trees are present on all of the courses, as well as winding creeks that create water hazards, which come into play on several holes. There are also strategically placed sand bunkers present on the course. The rolling landscape of the course causes elevation changes that can affect shots. The Wigwam Resort facility also has a putting green and chipping area.

Gold it isn't

Hard bunkers with limited sand, sparce rough (if you can call it that), good course if you want to swing hard and chase your ball without caring where it goes. GPS provided is ancient and limited, will not provide you with green views. Not typical for a good resort to have a poor course. Got a good rate, so acceptable.

Excellent summer rate, nice course

Course was in great shape considering an aeration a couple of weeks ago. Greens were not too bumpy and rolled true. They were still doing some aeration in the rough on sides of some fairways but the staff was always considerate of golfers and stopping machines and staying clear. Pin placements on may greens on GOLD course were close to edges of greens which added some difficulty to many holes. Pace of play was excellent for my round. Great summer rate.

First time on Gold Course

I have played WigWam a couple of times when I lived closer. This is the first time I have played the Gold course and found it to be in good shape with very fast greens. There were a couple of things that made the course less attractive. The water feature on hole two was almost drained and there were a couple of holes that had some severely overgrown area's near greens. Overall the course was in really good shape and fun to play.

Welcomed by everyone but one

Had a great time through my round. The shop was stacked with great selection and fairly priced. The rate to play 18 holes was incredible. The only bad part about the course/play was how the gentlemen guiding us into tee 1 rushed us, kind of messed with everyone for the first three holes. Also made snide remarks about our play after we drove off first tee. Other than one rude employee i thoughrely enjoyed this course.

Pathetic

The slowest pace of play I’ve ever seen. I am 27 years old and have played the game for 20 years. It was embarrassing to play such a poorly managed 6 hour round. This course is better than the staff allows it to be. Get better

I like playing the gold course because of its layout. The course has been in much better condition than yesterday. The rough was especially in poor condition.
