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.

Best round ever

Hard to complain when you shoot your best round ever. Shot a 76 4 over. Hard course but if you play smart it is manageable. Will play again for sure

Concrete greens

The gold course is in great shape send traps are OK but the greens need more water on them not even a ball mark one when the ball hits the green it’s like concrete no fun to play on concrete I recommend more water on the greens the red course I’d recommend to play more softer greens overall good price

Cups Disappointing

Everything was great about the Gold Course until we got to the greens. A piece of foam was placed in the cup rising 2 inches above the ground so the ball wouldn’t fall in. Hit it and go to the next hole was the rule. They should have cut it an inch below the cup to allow the ball to fall in the hole. Everything else was fantastic and I will play again after the precautions are lifted.

Challenging yet fun golf course

Nicely groomed fairways and greens, a lot of bunkers and water which makes Wig Wam Gold a nice challenge.

An enjoyable day on the course

fairways were fairly long and rough was pretty long as well-probably due to recent rains and unable to cut grass

due to it being wet

Greens had some bare areas (mostly be the edges) and were somewhat slower than many other courses in the valley

Course is fairly long but many of the holes seemed to blend into each other and were not very memorable

pace of play was ok-approx 4.25 hours for 18 holes

Staff was very friendly and overall was an enjoyable

experience

Golfed as a twosome and got paired with an very enjoyable twosome which made the day very pleasant

Very fast round

Greens in good shape. Fairways firmness was good after heavy rain two days ago. Be prepared for thin lies on the bunker. Not horrible but tough to adjust to. Would definitely play again. Fair value at ~$120 per round.
