Style Traditional
Par 72
Length 7345 yards
Slope 137
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.

Not the best first impression..

So when I showed up I figured there was going to be a little bit of a frost delay because of the cold morning.. (it would be nice to get an email, but not a big deal) then I checked in and they told me I was going to be on a totally different course then what i paid for because of a tournament that got pushed back.. ( and again it would've been nice to get and email/phone call telling me that) so instead of getting to play the gold course which is what I paid for and is just over 7300 yds they put me on the blue course which play 6000 from the tips. And to top it all off it was backed up all day. Hole 2 had 4 groups waiting at the tee with one on the green.. (never seen that before) I was told by a couple of people that it's not normally like this, but either way I probably won't be back.

Good course. Terrible pace.

Very happy with the condition of the course. Fun, challenging, and very unique. Disappointing that there was no marshal enforcing pace of play. 5 hour round. Group in front of us was very slow and no one in front of them for 3 holes.. Where was the marshal?

Elevated greens

Course was in fantastic shape. Only complaint was I believe they left the sprinklers on overnight on the back 9. Quite a few holes overly watered however that’s not normal and I don’t at least I hope not to see that again

Overwatering on back nine

Course setup and general condition was great! !! One HUGE complaint was I believe the grounds keeper overwatered the back nine of golf course OR maybe sprinklers got left on overnight. Standing water on course fairways, rough, and cart path. very sloppy and muddy !! Spoke with staff and members and they said it was unusual. I will definitely be back to play again !!!

Gold Course is a real test

Gold course is a great test of golf. Long even from the forward tees. Don't play gold unless you can drive it at least 260 yards. Had a great time for the first time there.

Garbage staff

Disgraceful golf course abuses retired old women and doesn't show them courtesy or appreciation doesn't help them get from A to B if they need help walking doesn't let them ride along with you so they can have a good day and be outside. Terrible quality course. Terrible greens. Terrible Pace. What a disrespectful joint. I help nobody else plays this golf course and it goes out of business. A shame to yourself. Treat old women like that
