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.

Great value in the summer

The course was awesome but I don't think it was in it's best condition. Some greens had severe dirt spots and were a little bumpy, but overall the course was in solid shape for August. Good tee boxes, good fairways. The off course amenities were cool but most of them were closed while we were golfing. Red's restaurant made some good burgers and definitely had good drinks.

Overbooked on Holiday

I was very excited to play this course as I drive by it often and it always looks great. Made a tee-time for mid morning on July 4th and it was slower than rounds in the winter when all the snow bird take over. I understand the need to make money but when you are waiting 10+ minutes on every shot in 113 degree heat, it’s not good for your body. If someone were to have a heatstroke in those conditions who knows what the legal ramifications would be. Had a bad experience solely due to the pace of play. Will not book mid morning again. Greens were decent, fairways were a little dry in places as you would expect in the summer, amenities were great. Friendly pro shop staff. Will try again some time down the road.

The mighty have fallen

Wigwam used to be the pinnacle summer golf courses. Just 4-5 years ago, all three courses used to be lush with Bermuda, greens responsive and rolling smooth, tee boxes in as good a shape as can be, a great 19th hole with good aesthetics, food, and beer. Now, the only thing that’s good is 19th hole. The fairways are blown and explode on impact. Literally sending chunks of dirt all over the place. Tee boxes are somewhat okay. Greens literally have mushrooms growing all over them - likely due to overwatering or lack of aeration? Either way, it’s an eyesore and also causes misdirected putts. So disappointed with this experience. I hold Wigwam to a much higher standard than this. I will not play again this summer. Hopefully they will find a way to clean this up for upcoming season. Too many events hosted here to have the course so poorly maintained.

Beautiful course, but….

My only issue is with how the starter handled my tee time. I booked as a single and got to the course early. My tee time was 9:50 and at 9:30 I was given 2 options. Either tee off then as a single, behind 2 foursomes of guy’s in their 70’s, or wait 20 minutes for my threesome. If I waited, I was going to be made to share a cart with some random guy as well! Although both options kinda sucked, I chose the former and from the second hole on , I was waiting at least 5 minutes for EVERY shot! Made a 4 hour round feel like 5 hours.

Tough pin locations

Pin locations were tough. Some of the greens were pretty rough. Grass was getting mowed but some holes had thick rough. Long course.

The entire course was in great shape. Greens very quick. Hard to keep your ball on the greens as they were fairly hard but pretty smooth. Staff helpful including the starter. He explained all about the course, rules, cart person, etc. Will definitely be going back. Price definitely worth the money.

The Wigwam Gold has great potential but the pin placements in light of the fact that the greens were undulating and fast was not fair. I couldn't believe some of the pin placements!! I have accepted the fact that the green normally don't hold because of their hardness but to add ridiculous pin placements is too much.

Greens rough

This is a classic course i have played several times. The price was great. The condition of the tee boxes and fairways was good. The greens had many, many pitch marks that had not been fixed.
