Washington County Golf Course
About
Located just northwest of downtown Milwaukee, Washington County Golf Club (formerly known as Family Park Golf Course) feels much further thanks to its seclusion in the beautiful Kettle Moraine area. Arthur Hills designed the course, which is ranked second in the nation among municipal golf course in Golf Digest. The layout sprawls across wide-open, gently rolling terrain. The subtle contours of the landscape provide a few difficult lies and they can also make the greens hard to read but overall it is a course that most players can approach with confidence. Thanks to a versatile layout it appeals to a wide range of skill levels and it is an ideal spot for tournaments and events. Over the years Washington County Golf Club has hosted several championships including the U.S. Open Qualifying Round and the Wisconsin PGA Championship.

Fun course if you stay in the fairways!
Excellent practice area. Greens were perfect. Bent
grass fairways are excellent.
Great course
Nice conditions, great pace. Great value through Golfnow.
great fun
enjoyable setting with many challenging holes, even from the white tees. great practice area
Can't beat it for a county course!
The course was in great shape. You will need a GPS and/or range finder because there are not enough yardage markers and the carts do not have it.
Excellent condition. Great turrain.
Excellent layout. Pristine condition. Very challenging. Love it every time I play it.
ENJOYABLE AS ALWAYS AT WCGC
JUST A PLEASURE TO PLAY HERE ALWAYS AND LOVE THE HOLE LAYOUTS. IF YOU PLAY HERE MORE OFTEN ROTATE YOUR TEE BOXES FOR THE HOLES CHANGE DRAMATICALLY IF YOU DO SO.
What a fun round...
This was the first time I played the course, and found it both beautiful and challenging. I teed of at 4:00 hoping to get in 15 holes or so. I linked up with another solo golfer and was able to finish in just under 3 hours and was home well before dark. I have played maybe 15 different courses this year and this course was by far in the best condition. I will be back to play again soon.
One of the better county courses to be played
The staff was very friendly, the course was in great shape, fast greens, manicured fairways, sand that was fluffy like a sand trap should be, Great course to play for $60.00 would have been disappointed if I had paid full price.
good course
Experience was good, but my confimation indicated a $15.80 on line payment. They knew nothing of this and charged full amount. I expect there will not be a chage on my master card. Please confirm.
great course slow pace
Get started before the couple's and seniors start.
hidden gem!
nice layout, well maintained golf course
greens were on the faster side which is nice for a change
Worth the drive from MKE
Great course - great value due to GolfNow's buy one-get one free offer.
interesting, fair course
Very nice practice area, interesting, fair course, well maintained, nice pace of play.
Great course.
Course is in great shape. good pace of play. Would recommend to anyone wanting to enjoy a weekend round with their friends! Used the blue tees, but probably should have played from the blacks.
This is a great course and is challenging. Golfers should play from the correct tees
The front nine took almost 3 hours as we had two groups of 4 ahead of us that were playing a scramble for some reason. At the turn the back nine took less than 90 minutes. Great way to spend Fathers Day with my son
A staple in my rotation
I like this course. A LOT. Challenging, but not overly punitive. Always well kept. The only thing keeping it from a "pristine" maintenance rating was all the goose poo on 14 green from the several families of geese that live there. Value becomes great when you find a deal for $45 or less. Always recommended. Can be VERY windy, and there are no rain shelters to speak of.
This course is a gem!
I love this course. Pristine condition, friendly staff, and can be as difficult as you want with multiple tees to choose from. A lot of deep fescue grass, which is punishing, but nice wide fairways give you a fair chance. Links style course, with few trees, so the wind is a big factor. Love the dog legs and the risk/reward features of many of the holes. This course is very nice, and affordable. Much like Broadlands and the Oaks.
Beautiful, Wide open, challenging and windy!
Great golf course. You're on a hill so the course isn't protected from the wind. It's a great course to play if the bugs come out because the wind will always blow. No shade so ride and use sun protection on a hot day.
I make pilgramage to northern WI every year to play this course. Very nice. B.G., Milwaukee,WI
I wanted to show my friend this course. He's new to golf and has never played there. We played on Memorial Day 2013. The course looked great considering the visability from the fog, rain, wind (up to 25 MPH). After jittering into the club house for a great Brat lunch (w/ chips,pickle and grapes) we went out again to attempt, Mother nature. By the 13 hole she beat us. So we called it a day.
Oh well. What more can you expect on a Memorial Day in WI. Maybe next time.
Nice course. Very happy with conditions
Worth the money! We had a great experince for the group
