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.

Great Muni Course!

No wonder this is the #1 muni in WI...challenging course and beautiful condition. Pace of play was the only thing that was not ideal...waiting on the group ahead of us and getting pressured and hit into consistently from behind.

Very accomadating staff

I purchased a tee time for 6:40 on GN. I thought it was for AM but when I arrived at the course I noticed on the confirming email it was for 6:40 PM. 2 other guys in my party were on their way to the course to play as well. I explained the situation to the gentlemen in the Pro Shop. and he allowed us to play the round at 6:50 AM even though they didn't open until 7:00 AM and it was a PM tee time. We appreciate the understanding and kind accommodations to allow us to play the round.

Best in Class for a Public Course

The greens were amazing, just fast enough and every putt went exactly where you aimed.

The tee boxes and fairways were perfect.

I wouldn’t change a thing.

One thing I would like to see change in golf is the course starters should direct people to the proper tees based on their skill level. I had a group in front of me playing the blues and they should have been playing the reds. They barely made the fairway on most of the par 4’s & 5’s.

Course was great but first nine took over 2.5 hours

We were behind a foursome walking. The young gentlemen were fine but the older couple walking slowed the pace of play down to a crawl. We never did see a marshal on the course, otherwise, we would had informed him of how slow the pace was for that nine.

Thank God they left after nine.

Always good

Some fairways were punched but that's to be expected. Greens were lightning fast and smooth. Gps electric carts and a nice breeze for a 85 degree day. Course is top notch! One of the best in the area!
