Brute at Grand Geneva Resort & Spa

About
Grand Geneva Resort & Spa was ranked in the top 10 northern U.S. golf resorts by Conde Nast Traveler. The resort boasts two championship courses, the Brute and the Highlands. The formidable Brute Course stretches to over 7,000 yards. It is considered one of the toughest golf courses in the Midwest. The layout wanders across rolling terrain, incorporating a variety of elevation changes that range from subtle to dramatic. There are 68 bunkers strategically placed along the massive, undulating greens. The course is aptly named since it will relentlessly test your skills. It is more challenging than the Highlands, which is a links course designed by Jack Nicklaus and Pete Dye. In addition to the two courses, Grand Geneva Resort & Spa also has a practice facility complete with a driving range and putting and chipping greens.

Great course!
I was visiting from out of town and this course lived up to the hype. Greens were great and course was in overall excellent shape. Hope to play it again!
Great challenge with nice views!
The Brute at Grand Geneva is both challenging and scenic. The greens rolled very consistent and the fairways/tee-boxes were in great shape as well. I would highly recommend this course.
Holiday Golf w kids
Tge only thing that was noticedbwas price of food and Beverage which was over priced but of great quality. Its not affordable for one to not only golf but then have to be overcharged for goods that in my opinion were way off? I mean $14 for a Brat & Chips is riduculous even uf your clientle is mostly middle upper class. $8.50 for one regular beer is also a tad high. Inflation is not an excuse and I work in food & Beverage and know what things are costing. Thats my real only issue I had otherwise loved the Course F&B Staff, Rangers and Ground Crew and Bag Personel and Cart people were awesome
Always a great experience.
You may not always score well but it is always a great expereince.experience.. Tough course with large greens undulating greens..
Course layout was great. greens were super-fast which is fine. The sand traps were absolutely horrible and filled with pebbles, stone and ROCKS. They are throughout the depth of the bunker sand, submerged as well as visible on the surface. Put 3 serious dings in the face of my sand wedge by submerge rocks. I would drop out of the bunkers if I ever play the course again.
excellent course
had more than a half inch of rain but the course was
super condition. fast green, no sitting water on the
fairways, and they let us drive cart on the fairway!!!!!
Great course
Great course. Excellent condition. The staff are great
