Brute at Grand Geneva Resort & Spa
Rating Snapshot
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.

Very EXPENSIVE
way TOO MUCH MONEY!! cOURSE IS BEAUTIFUL. Very Bad Pace ! 5 hours on a wed> Not enough carts. They came to 1st hole and took 1. made a pair aftertee shot. I hac to pay $32 extra for my own cart. I'm disabled! I stopped playing after 12 holes, What if I had a pairing!! TERRIBLE
Great value
The price I paid @ Golfnow.com was a bargain at any course, but @ "The Brute" it was like Christmas in summer. It's a very classy place with two great courses. Can't wait to return.
Course
Course is in excellent shape ! Greens are some of the best in the Midwest. Will forward to our next visit !
Top 5
Elevated tees, awesome layout, incredible condition.
Sand traps
Sand traps are a challenge for recreational golfers. When sand traps are crusty and filled with stones it’s impossible. Traps are far below what you would expect from this quality of coarse. Very disappointing.
Jeff
Course was fabulous. Conditions were fantastic. Greens are huge but always be under hole to score. The only problem was that is was Cary path only. There was no standing water anywhere on the course. Pace of play was brutally slow. Played only 12 holes in about 3.25 hours.
Great course
Wow. Great course. No carts in fairway made it difficult, but loved the course. Great staff. Highly recommend,
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..
