Devil's Head Resort

I never leave reviews and I hate to do this, but I feel I should warn other golfers. The staff here were great so that is something. However, the course itself is rough. Layout is great, views are great and could be a great course. But the conditions are some of the worst I have ever seen. Some greens were very dried out/ dead/ hard as rock/ brown and very very fast. Some greens had big patches of dirt and mud. A few of the greens were very nice and lush but not mowed any time recently and very very slow. The variance in putting/ approach conditions made it very frustrating. Cart paths require careful attention to any open beverages. Multiple “fairways” where a well hit tee shot was hard to find because the grass was so long, similar to the rough on other courses (nothing like catching a flier out of the fairway). Other fairways were quite sparse and had many bare dirt patches. Some bunkers are nice, some quite literally have 100s of golf balls sized rocks with a few fist sized rocks in them. Should be a $30 course.

Overall this place was in pretty rough shape and the other reviews regarding the course needing a ton of uplift and maintenance are pretty accurate. No clubhouse here, just a little snack shack and both of the attached bathrooms were out of order so I had to walk up to the hotel which was completely empty. I literally didn’t see a single person in the hotel before or after the round, it was a little creepy. They had a bev cart but it was not being used, and the course does not lead back to the snack shack at the turn.

A lot of the other reviews talk about the greens being poor but honestly the greens were the best part of the course. The tee boxes and fairways were awful. This place definitely has a lot of potential and natural beauty but the seeming lack of care outweighs the pros for me and I probably wouldn’t return.

This is a very unique course, Very pretty, lots of elevations and blind holes. It gets some grief from other reviewers because of the condition of the some of the greens at times, but unless you're a golf snob, just enjoy the layout.

Fabulous day of Golf. Staff was the best. Look forward to next year.

Devils head resort is in a beautiful area. The golf course is recently priced but is a bit tired. The greens staff are doing the best they can with a limited budget. A good value and a beautiful.ride in the country to get there.

I was told that if I reserved my teel time via our sight at Devil's Head on 9/20/23 at 11:28 a.m. that I would be assessed a reservation fee of $6 and then when I get to the course, they would only charge me $78 for a total of $84 for two players yesterday. When I got to the course, they charged me $82.29 cents. When I told them I was supposed to only pay $78 they told me their charge was $82.29 as Golf Pass needed to get their cut -- so I ended up paying at total of $88.29 cent instead of $84. Which was disappointing. You need to make sure what you quote is what one gets charged. Otherwise, I should have just called the course and booked my tee time by myself.

Spots on a number of holes were irrigation system was leaking. So a few balls we lost in middle of fairways They also need better yardage markers on fairways. Layout is beautiful with many challenging holes 😎.

Everything was great there was a few greens that need work but other than that a great course

Good Rend were in very good condition but cart paths weren’t. More attention to detail is needed by the groundskeeper as many sprinklers were malfunctioning and mowers were cutting ruts in fairways. Located in Baraboo bluffs with many animals.

I've always loved getting out to Devil's Head. The course is is in a beautiful location and the views from some of the holes are stunning. That said, the upkeep is a little underwhelming. Most hours are fine, but some of the fairways and greens were pretty rough. This could easily be a destination course. It needs some TLC though.

Beautiful views, great layout, but could use a little TLC.

Course was in decent shape. This could be a premiere golf destination if they would hire a good grounds keeper. There were a lot of things that could use some attention.

the location of the course is wonderful and there are some great views of the valley. The course was in terrible condition. Tee boxes were dead and hard, sand traps were like concrete, and several greens were dead. The cart paths were all ripped up and there was debris all over the course. That may have been due to a recent storm, but it was a mess.

Even though there were 2 beverage carts at the club house, none came around the course while we were there. Thankfully, it was a cooler afternoon, so the lack of service was not as noticeable.

While the layout was nice, it felt more like a city course. For $70 I'll pick a different course. This could be a very good course, but too pricey for what it is.

The pizza at the bar after the game was very good, and they get points for serving Edmund Fitzgerald Porter, on tap.

This nicely designed course through the woods of Wisconsin is suffering financially. Tee boxes and fairways need a lot more water; the greens while still lush were soft and slow. Carts were quick, and there are lots of them. Played in 3.25 hours so all this works for me!

Very fun but challenging course if you don’t hit it straight! Beautiful scenery and nature all around.

My brother and I unknowingly booked a tee time behind a giant outing and the guys working the check in made comments while they thought we were out of earshot saying things as if other tee times shouldn’t have been available for a few hours to break things up and made it seem like we shouldn’t be there. We played 6 holes in 2.25 hours. The ranger came out and acted as if we were the one’s holding up pace of play. How could a twosome be the one’s holding up pace of play for the foursomes behind us? Once he talked to the foursomes in front of us, nothing changed. Multiple groups waiting at tee boxes, the whole day was ridiculous. We played for 4.5 hours and left after 13 holes. Will not come back.

Devil's Head has 2 good courses, Prairie and Glacier. Well worth going to, especially with Golf Now discount.
