The Golf Courses of Lawsonia

Absolutely the best value in the state. I've been playing this course for 30 years and it has never been in better shape. You can tell just after entering the front gate this is going to be a special day. The vision of the ownership has renewed this gem into the classic that we remember. You won't be disappointed.

Beautiful course, well designed, requires distance and direction control. Only negative is that the traps were not raked.

As one who has played this course many times this is the worst condition I have ever seen it in. Sand Traps? More like parking lots as they were rock hard and unplayable. The Water Hazards were more like pools of Green Smelly Slime. The biggest complaint I heard from others we encountered during the day was a lack of beverage carts on the course. With temps in the upper 80s one would think there would be more than one beverage cart out for two courses. We did not see one until we hit our 16th tee.

This course use to be the jewel of the area, but no longer shines as bright!

Found a great deal on GolfNow to save this from being a total disaster. While the track was promising, the lack of care shown to this course is amazing compared to the links course. The bunkers were basically gravel pits and for the sake of my clubs decided to just drop out of them. Really disappointing considering how well kept the links course is. Greens were also in very bad shape. I love the links course but will most likely never play the Woodlands again after how poor of condition it was in during peak season, especially compared to the links.

Beautiful fairways. Very challenging par 3 . Fast greens . Regular rates are high. Very nice clubhouse.

Front nine of the Links is wonderful and the greens are great throughout. But the back nine has a few goofy holes and has three par 3 holes in the first six holes rotating with par 5 holes. I'm not saying they are easy, but difficult to get anything going especially after that 565 yard par 5.

Very nearly as good as Erin Hills at 1/8th the price. Great course.

Excellent well-cared for course.

I've golfed Lawsonia quite a few times in the past both the links and woods and have always considered it one of the best in the state. After today I would not say the same. The course was pretty beat up and the rough was longer and thicker than usual. The sand traps are the worst in the state. There were times when I or my playing partners hit out of the sand and hit rock or clay. Put some sand in these traps! I understand with the rain the night before some would be washed out but I could tell just by driving by that they needed sand. Also I was disappointed at how many greens featured numerous ball marks hat were not fixed. There is no way that I would ever pay top dollar ($90) to play here. This used to be my favorite course to golf

This is one of the must plays for the avid golfer. The layout is incredible, the views are panoramic and the golf is a true test to everyone's game. This course is the closest thing to being in Ireland; large greens, rolling hills and lots of fescue. It is easily in my top five courses that I have ever played!

Would have been better but they were airatring some of the greens, probably should have reduced fees during process.

This is one gem of a course. Play either the links or the woodlands. Both worth the drive.

I love playing the Woodlands at Lawsonia. It is cut through the hardwood woods with glimpses of Green Lake. The holes have variety and character but above all else it is beautiful, quiet and peaceful. More rounds than not you will see wildlife and it is a pleasure to play. For some reason the rough was extremely long and the course very dry. Clubhouse looked like it was just opened for the first day of the year. Boxes and clutter and understaffed. Quite unusual.

One of the nicest courses I have played. Not for people who can't keep the ball in the fairway. I would recommend a few extra balls for anyone who doesn't play more then once a week.

I enjoyed playing here even though my score was way too high. A lot of hard bunkers to get out with difficult greens.

The Woodlands course is in great shape for this early in the season. Player beware! The rough is longish and thick. The greens are large and currently playing slow but will speed up as the season allows closer cuts. The layout requires some tactical play with several bomber holes. Bring your bunker skills as many greens are protected by sand. Enjoy! The service personnel "went the extra mile" to provide assistance. Outstanding young people work at this golf course. The pub/restaurant is well designed to promote story telling after and before your round. They have great food and a well stocked bar. Nice experience.

12 of us played after playing the Woodlands in the morning. Great rate for an all-day pass. I really enjoyed the challenge. Plenty of beverage carts, operated by friendly young ladies from the area. Food in clubhouse was great and bartender took good care of us. This is a course for golfers, not really for high handicap player. Bring extra balls.

Will be back with a larger group in early August 2016.

Can't wait!

To be playing in November in Wisconsin is rare. Lawsonia was in great shape for this time of year. Friendly staff, great hot deal rate and fast play. Bar/Restaurant were closed (to be expected) great day off to play!

This is the best course I've played in a long time. Great scenery, excellent condition, very challenging! Can't wait to play again!

Weather was great and course overall was great, except for the aerated and sanded greens. Putt speeds were very inconsistent. The one black mark was an EXTREME bottleneck / slowdown from a group 2 ahead of us. We were stacked 4 groups deep waiting on the 14th tee box waiting for the slow play ahead of us. Where was the marshal ???
