Greens were the worst part before but now since I was there in the early part of the year greens looks 10/10 times better minus the last part 5 other then that back to looking like wild rock greens aren’t as fast as they use to be but in time I’m sure they will be

The guy in the pro shop must have gotten up earlier than he is used to because he was not very friendly. The course was great until you got to the greens, I have played on municipal courses with better greens. They know how bad it is but give no discount or tell you ahead of time. I would rather go to Trappers Turn than give this course any more $$$.

Beautiful Course but several damaged greens

I have played here every year at least twice for years. Beautiful layout and great views. There were 4-6 greens in bad shape. 9th 17th and others with a grass disease. They should tell players the situation. When 25% of the putting greens are bad, many players will want a discount or play elsewhere. Never experienced this at Wildrock in 10yrs.

Undisclosed Aeration.

Several greens were unputtable.Two going in the hole birdies kept me from a two over 74 score. Great course except for the god awfull greens. Have to think twice before playing it again. That was messed up!

Pretty and challenging

I like the length of the holes. Some open fairways and some water holes. Close to everything but still woody. Great coarse for the price. The fairways were in great shape. The greens were nice. Just the right amount of sand traps. The carts are in great shape. I will play this course again.

Great course, unfortunate greens

I love the layout of Wild Rock but this year their greens were in bad shape. They are working to get them back but I’m not sure what happened to them. Staff is very friendly.

Great course but

The course is great amazing views well laid out, but the greens are horrible almost unplayable in some of The sections. I hope they get it figured out. I like going back there.

HORRIBLE DO NOT GO. GREENS ARE DEAD 4:40 Round

This course was a disappointment. Right off the bat the the starter tells us the pace of play if 4 hours and 40 minutes for their typical round. There is no rangers on the course making sure the pace of play is on time so everyone is stacked and we waited 10 mins+ on every tee box. The greens might have been the worst greens my group and I had ever played on. Half of greens under repair and other half have dead spots all over them. Greens were extremely slow and basically like putting on a fairway as the ball does not roll it bounces. Horrible experience for the $120 they are charging for the round and not to mention nobody from the starter to the pro shop mentioned the greens were “recovering”. Only took pictures on the last 7 holes but all of the greens were this way. Will not be coming back. Would not even be a course I would spend $60 at for the round.

Greens are the worst of any course in the dells and surrounding area. Dead spots some spots only sand. Cart path only is rediculous.

Beware Severe Green Stress (summer 2025)

This is one of the premiere layouts in the state of wisconsin. A great, challenging course set in some of the best terrain in the state. However, the greens are a mess right now. The wet spring and early summer was followed by a heat wave that cooked the roots of many of the low lying green complexes. Most of the greens, understandably, were left shaggy to save them. Others were severely stressed and one was largely unplayable. Check with the pro shop to get an update on the current course conditions before you play. Hope the greens are back in good form by the fall.

Worst Greens Ever!

Got out to this course because a lot of people were saying it was a gem. It definitely was perfect tee boxes and fairways and the course layout and scenery was awesome. But the round was ruined by the greens. Genuinely the worst greenest i’ve ever played in my entire life, half of the where ground under repair. All of them were stupid slow beat to crap. Looks like if you were to cut your grass in the lowest setting, then stomp and scuff the crap out of it with your golf shoes. Noyes Park has better greens!!!

Greens weren't green

Overall, the course was in good condition. The greens, however, were in poor shape. They were ridiculously slow, discolored and rough. For the price, the greens need to be better.
