Wild Rock-Dells

Very nice layout, fairways are wide but approach shots are difficult. Greens true and verry good condition.

Play appropriate tees so your approach shots are around 150 and you will really enjoy this track.

Stafg was super friendly eccept starter who should look for another job.

A Must Play

I've played a lot of golf courses in my days for l've been playing for 60 years but when I played this Masterpiece it put it the top 5 of all the golf courses that I've played in the State of Wisconsin and believe that is saying a lot. So please take my advice golfers and play the round of your life, you won't regret it.

We liked the course a lot

We enjoyed our round at Wild Rock very much. We both felt the fairways were very forgiving. We thought that was probably a good thing, because the greens were very challenging to read and sometimes difficult if you were on the wrong side of the pin.

Top course for the money

Wild Rock is a first class golf track at a fraction of the cost of Whistling Staights or Erin Hills.

The staff was very accommodating and easily arranged an earlier tee time than the one we booked and helped us play through three flower groups.

The holes were often very picturesque and sometimes dramatic. There were plenty of hazards- water, sand, fescue and forest but the fairways were generous and Line of sight was almost always available.

The layout is large and a power cart is a virtual necessity and the state of the art GPS on the cart was very helpful.

The hot deal we got on this excellent course was like stealing.

The course is well away from the blitz and clutter of Wisconsin Dells- indeed, an oasis of calm and naturalness.

Fun course

Our foursome really enjoyed this course, it feels like you are far away from civilization, but has the nice amenities. There are great views and the course in challenging, yet fair. The food and drinks are expensive, but it is a tourist area, so that is no surprise. I would definitely golf this course again if I can find the same deals.

Great golf - Beautiful course

This course is gorgeous and provides a nice challenge. If you feel like you need more of a challenge back up a set of tees, they have 5 sets!

7 hour round

Staff was good. No problems there. Course was wet but can't control the weather. The big problem I had was pace of place. We were waiting 15 minutes on every hole and we let the rangers know about it after hole 3. We didn't see any change after we were told the clubhouse was informed. After a 7 hour round we were extremely annoyed. No I'm not a slow golfer, no one in our group was slow, just bad bad bad course management!

Frustration

Very very tough course

Not recommended unless your handicap is less than 5

Pin placements and greens are ridiculous

Not a good resort course

Beautiful Day

Great course and thanks to Golf Now the price was affordable.. Get there early and use the practice areas as they are included. Use the bar after the round as it is beautifully located looking over the course. Be careful on the back 9 as there are two quarry holes that consume golf balls. The first quarry caught me off guard and ruined what I thought was a good shot.

One of the stars in Wisconsin

Wild Rock gets overshadowed by Wisconsin's major venues - Whistling Straits and now Erin Hills - but this course is every bit in their league.

It's a hoot to play, designed by the same duo - Dr. Michael Hurdzan and Dana Fry - at the same time as Erin Hills. They gave resort golfers wide fairways and receptive greens, not the gut-busting holes and walk of Erin Hills. The terrain is also more dramatic with sweeping vistas that stretch for miles at key elevated tees or greens.

Every so often, they sprinkled in a bunker in the middle of the fairway or a tiny bunker front and center of the green to force you into hitting a quality golf shot.

My matched turned on hole no. 14, the final par 5 that's all risk-reward. My partner and I laid up to make par, while our opponents went for it in two and both made big numbers. That's the sign of a great design, one with swing holes coming home. It is one of the quarry holes, a stretch from 13-15 that's really strong. I can't recommend this course enough.
