Slow play

First time I played the course. The course was in very good shape with all the rain we have had. The pace of play was very slow over 5 hours for the 18. I would like like to play again,

Wild rock

Love the course, just happened to have a heavy rain prior to playing resulting in cart path only. Still enjoyable.

Great views

Outstanding experience overall. Considering it is in the midst of the Dells's tourism center, it is entirely in a beautiful state park. Many deer sightings, great views and elevation changes. Great practice area. Challenging but fair. Give yourself enough time to get to the starter as the first tee is like 500 yards through the woods! Great deal on Golfnow.

Why Haven't You Played Wild Rock?

If you are reading this review it is likely that you are trying to make a decision on where to play. It is also probable that you have not played Wild Rock and want to see what others think before making your decision. The question that I would ask is "why haven't you played Wild Rock?" The layout of the course is one killer hole after another. Awesome vistas of the Dells area are available on many of the elevated tees and greens. The conditions are as pure as you will find at any price, including the $300+ courses in WI. The service from the golf staff is on par with any of the top resort facilities in the country. They really know how to make all golfers feel welcome and ready to play.

Wild Rock is a must play and well worth the drive from any distance. I can't wait to get back up there and play it again. Wild Rock is the type of course that you could play every day and never have the same shot twice.

Outstanding

This is a great course ...reminds me a lot of The Glen ...very hilly terrain, lots of undulation everywhere, great condition, super long and hard from the back tees.

I played the blues and it was like 6,700 yards I think. Pretty fair though. You have to hit driver on most holes but the fairways are pretty wide.

Overall great course at a reasonable price.

Great Day!

This is a course where you need to play from the proper tees. We had quite a bit of wind and when you are hitting into it with long carries watch out. Really enjoyed it though! Great shape and great staff.

The Rock

Love the course! We always see deer and turkeys. We saw a mother deer and 2 small fawns this time. The course was in great shape. Almost had a hole in one on hole 15. This course would cost $200.00 if it was close to Chicago.....great value for the cost.

very special course

Wild Rock is a wonderful golf course, beautiful and challenging. It's crucial to play the right tee boxes. Even from whites, there are several forced carries that may be difficult. Greens are fair, and fun, with undulations that sometimes run counter to prevailing topography. Views from the highest elevations allow you to see far into the Wisconsin heartland. But two caveats: A can of beer will cost you $6, and if you accept the par 3 challenge (bet x amount and if on the green double that in pro shop credit) you will not be able to buy balls or markers...shirts, caps etc only. They don't tell you that on the course.

Stunning - a true jewel hidden in the Dells

Follow the signs once you get close - the GPS won't get you all the way to the clubhouse. Once there, you will pleased. Had lunch - shrimp tacos just ok and the wings were good!!! Driving range comes with the green fees. Didn't use the practice green but looked big enough for quite a few people. There are a number of different tee boxes - I am a 9 handicap and the whites were challenging. We were lucky enough to have Sunday pin placements. The course was in A+ shape. Every hole was unique. Cart girl was regular and cordial. This is a must if golfing in the Dells.

First Time - Great Day

I've played the Woods - Exec 9, a number of times. This was my first opportunity to play the 18 hole course and I was very impressed. We hit a perfect, preseason day with very few golfers on the course. The course was in great shape and the fairways had interesting challenges and configurations, without the pitfalls of obstacles that were hidden from you. The carts included extremely nice GPS screens that helped planning shots. It was a great day on the links!

Wide expanse

When I get to play this course at this time of year, I feel like I own this place! The summer tourists have gone and they start catering to the locals by throwing us a bone on GolfNow, to which I gladly take a bite of! This course has wide fairways, but can be bit long on a few holes (#10 is a killer!). They do a great job of cleaning the leaves and the greens are very good for the time of year. Make sure when you get on the greens to turn back to admire the view. Walking is not an option here. No bev cart at this time, but they forewarn you prior to leaving the clubhouse. Best course in the Dells area!

Wild Rock.....rocks!

This golf course is about as challenging as any course i've played. the first time we played it the weather was overcast and raining and i couldn't wait to come back when the conditions were more favorable. the layout is beautiful, the greens are great, tough but fair. you WILL lose some golf balls unless you are a seasoned player. Wildlife everywhere, we saw turkeys, deer, squirrels, etc. the views are breathtaking, many of the holes from the tee box are intimidating, especially #2 when you have to hit across a 165yd canyon to get it to the fairway. i love this course.
