Are all of them private
Other great affordable public courses in Wisconsin to try include; Washington County Golf Course (designed by Arthur Hills), The Bog (designed by Arnold Palmer), The Bull at Pinehurst Farms (designed by Jack Nicklaus), Naga-Waukee War Memorial Golf Course (designed by Lawrence Packard), Peninsula State Park Golf Course (great for fall golf!), and University Ridge (designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr.). On the pricier side are the courses around Lake Geneva and the Blackwolf Run courses. Went to college near Lawsonia, played there a lot, did a great job on the renovation.
Sorry, Wisconsin is only corn and cows please don't come
Green Bay here, want to shout out Thornberry Creek which hosted an LPGA tournament, never played the Scottish 18 but they have a separate 9 hole course which is still fun and gorgeous! South of GB up on Scray Hill is Hilly Haven, the back 9 is unbelievably beautiful. Although I've never been to this one, every time I see it from the highway or from Satellite it looks like golf heaven, Mid Vallee, off of I-41 in between the fox cities and Green Bay has 27 holes that you can interchange with when playing a round of 18. Also can't forget Crystal Springs in Outagamie County nearby the town of Seymour.
Door County should also be on people's lists for places to Golf whether in the summer or fall.
I do NOT recommend Village Green in Howard, a 9 hole course owned by the village of Howard, I've lost golf balls on the FAIRWAY! Idk how that's possible! I also don't recommend Brown County Golf Course, not because of low quality like Village Green, far from it, it's in the top 10% in quality courses, the problem is that it's HARD! It may not look it from a satellite POV, but it's in the middle of a forest, none of the fairways are wide and the greens are TINY and easy to miss!
