TRAPPERS TURN COUNTRY CLUB
🇺🇸 Wisconsin Dells, WI, USA
Designed by Andy North, Roger Packard


Arbor 9 at Trappers Turn Country Club in Wisconsin Dells is part of a 27-hole facility designed by Andy North and Roger Packard. North, a two-time U.S. Open champion who turned to course design after his playing career, partnered with the experienced Packard on this central Wisconsin project. The course opened in the mid-1990s as part of the resort and residential development that characterizes much of the Wisconsin Dells area, a region better known for its tourism attractions than its golf history.
The Arbor nine plays through wooded terrain typical of the glacially-formed Wisconsin landscape, with elevation changes and natural corridors carved through stands of hardwoods and pines. Like many courses in the region, the routing takes advantage of the rolling topography while incorporating water features and strategic bunkering. The design reflects Packard's extensive portfolio of resort-style courses, emphasizing playability for a range of skill levels while maintaining enough challenge to engage accomplished players.
Trappers Turn operates primarily as a semi-private facility serving both members and resort guests. The 27-hole configuration allows for varied playing experiences, with the Arbor nine combining with the other nines—Arbor and Lake—to create different 18-hole rotations. The course serves the recreational golf market in Wisconsin Dells, where the emphasis is on vacation play rather than competitive golf. The setting provides a wooded, parkland experience distinct from the links-style courses found elsewhere in Wisconsin.
