Most visitors to Blue Mound Golf & Country Club arrive through Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport, a straightforward twenty-minute drive to the west into Wauwatosa's leafy residential fabric. The route follows the interstate briefly before peeling off into tree-lined boulevards where the city's suburban grace takes hold - wide lawns, mature oaks, and the quiet hum of an established neighborhood. Blue Mound itself sits tucked into this serene enclave, its entrance discreet and understated, a portal into one of Wisconsin's most storied private clubs where the game has been played with quiet reverence since the early twentieth century.

Blue Mound is a Seth Raynor design so if you geek out over template greens you will love it here. I am not one of those people. This is one of the highest regarded private clubs in WI and it does not disappoint. The conditions are top notch. The opening holes play along a mall parking lot and busy road so kind of loud. The rest of the course is more quiet. The hole layouts are pretty straight forward since the greens are the feature of the course. The course is very gettable and I have had some very good rounds there. The area behind the clubhouse that links 9 green and 10 tee with grass mowed to fairway height is so cool. Always a treat to play at Blue Mound since it is unique in WI
I haven’t played here since caddying back in the early’90’s. It was always such a great course and I’m sure it still is even though I doubt I’ll ever get a chance to play it again.
Blue Mound is such a classic golden age course. Seth Raynor shines and some of his best templates are on display. Despite being short in comparison to other courses in Milwaukee, a round at Blue Mound keeps me smiling all day.
