Bridges/Lakeview Course
Waushara Country Club

About this course
Waushara Country Club sits in Wautoma, a small community in central Wisconsin's lake country, where the landscape transitions from glacial moraines to sandy plains dotted with kettle lakes and pine forests. The club operates two nine-hole layouts—Bridges and Lakeview—designed by Arthur Johnson, a regional architect active in Wisconsin during the mid-twentieth century. Johnson's work typically emphasized playability for small-town clubs while incorporating the natural contours and vegetation of the Wisconsin countryside. The Bridges and Lakeview nines reflect the area's modest topography, with gentle elevation changes and routing that works around water features and wooded corridors characteristic of this part of the state. The sandy soils common to central Wisconsin provide good drainage and support the kind of firm conditions that favor ground game and strategic positioning over forced carries. Tree-lined fairways and small, straightforward greens define the playing experience, offering members and visitors a traditional parkland test suited to the scale and resources of a rural Wisconsin community club. Waushara Country Club serves as a recreational and social hub for the Wautoma area, maintaining the traditions of small-town golf clubs throughout the upper Midwest. The facility provides an accessible, unpretentious setting for local golfers, with the two nines offering variety for regular play and club competitions. The course reflects both the regional landscape and the practical design sensibilities of its era.
