Lake 9 Course
Trappers Turn Country Club



About this course
Lake 9 at Trappers Turn Country Club represents one half of an 18-hole facility designed by Andy North and Roger Packard in Wisconsin Dells. North, a two-time U.S. Open champion who transitioned to course design, partnered with the experienced Packard on this project in the 1990s. The course sits in the rolling, wooded terrain characteristic of central Wisconsin, where the landscape transitions between the state's northern forests and southern farmland. The Lake nine takes its name from the water features that define several holes in the routing. The design works with the natural topography, incorporating elevation changes and wooded corridors that frame playing areas. North and Packard's collaboration here reflects a player-friendly approach that balances challenge with accessibility, typical of resort-area courses serving both members and visitors to the Wisconsin Dells tourism region. Trappers Turn operates as a semi-private facility, accommodating both club members and public play. The course serves golfers visiting Wisconsin Dells, a destination known primarily for its water parks and family attractions along the Wisconsin River. When paired with the property's other nine holes, Lake 9 completes a full round that showcases the design team's work across varied terrain. The facility includes practice areas and clubhouse amenities standard for courses of this type in the upper Midwest.

Getting there
Trappers Turn Country Club is reached via Dane County Regional Airport in Madison, roughly fifty miles to the southeast, or for those flying private, Baraboo-Wisconsin Dells Airport sits just minutes from the property. The drive north from Madison traces the gentle roll of south-central Wisconsin farmland before yielding to the wooded bluffs and glacial terrain that define the Dells region. As Highway 12 carries you into Wisconsin Dells, the roadside shifts from open fields to dense stands of oak and pine, signaling your arrival at a club tucked discreetly into the forested ridges above the Wisconsin River valley.
