Rivermoor Country Club
About this course
Rivermoor Country Club sits in Waterford, a small community in southeastern Wisconsin's lake country, roughly midway between Milwaukee and the Illinois border. The course was designed by Billy Sixty, a regional architect whose work appears primarily across Wisconsin and neighboring Midwestern states during the latter decades of the twentieth century. Sixty's designs typically emphasize playability for a range of skill levels while working within the natural contours and vegetation of their sites. The Waterford area features gently rolling terrain shaped by glacial activity, with numerous small lakes and wetlands characteristic of this part of Wisconsin. Courses in this region often incorporate these water features and mature hardwood stands into their routing. Rivermoor's setting likely reflects this landscape, with holes moving through tree-lined corridors and around water hazards that provide both strategic interest and visual definition to the layout. As a country club in a smaller Wisconsin community, Rivermoor serves as a social and recreational center for its membership, hosting regular club competitions and social events typical of regional private clubs. The course provides a home venue for members seeking a traditional country club experience within the lake country setting that defines this corner of the state.

Getting there
Rivermoor Country Club sits in the rolling countryside west of Milwaukee, most easily reached via Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport (MKE), roughly forty minutes south by car, or Chicago's O'Hare (ORD) and Midway (MDW) airports, each within ninety minutes of the club. The drive from Milwaukee traces through the suburban transition zone before opening into the quieter, more pastoral landscape of Waukesha County, where tree-lined roads and gentle elevation changes signal entry into Wisconsin's established golf country. For those arriving by private aircraft, nearby Timmerman Airport (MKE's general aviation counterpart) offers a more discreet alternative, positioning you just minutes from Rivermoor's gates. The final miles unfold through the distinctive Wisconsin terrain - a patchwork of manicured fairways, wetlands, and mature hardwoods - delivering you to a club that has anchored this corner of the state for generations.
