The Squires Country Club sits in Port Washington, a small city on the western shore of Lake Michigan about thirty miles north of Milwaukee. The course was designed by Clarence St. Peter, a regional architect active primarily in the mid-twentieth century who worked on several layouts across Wisconsin and neighboring states. St. Peter's designs typically reflect the practical, playable approach common to Midwestern golf architecture of that era, emphasizing strategic variety within the natural terrain rather than dramatic earthmoving. The property occupies rolling terrain characteristic of southeastern Wisconsin's glacial landscape, with mature tree-lined fairways and modest elevation changes that add visual interest and strategic dimension to the routing. The proximity to Lake Michigan influences the local climate and can introduce wind as a factor in play, though the course itself is set inland from the immediate shoreline. The layout presents a traditional parkland character with tree-defined corridors and greens that reward accurate approach play. The Squires serves as a community-focused private club, providing a home course for local members and hosting regional amateur competitions typical of clubs in smaller Wisconsin cities. The club maintains the traditions of Midwestern country club golf, where the course functions as both a competitive test for serious players and an accessible, walkable layout for regular member play. The setting offers views across the surrounding countryside, with the broader Lake Michigan region providing a scenic backdrop to the golfing experience.
