Woodland at River Club of Mequon

The River Club of Mequon's Woodland course occupies land in Mequon, a suburban community north of Milwaukee along Wisconsin's Lake Michigan shoreline. David Gill and Bob Lohmann designed the course, which takes its name from the wooded character that defines much of the property. The routing moves through stands of mature hardwoods and evergreens typical of southeastern Wisconsin, with the natural topography providing moderate elevation changes throughout the round.

The course reflects the regional design approach common to Wisconsin golf, where architects work within existing tree corridors and preserve native vegetation rather than impose dramatic reshaping. Holes play through and around the woodland areas, requiring accuracy off the tee and thoughtful course management. The property's natural drainage patterns and terrain features inform the strategic elements, with doglegs and elevation shifts creating variety in shot requirements.

River Club of Mequon operates as a private facility serving the northern Milwaukee suburbs. The club offers multiple amenities beyond the Woodland course, typical of full-service country clubs in the region. The course provides a tree-lined, parkland experience characteristic of Wisconsin golf, where seasonal changes bring distinct playing conditions from spring through fall. The design emphasizes playability for a range of skill levels while maintaining enough challenge for competitive club events and member play.
