    The fairways remain lush atop miles of ancient dunes, while the natural fescue and native grasses provide an authentic test for golfers of all levels. The service is world-class—welcoming from the moment you arrive. Caddies are knowledgeable and personable…

    What a place! The vastness and overall vibes at this place are so good. Also $1 hotdogs and $1 brats on the course helps just a bit. Hole 13 is one of my favorite par 3’s I’ve ever played followed up by #14 which is a really fun massively downhill drive able par 4.

    Awesome, fun, beautiful. Completely different feel than the rest of the courses on property. Much more heathland style. Really interesting mix of holes as a par 68, but certainly isn’t a “short course”. Wide corridors, but angles to pins matters a ton. Greens are classic Doak.

    17 par 3s that can played with just your putter if you wanted. While some holes are templates of real holes such as the road hole others are truly unique. The course is just as well manicured as the main courses on property and the nearby food truck is unbelievable.

    Played 2025 Wisconsin State Am here. Such a strategic golf course with multiple ways to attack each hole. Green complexes may be the craziest I have ever seen and are even extreme for CB Macdonald standards. An absolute joy to play and not one day plays the same.

How we rank

This ranking uses each golfer’s scenery rating, on a 0.5–5 scale. Scenery is the scenery score golfers give when they log a round. Every golfer counts once per course: repeat rounds are averaged first, then the course score is the average across golfers. A course needs scenery ratings from at least 5 different golfers. Ties go to the course with more golfers, then the higher Course Vaults score. Only open courses with a published Course Vaults score (at least 5 explicit ratings) are eligible, and a page is published only when at least 5 courses qualify. City pages include courses within about 25 miles of Nekoosa, so nearby suburbs can appear. Rankings refresh about hourly.
