Amazing view. Course will kick your butt if you aren't accurate off the tee. Half the course runs along Lake Michigan. Do not use a pull cart on this course as the elevation changes and walking paths are too narrow.

Jon Christophersen

Nothing the people here could control, but the bugs were AWFUL. No joke, it was like a plague on the back 9. Really made me just want to hit and walk as fast as I can so it got old on the last few holes. Otherwise, the experience was great. People were accommodating and nice. Id love to play again when the back 9 isnt the plague. Played the Straits course.

Best golf experience of my life. Whistling Straights needs to be at the top of your golf bucket list. Every hole offers breathtaking views of Lake Michigan. Extremely challenging, but if you play the right tees, anyone can enjoy themselves.

Eddie Bullinger

I am shocked to see Whistling Straits only has 4.9. This place is heaven. It's beautiful and challenging. The staff is friendly and keep you on pace. The caddies are awesome. The food is delicious. The practice facility is in better condition than most courses. I've been lucky enough to play the Straits and the Irish a few times each, and I look forward to my next visit.

Jason Petri

Beautiful course. Very challenging especially on a windy day. Service was top notch. Shout out to Jason today working next to the bev cart. He happily went to my car to grab an item for me on hole #8. Tip:Don't bother using a push cart. There is not much of a path for them. If you are not using a caddie, just carry your bag. Trust me you will not regret it. Course is in great shape for early season. Bunkers could use a little work but I understand why they are not raked during this COVID-19 thing so I will not hold that against them at all.. Just a note for those that will play in the next week or two.... The bunkers might not be immaculate.

Gregg McAllister

Amazing. Hole 18 is best par 4 I've played....

Jerry Hora

Great course Had outstanding caddie. Well worth the $

Tyler Nielsen

This is what golf is all about. A challenging and picturesque location that truly transports you to another country. The hospitality is second to none and the peaceful mentality (yes, even when not scoring well) is an amazing feat. Now, if I could golf here a couple times a year Im sure it wouldnt be so difficult, but man its worth it.

Just had lunch out there with my friend Bill and the food was fantastic and so were Kathy and Tiffany, I would say the whole atmosphere out there was wonderful we sat next to the window and we overlooked whole number nine on the Straits course thank you again Whistling Straits for a wonderful lunch and they're great staff.

Matt K

What an incredible place!!! Attended a wedding there. It's beautiful. I can only imagine that the golfing would be wonderful. Maybe next time.

Michael Jaber

Amazing food and a great atmosphere!! Our waitress was super nice. I highly recommend the warm apple cider. It's amazing

One of the coolest course you will ever see visually. I have not played here yet so I cannot speak to that. But it is absolutely a sight to behold. You don't have to be a golfer or a fan of golfing to come here and simply see how beautiful this location is. Walk around the course (when allowed to do so) or have and amazing meal at the restaurant. All right along the shores of Lake Michigan.

Skeeter High

Definitely is a Scottish style club. With the rocky sides to Lake Michigan and rolling hills.

R Stine

What a great place to visit and course to play. Amazing views

Cary Manstein

I was lucky enough to play here. Make sure to enjoy every minute/shot/view. And bring an extra ball or two. Course is in amazing shape; pride in the course shows here. Five stars all around.

Scott Nicholson

An incredible course and very knowledgeable caddies. I gave it four stars because the bunkers were in terrible shape (hardpan, mud). For the exceptionally high green fee, they should be in a much better condition. As an aside, the service in the pub was painfully slow but I wont knock the golf course itself for that.

Elizabeth Huffman

Great food, service just ok. Obviously local teen staff, not experienced servers. As long as you're not expecting menu knowledge or wine pairing suggestions, it's fine. We had to steal silverware from another table since we weren't brought any. But again, the food was fantastic.

Andrew Sardina

4-1/2 stars. Soooo beautiful. The course is challenging but shouldn't discourage players with lesser skills. You have the option for caddies which I would recommend for the experience but add another $100 (caddy fee plus tip) on top of the high price to play a round there. I had a package deal to play Irish and Whistling Straits for the weekend so it helped save cost--well worth it and my only gripe is I can't play it more often. Everyone was very courteous and the caddies are knowledgeable.

Jeff McCurry

We played a late season round. We golfed the Irish. The course is nice very nice. The club house is nice.

Eric Meyer

The golf course and caddies were absolutely amazing. Stunning views all over the course. Can't wait to play it again.

Craig Sippola

8 handicap index playing well...shot 83 with double on 6 and 2 triples on the back (stuck in bunkers both times on back). Played from the white tees (6360 yds) which was about right for me. Listen to caddie advice as you can't see fairways in the distance on some holes. Good caddy can make or break round...Travis was great....3 birdies including 18!!!

Robert Garvelink

Outstanding Golf Course and the best par 3's I have ever played. The course is one of the toughest I have ever played but its a once in a life time experience. Check it out and worth the drive if you can make it happen

Tom Irwin

One of the best golf experiences of my life. Any serious golfer should try to play here once. Not only is the course amazing the whole experience is first class. Make sure you book times at Black Wolf Run as well.

Danielle Welcher

Irish pub upstairs is the place to be for great drinks, beautiful view of the Whistling Straits Course, and excellent pub food!!

Pete Rivers

Truly one of the best Wisconsin courses.

Jay Parsons

Fantastic,!!! Great food, great service, most enjoyable evening.

Steve Butler

I played the Irish course. Every one was very nice. And a special shout out to my caddy Blake. Thanks for all of your help.

John Madden

Beautiful. Can't believe I haven't been here before.

Brad Stephens

Bucket list for golfers. Great day all around. Lunch, golf, service, shuttles. Well done!

Matthew Sturgeon

Phenomenal course and golfing experience. We played Irish - it's a fair value in my opinion and while the course can be challenging, it's not overly punitive. Everything is beautiful and well kept - definitely a very nice view. The clubhouse was nice and the food at the restaurant was very good. Very friendly staff and high quality caddies top off the experience.

carol miller

Great experience!! Challenging course, great caddies who know the course that help you with insight of the course when you play. Hope to come again!! Scenery spectacular!

Jeff Marsicano

Obviously a top notch place to play. The course was in immaculate shape. The weather in June was cool and the wind was not too bad. The pub on the second floor of the clubhouse was a great place to grab lunch and a beer before or after a round. We ate at the restaurant downstairs for dinner. The food was good but the service left a lot to be desired. Overall a great experience.

Ethan Wessel

The Whistling Straits golf facility lived up to its expectation, plus much more. What a great pair of golf venues to walk, especially with the accommodating caddies on the Straits course. Playing in late September, both courses were in fantastic condition: Some of the purest, most challenging greens you might see today. Each golf hole/view seemed to get better and better as the round progressed. Hope this won't be my only trip over there!

Justin Hoppock

When we called and asked if the greens would be aerated/sanded they told us they do that weeks ahead of our planned trip and they would be pristine by the time we got there. Played a few days ago and they were covered in hole punctures. Very disappointing. Made me feel like they only care about getting your money versus taking care of the customer. Too expensive to spend that much money to play on subpar greens. Id suggest coming here in June-Aug.

Alex Gasick

Ive played several Major Championship golf courses and The Straits course is hands down my favorite. Amazing experience and highly recommend for any golf enthusiast.

Kelly Weirich

Gorgeous course.

Peter Aumann

Simply beautiful!

Theo coulis

The course was beautiful. Very challenging. 5 and a half hour round though is ridiculous

Richard Thyer

The facilities are top notch and the Straits course is phenomenal. The place feels like it had been there for hundreds of years. The architecture is really a throwback yet with all the modern niceties. The courses are both a big challenge but play fair. The Irish plays harder in my opinion. We played the Straits course in a day the wind was blowing thirty. It was a true links golf experience. It's impossible to say which hole is the prettiest. Not a single hole is disappointing.

James Higbee

Excellent, but difficult course. Some really great vistas. Challenging, but fair.

Danny O'Brien

Best course I've ever played. Hands down

FA Hayek

Straits course was the nicest I've ever played, and that includes many PGA courses. Nothing, not even Pebble, can match the waterfront views. Makes Arcadia Bluffs look like a municipal course.

Todd Myers

Amazing course, second year here for a Jr PGA tournament and this year I got to play practice round with my daughter on the Irish course.Staff is 5 stars as is the course!!!

Dan Schmitt

Atmosphere cozy and menu selection was was amazing

Ken VanOrden

Great Pete Dye course right on Lake Michigan. Excellent customer service in the pro shop, restaurant and on the course.

Edward McGlynn

Excellent golf course! We also had a caddie by the name of Juius for our four days. He was outstanding!

Satoru Asato

A beautiful, lakeside links course! If you have a bucket list or thinking of starting one, this is a must. Only downside to playing this course is pace of play, a 5 hour round. Our foursome waited pretty much on every single hole starting with 8th hole. In the end, our foursome finished in 5 hours and 15 minutes. Ugh! I would love to play here again but not if i it still takes 5+ hours.

Chad Stone

Incredible views on a world class course

Cariad Ginola

Popped in to see the venue for the 2020 Rider Cup. Staff couldn't have been more accommodating. Lovely lunch in the Irish bar too.

Rod Scott

Awesome, very spendy tho
