For unforgettable golf on a links-style course in Kohler, Wisconsin, play the Straits Course at Whistling Straits on your golf vacation. The course stretches across two miles along Lake Michigan, giving off majestic views and rolling winds from the lake. 
 
On the Straits course, you can expect a special challenge on #17, dubbed “Pinched Nerve”, for it is the most difficult par-3 on the course. You’ll soon forget you’re in Wisconsin and imagine you’re in Ireland when you see the flocks of sheep roaming the greens. Designed by Pete Dye, this course was ranked #3 in Golf Digest’s “America’s 100 Greatest Public Golf Courses” for 2011-2012 making it a must-play for your next Wisconsin golf vacation.
