Ranked #35 in Golf Digest’s “America’s 100 Greatest Public Golf Courses” for 2011-2012, this par-72 course is tough to beat. Renowned golf architect Pete Dye designed both courses, Straits and Irish, so similarity is evident, yet each one offers distinct challenges along the way. The Irish Course features ponds, waste bunkers and ravines, and its inland location near Lake Michigan leads to four streams that shape their way along the course. The Irish Course is a must-play for when you plan your next Wisconsin golf vacation.
