I think this course should change the name to: a. The sandbox (for the amount of sand there was on the fairways and greens, no sand traps mind you) b. The corn maze (it's probably the only course I played where getting from hole to hole took longer than playing; and the layout, is a bit strange, discombobulated, all over the place) c. Loose your head (the back nine are just a terrible quality, uneven, with weeded farmland around, if you choose to ride it, man, hold on to you hats, and heads...holly bumps). Other than that, the service was friendly. And the banquette hall looks nice. read more

BEWARE DUFFERS! If you're the average golfer like me who tends to drive the ball into the rough, plan on bringing two dozen balls with you! Basically, the holes by the club house look well maintained and groomed, but once you approach the back the holes look like reclaimed farmland! There is no break between the fairways and the rough. It is mostly thick, ankle-tall prickly plant life with gopher holes everywhere! Once you hit your ball in that crap....IT'S GONE! The fairways are no better than your mama's backyard turf. There are soooo many better courses to play for the same money or less! If you want to learn to hate the game of golf, then golf at Deer Haven Golf Course! It is if this course was designed to punish golfers! UGH!! read more

Golfed 3pm 5/14/16 Pros/Cons 3 Cons: 1) When checking in for our tee time, the poor girl at the register STRANGELY (and slightly scared?) turned the transaction over to the owner when renting a cart was mentioned. (-1*) We made fun of him i.e. "Soup Cart Nazi" (+1*). NO CART FOR YOU! 2. Poor course directions. There weren't signs on every hole so it was confusing on where to go, & park cart, next. (-2*) However, we had a good laugh at the 6th with two signs hanging perpendicular, and two tee boxes/fairways. (+1*). Take your pick on hole six, one leads to 7, the other... ? 3) THEN, LOL (this was surreal) the owner came up to us in our cart, after our round, and noticed we had each drank one large Corona beer. He warned us (politely) that next time he would have to ticket us $160 each for bringing carry-ons onto the course. As if he had a badge and a ticket book in his back pocket. (-2*) We were going to stay, maybe grab a bite in the clubhouse, watch the remainder of the Brewer game, "purchase" a FEW more beers...but after that INANE remark by the owner.... My friend, who's also my lawyer, said "it's my imaginary legal opinion that we bolt before he writes us an imaginary ticket". And of course laughed about the SURREAL experience at Deer Haven the rest of the afternoon at NB Ale House. (+1*) Three Pros: 1) Decent greens, tee boxes, and fareways (+1*) 2) Good value especiallly when using Entertainment Coupon (+2*) 3) Played at an easy pace as it wasn't crowded on a 70° sunny Saturday afternoon (+2*) Anyways, I'll be sure to come back, with a beer in hand, despite my attorney's advice. read more

Note that there is new management here, and it is a world of difference. They love the game of golf and want you to have a good time. Prices are very reasonable for golf, drinks, cigars etc. A great track to just work your irons and some tough holes that will challenge your fairway woods. Best kept secret in New Berlin. read more

The course is not in good shape but I have not played in 2 years so it worked for me. The was no one behind me so I was able to play as many balls as I wanted. For $10.50 it was cheaper than the range. read more

Don't bite on the Groupon deals for this course. Yes, it's cheap but there is a reason for that. It's more like a farm/corn field that someone thought could be a golf course. Horrible layout, really poor conditions and don't even think about walking through the weeds to look for your ball. They are filled with stinging nettle that will irritate the heck out of you for a few hours if you can stand to finish your round of golf. Bad, bad, bad place to golf. You're far better off looking at Brookfield Hills for a deal. read more

This review is for a visit to the indoor golf simulators at Deer Haven on 1/6/2018. In Wisconsin, it's tough to find an indoor facility, unless you belong to a country club or pay crazy lesson prices at the big box golf retailer. I'm really impressed with the indoor simulators at Deer Haven. Reasonably priced and fairly accurate on full swing, pitches and chips. I like to stick with the driving range and chipping green, but the courses seem like authentic representations. They have a full bar; no food but they allow you to bring food or have it delivered. read more

This is a glorified par three course with some very tight fairway holes near the back. It's not really a fair course and expect to lose a lot of balls. The cost for senior golf including a cart was $16 which is for nine holes and is ridiculous. This course is not worth $16. You can golf many better courses for less or even find some very good courses that will give you 18 holes for the same price. I won't be going back. For what it's worth, when I went on a Friday morning the place was empty. Now I know why. read more

I had my wedding here in August 2017. IT WAS PERFECT. Jeff was amazing! The pricing for the venue, ceremony, bar packages, and catering were very affordable. We were able to use the space for rehearsal and set up the day before. The clean up was hassle-free! The inside of the banquet hall is GORGEOUS. We had 160 people and it wasn't cramped or crowded. Just perfect. Thank you, Jeff! read more

Low cost golf, extremely low quality course. There is a minimal level of upkeep that I expect. Even at $15 / 9 holes. This course cannot even hit a minimal level of quality. I have given the course several chances and it has been nothing but a dump every time. Will not golf again and would never recommend it to anyone. read more

I've been here a few times before and it's been... ok. I had a tee time for a Saturday morning and we were one of three groups on the course. Our cart died on the 7th hole and we called five times before somebody at the clubhouse answered the phone. One poor guy working everything. He ran a cart to us immediately and apologized but said that the particular cart we had "does that a lot." We were in one of 20 carts they had but they still send that one out? The cart paths were not taken care of well and the 6th hole hit in two directions, only one of which was listed on the score card. ?!? It's a cheap and easy 9 holes but at times just seems like you are playing in a backyard. read more

This place downright sucks. Worst golf course I've ever played. Mind you, I played well but I'm surprised at that because I had an awful time. Sell this place and let it become a farm. Not worth the money paid....and I even had a coupon read more

I really enjoy this course, for 9 holes, with the new layout, I always have fun! We've had our Church golf outing there for several years, and everyone enjoys the course! read more

Clearly under new management. Joe was friendly and helpful. Indoor simulators and full bar make for a nice winter option in our chilly climate. I was there for an event in Feb. and everyone had a good time using the simulators. I'm not a golfer, but my husband is, so I'm looking forward to nicer weather when I can relax on the patio while he golfs. Will definitely bring the kids to work on their game at the practice area and on the course. read more

It was a very reasonable price. Then again it's basically a par three course. Not very well kept course and the carts are super old and mine didn't really have breaks. They do have good deals though with each day of the week being a special with golf and food after. I'll give them that but that's about it. Oh. The workers are friendly too. read more

What a waste of 40 bucks. This is almost a par 3 course. The couse is so short and narrow. One hole has a fairway opening of no more then 30 yards. Unless your 75 years old and hit.the ball 150 yards down the middle eveytime this course will drive you up the wall. This is not a golf course. read more

Can I give 0 stars??? Weeds, sand, and mud. Even the employees don't want to play there.

I have quite a different perspective of Deer Haven than many of these other reviewers.... I like the place. I've golfed it with my wife several times when it was 9, when it was 18 and again when it was 9. Yes, it's short (for me. For my wife it's still several strokes to get to the green) but it's good iron practice. And, there are still a few holes to pull out the driver and crush it if that's what makes you feel good. Yes, it's narrow - don't slice, hook or screw up because it is surrounded by woods and thick brush. You can lose golf balls. I'm not sure where to find those nasty nettles Pete mentioned but it is fairly "rustic" - if they grow in the wild, they are probably at Deer Haven SOMEWHERE. Does it wind around and meander? Yes. Yes it does. Know what, I have been golfing for 44 years and haven't been to a golf course that doesn't to some degree. Sheesh, we're complaining about a golf course that isn't straight as an arrow with 18 holes perfectly parallel to each other, each of which is 200 yards wide so as to not lose sight of our balls? Anyway, as our children have grown, we've gotten them into golfing and Deer Haven has been where we go as a family. Our two youngest have almost as much fun searching for lost balls as actually golfing with their parents and I end up with some really good quality golf balls. I feel especially bad for Shawn because I've let our 13 year old drive the cart with my wife and I've had the 11 and 9 year old kids with me. I have let the 11 year old drive a couple times but not my 9 year old yet. We've never had a run-in with the owner or manager yet. Knock on wood. The only other golf course we have found more kid friendly than Deer Haven is a fantastic course called Golden Sands by Silver Lake in Oceana County, Michigan. Deer Haven's fairways and greens are well tended to and have been in good shape each of our visits. We've found the clubhouse and staff pleasant and accommodating. I am surprised to hear they charge for the putting green - that's not cool in my opinion and we'll check a bit close next time we are there to substantiate that report. Note to Kevin A: Dude, tell me where i can golf 18 holes with a cart for less than $16 - I will buy your beer!! read more
