Amazing golf course Great views Pretty good conditions Caddies are very good and knowledgeable Price....ouch buckle up for a pricey day. So given that it's 30%more than a round at sand valley which is a great venue it makes it a tough pill to swallow. You do get a free brat !!!

The Straits is a bucket list course. Absolutely beautiful and one of my favorite Dye courses. You'll need to be in pretty good shape to walk the course as it's not flat like The Ocean Course in Kiawah. The pace of play is slow so we had an opportunity to take some great pics. We've played this course twice and both times we had fantastic caddies. The food after our rounds was very good and we had a great view of the course.

Worth. The. Hype. Keep in mind that the course is walking only and very undulating. For all intents and purposes you need to be a billy goat to play here. The fact that your caddy will be carrying 2 bags AND loop 36 holes will make you feel like a complete wuss, so be prepared for that. The views are absolutely breathtaking. The course pristine. Greens were a bit slower than expected. To say that there are some dramatic elevation changes on each hole is an understatement. If you are a hack this course will eat you alive. If you are a decent player and use your head the course is fairly manageable. There were a few pins that seemed inaccessible but, if you hit to a fatter part of the green, the ball would funnel to the hole. Rely on your caddy's advice. They're pros. Be sure to tip them well. Without a doubt I'll be back.

A group of industry colleagues and I take a yearly golf trip. This year, Whistling Straits was the choice. With a group size of eight, we were able to schedule back to back tee times and split up in groups of four. On day one we played Irish, and on day two we played the signature Straits and Irish for a second time, but this time we played Irish with carts and no caddy. During our three day visit we played five full rounds. Rounds four and five were at the nearby Blackwolf Run. It was a crisp early May along Lake Michigan and we were dealing with gusty winds and temperatures of 45-50 degrees F. Long pants and a jacket were a must. For each round we had caddy's carrying our bags and giving us shot advice and reads. Our caddies Corey and Terrie were lifesavers and provided excellent shot advice, including helping us to stay out of trouble with the bunkers and water. THERE ARE BUNKERS EVERYWHERE! The courses were in great shape however the greens were noticeably faster on the Straits course. Around every corner you will find lush landscaping meticulously maintained and scenery meant for a post card. We made sure to take lots of photos. This Peter Dye designed masterpiece should be on the bucket list of golf enthusiasts of all skill levels. Back at the pro shop they have all kinds of great logoed merchandise. All in all, I'd have to say this was one of the best golf trips I've taken to date. Our golf package also included a group lesson for our 8 man crew, as well as lodging and breakfast and the Inn on Woodlake in Kohler. There was a shuttle on call from early AM until late in the evening,

A view from the Irish Course's Hole 13 tee. This hole, appropriately named Blind man's Bluff, gives you no view of the green.

See all
