Grand Geneva Resort and Spa

Very unique wacky (little) 18 hole located near the Ski Chalet area of Resort. Hard to find just keep driving through resort following signs to ski slope. Its literally a five minute, roughly 2 mile trek thru resort. Mostly small open shots up and down the ski hills. Elevation changes are fantastic and there are some woods that come into play mid course. The main negative is the tees themselves. Or shall i say "lack of tees". All are thick grass or dirt, poorly marked and very uneven. Some are e ...

Its literally a five minute, roughly 2 mile trek thru resort. Mostly small open shots up and down the ski hills.

All are thick grass or dirt, poorly marked and very uneven. Some are extremely slanted with no real footing at all. All in all though i would say the elevation changes make it a very enjoyable course and the landscape is one of a kind.

Pros: Beautiful setting. The course plays up and down a ski area for the Grand Geneva Resort and Spa. It's a big hill with spectacular views of a beautiful part of Wisconsin. The view in the fall will be stunning. Wide open elevation shots. Honestly, this is the reason to play this course. Most courses I've played with elevation are in the woods, here you are throwing wide open into the wind. It's incredibly satisfying to throwing a putter into the wind at a basket 50' below you.

Pros: Beautiful setting. The course plays up and down a ski area for the Grand Geneva Resort and Spa. It's a big hill with spectacular views of a beautiful part of Wisconsin. The view in the fall will be stunning.

Wide open elevation shots. Honestly, this is the reason to play this course. Most courses I've played with elevation are in the woods, here you are throwing wide open into the wind. It's incredibly satisfying to throwing a putter into the wind at a basket 50' below you.

Cons: The distances on the tee signs are in yards, and completely made up far too often
So much of the potential of this property is dashed with an uninspired design. This could have complimented a growing number of excellent disc golf courses in the area. Unfortunately the course is mainly ho-hum. Most of the holes are wide open and dull.
The tee boxes as not all level. Some of them are poorly placed.
Other Thoughts: This course is obviously designed to appeal to families at the resort. The holes are mostly straight ahead with little challenge.

It's obvious that the course is frequented by folks who are just looking for something fun to do. I've played a lot of courses designed for this, and if that's the criteria, this course is one of the best in that regard.
This course is pay to play, $5 dollars. Not really a good value.
