Lawsonia (Woodlands)
The Golf Courses of Lawsonia feature two of Wisconsin's best-quality championship layouts, the very impressive Links and also well-rated Woodlands. As their names suggest, one is an open links-style layout in the British tradition, the other a well-crafted and challenging tree-lined parkland course. Both provide a wonderful test for your all-round game with many excellent holes to enjoy.
The Woodlands course, a much tighter contrast to the Links layout, is densely tree-lined and guarded by a series of about 80 sand traps. Considered a modern target course, it includes dramatic elevation changes, and large bent grass greens that are moderately fast and well bunkered.
Stay&Play at Lawsonia Links: although not a full golf resort, Lawsonia offers a Stay&Play opportunity with two onsite rental houses.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance.
Non-metal spike facility. Walking permitted on the Links course, but on weekends green fee is the same whether walking or using a cart. Golf cart compulsory on Woodland course. Golf carts are fitted with GPS.

Presidents Cup: Geoff Ogilvy’s International Team take on Brandt Snedeker’s USA Team at the revered Medinah Country Club, near Chicago. The Internationals are trying to halt a run of 11 consecutive American wins. (Sept 24-27).
French Open: Continental Europe’s oldest national championship, dating from 1906, is once again staged on the Albatros Course at Le Golf National, near Paris. Defending champion is America’s Michael Kim. (Sept 24-27).
Our visit last month included two rounds at Golf de Chantilly, one of France’s most prestigious clubs.
It offers two superb layouts: Le Vineuil, a five-star championship course with a rich history, and Longères, an excellent four-star course that provides a strong and enjoyable test.
The wider Paris region offers plenty more. Courses such as Fontainebleau, Golf de Saint-Germain, and several other top-rated layouts make this area one of Europe’s most rewarding golf destinations, offering a mix of woodland, heathland, and parkland designs.
The Dutch: "It's no' just a game", as they say in Scotland, and that's certainly true at The Dutch. With 5-star services throughout, a lavishly comfortable Loch Lomond-inspired clubhouse, and a superbly designed and presented golf course, one could not ask for more from this top-end private club.
Join us at The Dutch from August 21–24 for the Festival of Golf, featuring the HotelPlanner Tour. Experience four days of top-tier sport, live music, incredible food, and unexpected surprises.
