Where2Golf says:
Grand Geneva Resort & Spa is home to two well-rated and popular championship golf courses: the Brute and the Highlands. At over 7000 yards the Brute is one of Wisconsin's most challenging tree-lined and open parkland layouts. Enhanced with 68 bunkers and huge rolling greens, which average over 8,000 square feet, this par-72 course lays down a real test for golfers of all levels. This is a championship golf course that ranks with some of the best in Wisconsin. The tree-lined and open parkland layout provides a wonderful test for your all-round game, with many attractive, skilfully crafted and challenging holes to enjoy. A must play if you are in the area.
On-site accommodation provides the opportunity to rise from your bed and head straight for the first tee at either of Grand Geneva's courses at this Stay & Play location.

Grand Geneva originally opened in 1968 as the Lake Geneva Playboy Club Hotel, a lush property that served as a luxury escape for Midwest travellers. It was the first Playboy Club Hotel to open in the U.S., and brought a touch of Hugh Hefner-style glamour to the community of Lake Geneva. The Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired hotel featured many opulent design elements including an indoor pool with connecting passage to an outdoor pool, two championship golf courses, and a ski lounge designed in the shape of two interlocking snowflakes. Guests were transported around the resort on the hotel’s “Bunny Tram,” and were waited on by "bunny girls" in their signature corsets, puffy tails, and bunny ears.

US Amateur Championships: the world’s oldest women’s amateur championship is hosted at Old Waverly in Mississippi (Aug 5-11), and the men’s second oldest amateur championship at legendary Pinehurst No.2 (Aug 12-18).(British) Senior Open: heads for Royal Lytham & St Anne’s with Miguel Ángel Jiménez defending his title (July 25-28).

| Walton Heath Golf Club (Old course): Top golfers and golf writers have long acknowledged Walton Heath as one of the finest heathland courses in the British Isles. In fact there are two courses here, the Old and New. Read more... |
| The Welcombe Hotel Spa & Golf Club: provides an excellent Stay & Play opportunity, just a mile out of town from William Shakespear's birthplace in the centre of Stratford. The golf course, laid out in the grounds of a sumptuous stately mansion (now hotel), offers many undulating and stylishly crafted golf holes. Read more... |
Royal Ostend Golf Club: represents Belgium’s only real "beside-the-seaside" links golf course (others like Royal Zoute are located a little way inland). Here at Ostend many holes make excellent use of an impressive area of sand dunes. From the long par-4 5th through to the par-5 14th, you play across fabulously open and gently undulating golfing terrain, with few trees, fine sea views and probably a bit of North Sea wind thrown in for good measure.

| Koksijde Golf ter Hille Golf Club: on what was previously open farmland, an enjoyable and challenging links-style layout has been crafted. Perhaps the inspiration for Koksijde's new course came from a renowned Harry Colt layout that existed in the 1920s just a couple of kilometres to the west. Read more... |
