Sand Valley Golf Courses
Sand Valley
Bill Coore & Ben Crenshaw (2017)
3,883-6,938 yards
The Sand Valley Course presents a mesmerizing journey across expansive sandy dunes, reminiscent of the great links courses of Scotland and Ireland.
Every hole is a work of art, meticulously crafted by Coore and Crenshaw to challenge and inspire players of all skill levels. From the strategic bunkering to the undulating greens, each aspect of the course demands precision and creativity from tee to green.
Mammoth Dunes
David McLay Kidd (2018)
4,055-6,988 yards
Mammoth Dunes offers a different yet equally captivating golfing experience, with wide fairways, dramatic elevation changes, and bold architectural features that evoke a sense of adventure with every swing.
Sedge Valley
Tom Doak (2024)
3,753-6,215 yards
This newest addition to the resort was inspired by classic layouts found in England, drawing from coastal heathland tracks.
Contrasting the links landscapes of Mammoth and Sand Valley, Sedge Valley will present challenges that Doak believes have stood the test of time. The course is set to open in July 2024.
The Lido
Tom Doak and Brian Schneider (2023)
4,016-7,387 yards
Speaking of time travel, The Lido at Sand Valley brings a course lost to history back to life. Originally opened in 1914 on Long Island, NY, the original Charles Blair Macdonald track was lost when the Navy demolished it in the 1940s during WWII.
At the time, the course was held in high regard as one of the best in the world. Now, golfers can play a replica of that, but only if you stay at the resort, and only on certain days.
The Sandbox
Bill Coore & Ben Crenshaw
The resort’s 17-hole short course, also designed by Coore and Crenshaw, is mere yards from the clubhouse.
Boasting unique green complexes, this sand prairie design provides an intimate connection with the Central Wisconsin landscape. Holes range from 40 to 140 yards, making this a perfect place to practice your short game or settle unresolved games from the main courses.
