Arkdale, WI

Northern Bay Resort sits on the shores of Castle Rock Lake in Arkdale, Wisconsin, about thirty minutes north of Wisconsin Dells. Its golf course, built in 2005, is a replica-style layout recreating famous holes from courses such as Augusta National, TPC Sawgrass, Oakland Hills, Firestone, and Bay Hill. The 18-hole course lets golfers play versions of well-known holes, including an island green modeled on the 17th at Sawgrass, in one round on a single property in the northwoods of central Wisconsin. A grass driving range supports the course. Northern Bay operates as a resort, pairing the golf course with lakeside condominium lodging, on-site dining, and event space for weddings and meetings. Tee times and dynamic seasonal pricing are available through the resort's booking system, and the property is pet friendly.
