About this course
Rock River Country Club sits in Waupun, Wisconsin, and today operates under the name The Rock Golf Club. The course opened for play in 1927 and occupies rolling ground along the Rock River in southeastern Wisconsin. The original front nine still carries mature trees from the early routing, while a links-style back nine was reshaped in the early 1980s with 29 sand bunkers and open, wind-exposed fairways. The two nines give the round a split personality: a tighter, tree-framed old side and a more exposed, hazard-heavy new side. The club operates as a semi-private facility, offering memberships alongside outside play, with a pro shop, driving range, and an indoor golf simulator for winter practice. The course plays to about 6,819 yards from the back markers.

Fox Lake Golf Club
Fox Lake, WI · 8.8 mi away
Fox Lake Golf Club is a semi-private golf course in Fox Lake, Wisconsin, founded in 1922 as a nine-hole lakeside course and expanded to 18 holes in 2004. Six local men built the original course by hand that first summer along the shores of Fox Lake. The newer links-style holes feature large greens and alternate with the original wooded holes, which have smaller greens. The club celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2022 and continues to host league play in Fox Lake.
Monroe Country Club
Monroe, WI · 9.8 mi away
Monroe Country Club, also known as Monroe Golf Club, sits a few miles outside downtown Monroe, Wisconsin, on land purchased from local farms in 1923. Golf at the site dates to 1924, when a nine-hole course opened on an 80-acre former farm; a second nine was added by 1969. The original layout was set out by Chicago-based designer Harry Smead. The club operated as a private membership course for decades before opening its tee sheet to public play in 2020, following years of financial strain. Three local business owners purchased the club in 2023, ahead of its 100th anniversary, and have since invested in course and clubhouse upgrades, including a shorter Little Gem course for beginners. The club remains open to public and member play today.
Old Hickory Golf Club
Beaver Dam, WI · 14 mi away
Old Hickory Golf Club is an 18-hole course east of Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, dating to 1920 and designed by Tom Bendelow with later work by Billy Sixty Jr. The course plays 6,727 yards from the back tees at a par of 72 over rolling terrain with target-style holes and elevation changes. The club is semi-private but open to public play, with a restaurant, banquet facilities and pro shop. It typically operates from April through November, and the dining room has built a following for Friday dinners and summer terrace seating.
