Maple Bluff Golf Club

Frequently Asked Questions

When's the ideal time of year to experience Maple Bluff Golf Club?

We think late spring, from May to early June, is truly magical here. The course is incredibly lush, and the Wisconsin weather is usually perfect- crisp mornings turning into warm, sunny afternoons without the peak summer humidity. You'll find the greens running fast and true during this window.

What kind of golfer will truly enjoy Maple Bluff's layout?

Maple Bluff really shines for the strategic golfer who appreciates a classic, tree-lined design. You'll need to think your way around the course, especially on the back nine where accuracy off the tee is paramount to avoid the mature oaks. It's a fair test, but not overly punishing if you keep it in play.

Are there any must-play holes or unique features at Maple Bluff I should look out for?

Absolutely, don't miss the par-3 14th- it's a beauty. You'll hit over a small pond to a well-guarded green, often with a tricky crosswind that makes club selection critical. The views from the elevated tee box are also fantastic, offering a glimpse of the surrounding bluffs.

What should I know about booking a tee time and the overall cost at Maple Bluff?

Maple Bluff is a semi-private club, so while public play is welcome, booking ahead- especially for weekend mornings- is a must. Green fees are quite reasonable for the quality, typically ranging from $75-100 with a cart, offering great value for a well-maintained course. We recommend calling a week or two out for prime slots.

Beyond the course, what does Maple Bluff Golf Club offer for a complete golf experience?

After your round, you absolutely have to grab a drink and a bite at The Bluffside Grill. Their patio overlooks the 18th green, making it perfect for watching groups finish up, and their Wisconsin cheese curds are legendary. It's a relaxed, friendly atmosphere to unwind and discuss your birdies (or bogeys).
