Eagle Springs Golf Resort

Eagle Springs is one of the oldest golf courses in Wisconsin It certainly is one of the courses with the most fascinating histories. It was initially an 18-hole golf course that was open to visitors from Chicago and its subsequent version had two holes that were designed by Chicago Cubs pitcher A.G. Spaulding. The rest were "designed in the nature of the area" according to owner William Tuohy's own words. It was during the Great Depression led to the closing of half the holes and the remaining ones have been transformed into an 18-hole course that are becoming a focal point in the golf community.

You may have guessed from the description of Tuohy of the course's natural layout There is definitely a some niggle to be found. There is no better hole to demonstrate the old-fashioned approach of the course than the hole at No. 2, a hole that is so clever that it's possible that Donald Ross would blush at the difficultness. Even though this green is flat on top of its earthen traffic cone, other holes move like Lake Michigan during a storm.

The golf course is in the fifth generation of ownership by a family, and they're not looking to alter it even a bit.
