Erin Hills Golf Course Reviews

Awesome time. Felt like a bag piper was following me through the fescue!

Excellent - great course - a challenging course well

Challenging golf course in rural setting. The 2017 US Open was held at Erin Hills. The cost per round is significantly higher than in just about any other course within 25 miles.

Great course, outstanding service and excellent food!

They have a great food management, very good chiefs and great service.

The course is beautiful and the on site amenities were all very nice. The course is a challenging walk at best if your cardio isn't up to snuff.

Walked 18 holes with the clubs on the back today.
6.9 miles. Played from the white t-boxes. It was still a lot of course to handle.
Crazy!

Amazing experience! The course was awesome! One of the members of our group shipped his clubs and they didn t arrive . Erin Hills offered to drive the clubs to him multiple hours away so he could play at our next destination . They really went above and beyond. .

Tough course to play even with a caddie because it's about a 7 mile walk up and down hills that are natural. The course was great, but be prepared for the walk. I found that it affected my game negatively after about 15 holes. Do it while you are young!

Gorgeous location in the Kettle Moraine of SE Wisconsin. Impeccable service and top-notch facilities.

Beautiful golf course. Professional caddies with great advice on playing each hole. Great bar and food options. Worth every penny!

Absolutely loved being on this course for the US Open. I wish I could afford a round of golf there. So much for Lang's vision of a $50 round on a championship. At least Brown Deer is a championship course which is affordable for the average golfer.

Great course. Awesome place to go to outside of Milwaukee with great hospitality.

The course is top notch. The staff is friendly and helpful. Beautiful views, caddies were fantastic. It was a once in a lifetime experience and glad it was one I got to experience. Loved every single minute!!?

Best time I've ever had on a golf course! Every part of the course is groomed to perfection; tee boxes, fairways, greens, bunkers. The caddies provide excellent, and much needed course advice! The clubhouse is in tip-top shape. Everyone should give themselves a chance to play this course at least once in their lifetime!

Erin Hills is simply a beautiful parcel of Wisconsin. I was here for a practice round during 2017's US Open Golf Tournament and I walked nearly the entire course. Even with many people present, birds could be heard chirping and the views -- often including distant Holy Hill (roughly 3 miles away) -- were gorgeous. I particularly like how the course developers relished and saved the native landscape (somewhat). I haven't golfed here yet -- I think my crude skills would dampen my enjoyment of the place -- but to just be out here is quite magnificent.

This is a very nice course. Its also a VERY long walk. The course itself i would put slighly below the straits, but the caddies and service, awesome! They ultimately put it above whistling for me. I will take a round here over any in Wisconsin. Just be prepared to walk a long ways.

A beautiful course that clearly presents a challenge. It was a great place to watch the US Open!

Spectacular course, great facility and truly amazing caddies (thx Collin and Alex!) . Enjoyed more than Straits

Erin Hills is worth the price and it's worth the drive. I had a great time on their course. The grounds are immaculate. The staff was kind. And my caddy was awesome I'm sure he saved me a dozen shots (minimum). Can't wait to get back to Wisconsin to play it again.

Just amazing. Course if fun yet accessible for public players... just an epic time here

This course was the site of the 2017 US Open. It is a monster of a course that will definately challenge the best of golfers. If your looking for a flat course, this one is not for you. If your looking for a course that will offer you beautiful views while challenging your golfing skills... this is the place.

Golf is a journey and this is the place to enjoy it

Phenomenal course and lodging. Course is tough but fair even for a 15 handicapper. Menu and wine list are great. Everyone on staff couldn't have been more friendly and accommodating

Beautiful destination golf course in a perfect setting.

Amazing... 5 hour round. 2 hours of lunch and cocktails. 4 hours on the Drumlin. Thank you Erin Hills. No exaggeration, the best facility and golf course ive ever enjoyed/played. The staff is incredible.

Beautiful golf course... Period. Bring your A game.

Incredibly challenging. Incredibly expensive. Great bar to forget about how high you shot.

Saw the us open here... Great course and venue... smooth action all day.

Fabulous venue for the US Open Golf Tournament. Needed to provide more spectator seating grandstand options.

This place without visiting it will change my life ... so I have it pending soon

Great experience from start to finish. It's always a treat to play and test your game where the pros play. One tip to anyone looking to go play....HIRE A CADDIE! This is a walking only course, and I decided to carry my own. There is constant elevation change, which makes for a great test of golf (uphill, downhill, and sidehill lies), but a very challenging walk if you're carrying your own clubs. I was a little overmatched :) But would happily play again with a caddie!

Great golf course to show off the beauty of the Kettle Moraine area of Wisconsin. Generously spaced viewing areas to comfortably accommodate twice the fans that were present on the weekend of the US OPEN.

Lives up to its name and price tag. I have never golfed somewhere like this before. Get here early and do the 12 hole putting course beforehand. My caddy kellan was fantastic and put up with my general poor performance and had great insight to the course.

Definitely would like to golf this course again

Everyone made us a feel welcome from the minute we walked on the property. Practice facilities are top notch. Our caddie Ryan was a terrific. 80 degrees no clouds in the sky and didn't wait once the whole day. A perfect day for a wonderful walk! Golf at its finest.

What a gem of a course to host the 2017 U.S. Open...

The course is in fantastic shape but if you get an opportunity to play this course...STAY OUT OF THE FESCUE

Definitely the best course in the state of Wisconsin

Erin Hills was in great shape. I believe we got one of the last tee times available before the U.S. Open Next year! Very cool course, I would say the buildings and barns give it a unique feel. If you can afford to stay in one of the cabins on the grounds, do it! Also with Holy Hill in the background it has the perfect backdrop for beautiful pictures. The course is great, not the best I have ever played but a top 10 for sure. It depends on the wind and the tees, a scratch golfer can shoot 70 or 90 depending on how it is set up for the day and the conditions.

Amazing course. PGA experience. Caddies are awesome. Great customer service. Would highly recommend to an experienced golfer. Will play again.

Erin Hills sits amongst gently rolling farmland and woodland to the northwest of Milwaukee. Erin Hills is one of a number of high-profile public-access "retro-links" courses to hit the headlines in recent years. Although its peers (including the likes of Whistling Straits, Arcadia Bluffs, Chambers Bay and Bandon Dunes) are all scenically located oceanside or lakeside, the absence of a waterside setting doesn't detract from the pleasures and challenges of Erin Hills.

What an incredible experience. Course and staff were phenomenal.

Very clean and comfortable installation for lovers of good golf

I haven't played this U.S. Open course yet but the scenery is awesome. Mostly glacier shaped landscape with lots of flowing fescue. Bring a camera.

An amazing course and one that should not be missed if you can play it. The golf experience is fantastic and the club has a unique feel. It is not an easy walk as the course has a lot of hills but if you have a chance to play it then make sure you do. Great course!

I had the opportunity to play Erin Hills twice in high school for the Lake Country Charity Invitational. If you don't know, it's a great tournament for a great cause that routinely raises thousands of dollars for the MAAC fund. There really couldn't be a better course to host a tournament for such an important cause. Unfortunately the first time I played the tournament, it was about 35 degrees out with 15-25 mph winds and a driving rain and the round got called after about 10 holes. That year I started on the 4th hole and I was in the process of playing the 14th when it got called. I won't lie, the weather made things miserable but the course made it probably as enjoyable as a round of golf can be in those conditions. The year after that, however, we got pretty much the best conditions possible for April in Wisconsin which allowed the course to be experienced in its full glory. I tend to play my best on links style courses and managed a 76 in my first full round on the challenging layout despite 4 three-putts. I'm looking forward to trying to qualify for the Wisconsin State Am there this summer

Had a fantastic time at the US open is a gorgeous course and can't wait to play

It was an awesome experience to be a part of a championship such as the US Open.

Okay course. I will say this, it's not a very picturesque course.

Second to none staff, facilities, and amenities. An amazing experience with a wonderful people!

I just visited for the second time in 6 years. The conditions were top notch...firm and fast everywhere. This is an true architectural gem in modern golf design. Spread out over an enormous piece of property, each hole was designed to utilize the pre-existing natural contours. The green complexes are what sets this course apart from other wannabe links-style modern designs. Forget about the lob shot recovery from around the greens. Rather, be prepared to play along the ground with a putter, 7 iron, 5 iron or even hybrid. Any short game weaknesses will be quickly exposed here.
The new Drumlin putting course is an incredible addition. Lit at night, putting is quite challenging when you can't see all of the different ways to play putts because of the shadows. Grab a cocktail and enjoy. Amazing.
Accomodations are first class too. I've stayed in two cottages...consistently excellent, designed for groups to enjoy with a common living space and private outdoor areas.
And lastly, the F&B experience... Friendly staff, great food, comfortable environment.
Love this place.

Just beautiful. Had no idea how huge it is. Except for the mud after the rain, perfect. (After being in the wash machine, my tennies came out great. All the employees were so friendly and helpful. Food in the
Concessions tent delicious. Great experience.

Attended the US Open here. Beautiful grounds. The USGA really put on a quality event at this course. Hope to see more events held here.

Don't get me wrong. This is a beautiful golf course in pristine condition. I just don't think it's worth $400+ to play, especially in late June (we teed off at 930am and it was 89 and humid). It kind of felt like Disneyworld. As a comparison, you can play Torrey Pines South (also a US Open course) for ~$250 in the summer. This course would be considerably more enjoyable if they allowed golf carts (everyone in my group made the same comment as soon as our round ended, including two who were members of Oakmont CC).

I was not willing to carry my clubs for 18 holes in 90 degree heat coming off a back surgery. So I chose my only other option: getting a caddie (not even pull carts were available). Given that caddies were (essentially) required, I was expecting an experienced looper with intimate knowledge of the course. Unfortunately, I was paired with Jane Doe, who was ~18 years old and told me she had been playing golf for 2-3 years. Jane gave me three putting reads that were blatantly wrong. On one hole, she gave me a left-to-right read. I asked her if she meant right-to-left (because the read seemed wrong), and she said "Ah yes sorry. I always get that mixed up." Jane also lost my Titelist cabrera leather glove and microfiber golf towel that were attached to my bag (worth another $50).

Don't get me wrong, Jane was an incredibly nice person who carried my clubs ~9 miles in the heat of summer. So I gave her a $100 tip and wished her well before heading to college. But she shouldn't be a caddie at a local country club, let alone a US Open course.

I cannot recommend this course to any experienced golfer in good conscience. It's a total rip-off that's trying to monetize the fact that they hosted a US open.

Gorgeous setting, challenging layouts, unique use of rough.
