book it on GolfNow
The course was in better shape than I expected after reading reviews. There is some repair work going on, but at least that means they're attempting to improve things. Some greens were pretty rough but we are in the middle of a drought here, so it kinda come with it. The round was booked for me by my boys for a fathers day gift and they paid 80 bucks a head. It's not an 80 dollar course, but the prices you can score on here would definitely be a deal. The scenery is good, the layout is pretty challenging without being terrible. There is no range, even though it says on here that there is. I played the Prairie Glen course a few years ago, that was a really pretty course. I don't know if it's still in as good of shape still, but may be worth checking.
Glacier Course is in poor shape
Much of the Glacier Course was under repair. The only yardage markers were the USGA slabs on the tee boxes, no fairway markers. All sand traps were under repair, 1/4 of the greens had bald spots (no grass), and a lot of the fences and cart paths were in bad shape. I was warned when we arrived that a few of the greens were in bad shape, however, I wish I were given the option to play the Prairie Course as it looked to be in much better shape. We didn't see a single person on the Glacier Course, and now I know why.
Beautiful location but coarse needs work
Beautifully located in the Baraboo Bluffs. Many sand traps were under repair and the greens were in average condition at best. Course needs some TLC especially at this price point. Definitely has potential due to the location, scenery and wildlife.
Played the first 9 holes in under 2 hours, then 3 hours to finish. There was a group of 10 ppl 2 groups ahead of us. The foursome directly ahead of us were incredibly slow, laying & rolling around the greens, fooling around all over the course. At one point, we waited 15 minutes to tee off. Disappointed they weren’t moved along & that a 10-some was allowed to play
Sad to see how run down the course has become
I play here once or twice a year and this may well me my last, dirt tee boxes, even rubber mats. Sanded greens, damaged greens severely deteriorated cart paths. Obviously running on a shoestring budget. The highlight was at least there was a cart girl.
Devils Head
I have been going to this course for many years and the course maintenance and conditions have deteriorated so badly over time that I find it very sad. Tee boxes are horrible, fairways on many holes are poorly maintained. Pace of play was fine because nobody was there playing. Overall our whole group was very disappointed.
Worth the Trip
I had heard some mixed reviews about Devil's Head, but got a great deal on a stay-and-play package so I decided to check them out. Both courses were laid out in a manner to create a variety of dramatic holes that played up and down the severe terrain that makes Devil's Head a ski destination in the winter time. This created a lot of thought as to what the best way to play many holes for the first time. The conditioning was good for the most part, but several greens and a couple tee boxes looked like they were having issues growing grass (particularly on the Glacier course) which led to not being able to putt out properly. I enjoyed the courses much more than I thought I would overall and would definitely go back to play them in the future.
I played an good course at an excellent price. $25 including the cart fee too. They also have another 18 hole course there as well.
Take a chance on Devils Head
Buddy's trip up to Devils Head did not disappoint on the golf end of things. The Glacier course is a really cool course with some great holes like 4 a boomerang par 4 with a narrow green and rock walls behind it. Or number 8 a dog leg left par 5 that a good drive gets you a shot at an eagle as you go straight downhill probably 2-3 club difference down hill.
This course has some holes that you have to score on like the par 5s and some short par 4s because when you get to 12 and 13 they are pretty difficult holes.
All in all this is a nice course wish the location was better so they could get more play and pump a bunch of money into it because then it would be really good.
Check out food in the Devils Den its REALLY GOOD!
Devil’s Head....Worth a Visit
Played both the Glacier and Prairie courses in one day. Got a great $35 play all day rate on GolfNow. Glacier was a climb up the mountain and back down again. Prairie was also up the mountain for front 9 and back 9 was flatland links with water. Greens on Glacier were in better shape as weather and water has taken a toll on Prairie’s greens. Played in about 6 hours as it was a quiet off season weekday. Cart girl pased by 3-4 times, hot dogs were tasty, and the guy in the clubhouse was friendly and helpful. Would play here again when in the area.
Glacier Canyon Devil's Head
Have been here several times when vacationing in the Dells. Course layout and course conditions were excellent. Greens were wonderful to putt on. Would suggest play it during the week as the weekends are extremely busy and much slower play.
Great Value
Great deal through golf now on a Sunday afternoon. Course was rather empty, although we had a 5some and a 6some in front of our twosome. Both let us through and were very friendly guys having a scramble golf outing. Course was not difficult from the blue tees. No lost balls and no penalty strokes. No sand traps either. My lucky day. The course was in good shape. The greens held well, but were very difficult to read. They looked slow but were rather fast with more break than expected. Not like the bent grass I am used to in Michigan. Beers are pretty expensive at this course as well. More for a 6 pack than I paid for my 18 hole round.
Great crew
As I arrived at the clubhouse, I overheard that they were overbooked by this website. The team they had pulled together and honored all of the tee times booked. It's a great course for the price and they have some top quality employees!
