Krooked Kreek Golf Club has a scenic location nestled between the bluffs of the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway and the glacial eskers of western Wisconsin. The aptly named course has a creek that zigzags haphazardly across the landscape. The golf course was opened as a nine-hole course in 1990 and the back nine was added five years later. The front nine sprawls across mostly flat terrain and the generous greens offer some rooms for error, but you'll have to be careful because the layout gets tougher on the back nine. The greens are much smaller on the back side and they are much more undulating, making accuracy and thoughtful course management the key to a good score. Wetlands come into play on 11 holes at Krooked Kreek Golf Club, and there are also strategically placed bunkers throughout.

Lots of Fun

Front nine is pretty open so it's a driver paradise. Back nine is harder with some tighter approach shots but still fairly open. It's a fun course but above average players may not find it challenging enough. Pace of play was awesome with 18 done in three and a half hours.

Great course!

This course is a lot of fun to play! All of the greens have their own challenges and the fairways are always in excellent condition. For the price you can’t find a better course to play.

This course has plenty to offer!

Krooked Kreek is the best course to play outside the cities. Easy to get to, usually cheap and well worth it. A lot of dog-leg holes but honestly islets a great challenge if that’s your thing. Definitely a must play if you haven’t yet.

Fun course

The course was in great condition considering the cold winter and wet spring. The only issue my husband and I encountered was hole 12, we had difficulty finding the green, maybe an improved sign with directions.
