Waupaca Country Club in Falls Spendor




Waupaca Country Club and its unique course have close ties to the rich history of golf in America. “The course was designed in 1923 by Jack Burns, a superintendent at an Appleton, Wis., country club, and a golf lover who is believed to have been strongly influenced by Donald Ross.  Ross believed in fitting the course to the land he found and that’s true of how our course fits its knolls and valleys in Waupaca. Almost all the holes on this course have water in play.  You’re also going to find an impeccably maintained course lined with 200 year old Oaks and 150 year old Pines, mighty trees that glow with color in fall and burst with greenery in spring. Bentgrass rolls across the tees and makes for a smooth quick surface on the tour quality greens. The Waupaca River divides the course, and golfers have to cross the river four times during their rounds of play. The course is 9 holes but set up to play 18 if you wish.

The day I was there Scott gave me the keys to a golf cart and sent me on my way.  It was a glorious day, the fall trees were on fire and the grass was perfect. Here are some of the pic's I took that day.  Enjoy!
