The Rock Golf Club — Restaurant in Waupun

Go for the beautiful landscapes with carefully tended greens , stately trees (100 yrs old)?), and prairie grass outlining the course. I'm not a golfer but I wish I was after playing 9 holes. The trees , the streams with bridges, and tiny ponds dotting the course ( I saw an egret ? and picked up a wandering frog to return to safety). This golf course would make an interesting painting when one considers the trees are so old but seem symmetrically placed. The clubhouse bar has local beers on tap , interesting cocktails, and a beautiful view of the course. Order the food ! I had a Havana sandwich that would rival any chefs best sandwich. The pretzel appetizer was the size of a plate, lightly buttered, and freshly baked. The other appetizers rivaled the pretzel! The staff was outstanding despite the volume of customers. The dining room features a beautiful display of the course. Nice place for a retirement dinner? Bridal shower? Or birthday party? Plenty of parking. Delicious food. Friendly staff. My day there...

Was very excited to try this course after reading great reviews. Was extremely disappointed in the fact I paid full price for 18 and the maintenance was incredibly rude. Was chipping/putting and they decided to talk extremely loud, not being considerate for golfers. Maintenance also had several, more than 5, fairways with full sprinklers on, and would not turn them off for golfers. We were only able to play a few holes on front 9 being able to utilize fairway, but as soon as we would finish a hole they would turn them off as they were staring at us having to use the rough to play several holes. Could not use range finder, would not go through sprinklers to get distance. Went into clubhouse after round, asked for food menu, said they couldn’t serve food because hood was cleaned in kitchen that morning?? I own a restaurant and I have never shut down operations over my hood being cleaned as it only takes an hour or two. Sounds like poor...

This is in my Top 5 courses in the state that I've played (I'm not counting pro level courses). This course is split up into vastly different 9 hole courses. The front is heavily wooded with old growth trees that almost force a carefully faded drive or, to be safe, a low-iron shot. The back is a more open links-style course that can demand some shot creativity. Natural water hazards created by the Rock River add a bit of extra flavor. Greens play faster than you'd think when it's dry. The course is beautifully maintained and the staff is always friendly.

Other things of note. The front nine floods easily after heavy rain due to the river....I can't knock the course on this because they don't control the weather. The driving range is across the parking lot facing away from the course. I like this because I hate courses where you'll have to find your own ball from the hundred or so range balls on some random fairway. This course is also...
