Whistling Straits Golf Course
Whistling Straits Golf Course, located in Haven, Wisconsin, is one of the most renowned golf courses in the United States. Designed by Pete Dye and opened in 1998, the course is part of Destination Kohler, a luxury golf and resort destination owned by the Kohler Company. Situated along the shores of Lake Michigan, Whistling Straits is known for its rugged, links-style design, deep bunkers, rolling terrain, and strong coastal winds, creating a challenging yet picturesque golfing experience.
The course is divided into two championship layouts: the Straits Course and the Irish Course. The Straits Course, the more famous of the two, mimics the traditional seaside links courses of Scotland and Ireland, with fescue grass, undulating fairways, and stunning lakefront views. The Irish Course, located inland, offers a slightly different experience with a mix of dunes, water hazards, and a more parkland-style feel while still maintaining the rugged essence of Whistling Straits.
