“Great course that has continued to slowly make improvements over the years to create a course that matches the Langford heritage. Far better than many clubs that are better known -- get here if you can!"

“West Bend Country Club's front 9 was designed by Langford & Moreau and the club has spent the last few years renovating the back 9, which was designed about 30 years later by a different architect, to better blend it in with the original 9 holes. The course utilizes natural landscapes to create hazards and challenges for golfers to navigate during their round. Local knowledge goes far on this course as getting in the wrong location off the tee can create blind approach shots and being on the wrong side of greens can lead to nearly impossible up and downs. Despite local knowledge playing a role on this course the challenge to golfers is very fair. The course has a nice mix of length on the par 3's, 4's and 5's, plenty of uphill and downhill shots and the green complexes have a good variety of slopes, angles and approaches into them. The 7th hole is a short but memorable par 4 that will give you a sense of accomplishment if you make par or better. Those with access to this private club will find it an enjoyable golden age course to play and there are 6 sets of tees ranging from 4,814 - 6,887 yards on this par 72/73 course."

“Front 9 is full of character with some classic "old school" push-up greens. The green on the par 5 3rd is one of the more interesting and fun I've ever seen. A four-to-five-foot ridge cuts the back off from the front. Would love to play again now knowing what it is like. Back 9 is undergoing transformation to make it blend better with older front 9. Course meanders up and down ridges and valleys from 7 to 18."
