Timber Ridge Golf Club

Northwoods Wisconsin built its reputation on lake country golf, and Timber Ridge is the walking round that holds up that end of the bargain. Rolling terrain through 6,686 yards with enough elevation change to keep your legs honest but never gasping. Slope of 129 tells you the course has teeth without being punishing. Minocqua draws summer crowds who assume cart golf is the default. They're wrong here. The layout moves naturally from green to tee, and the pace stays quick when walkers set the rhythm. Pull your own bag. It's the obvious choice, not a statement.
