Blackwolf Run
Challenging And Rewarding Golf
Routed by Pete Dye throughout the Sheboygan River Valley, formed by glacial runoffs thousands of years ago, Blackwolf Run and its two tracks – the River and the Meadow Valleys – is sure to offer a challenging yet rewarding test for any golfer.
The resort offers some solid golf package options, including the Dye-Abolical which includes:
- Three nights at The American Club or Inn on Woodlake or Sandhill
- Four, 18-hole rounds of golf per person. One round on each of the following courses: The Straits and Irish at Whistling Straits, The River and Meadow Valleys at Blackwolf Run.
- A 30-minute golf lesson at Blackwolf Run, Whistling Straits or the Kohler Swing Studio with a Kohler Golf Academy instructor.
Fishing, Boating And Brews
If you love being outdoors, Kohler is the right place for you. Fancy yourself a fisherman? Plan on spending a few hours casting away in the Sheboygan River, which offers some of the best salmon and trout fishing around. Not into fishing? No problem. Grab a canoe or kayak and enjoy a couple of hours paddling downstream.
If you are more in the mood to chill and enjoy some great microbrews, take the short ride down WI-23 E and settle in for a visit to 3 Sheeps Brewing in Sheboygan. With nearly 20 beers on tap and an ever-changing selection that includes mainstays like First Kiss IPA, Rebel Kent Amber Ale, and Cashmere Hammer Micro Stout, there will be something to please everyone.
Destination Kohler is a truly unique location providing a world-class experience on and off the course. Playing the championship courses at Blackwolf Run is a must.
