Description

Blackwolf Run's River Course in Kohler is a crown jewel of Midwestern golf, revered for its complexity and raw beauty. Another Pete Dye masterpiece, the course weaves along the Sheboygan River, with precision demanded on nearly every shot. Razor-sharp bunkers and dramatic elevation shifts define the round. Ranked among the best in the country, it's a pilgrimage site for serious golfers. Bring your A-game and maybe a few extra balls.

Blackwolf Run River Course is an absolute gem though this isn't breaking news. Even though I played in mid October, the course is still in perfect condition. It offers wide fairways and greens but still precise accuracy. The greens are fast and slick. Now I understand why pros want to be below the hole on putts because there is so much more control over putting. Between the River and Straits, I prefer the River. Overall, it was an amazing experience and would recommend.

Obviously when people think Kohler they think Straits, but honestly the River course is not to be missed. It’s a masterclass in routing not only from a course design perspective but also how Dye takes you through this gorgeous piece of property. A lot of really great holes here, some of which can go toe to toe with the great holes on Straits. Playing in the evening as the sun set was literal nirvana.

I golfed the Blackwolf Run BATHS course last Sunday with 3 siblings. The Scottish style course is beautiful complete with natural terrain and “pot bunkers”. Great food, drinks and helpful employees. The only thing ruining the experience were the outdoor speakers on the putting green and throughout the course playing alternative rock (Nirvana, Green Day, etc). I love music but not this genre on a golf course. It does not belong here! It was family day/night and not conducive to this environment. Such a shame to spoil what could be a unique golf experience.

Visited Blackwolf Run - River Course the first weekend of September 2025. We wanted to get out on Whistling Straits, but they did not have availability during our trip. So, we thought what the heck let's give Blackwolf Run a try. We were not disappointed. The staff in the clubhouse was attentive and welcomed us warmly. We had a tee time for later in the day, and were going to hang out until then. The staff said that we should try their Bath Course. It is a 10 hole course that was a great warm up to our round. They had music on each hole that was a nice addition, not too loud, just right. The course was immaculate! Perfect condition, the greens were fast but fair. A GREAT warm up. Then we went back into the clubhouse and the staff had a cancellation so we were able to get out on the River Course a bit earlier. We decided to get a four caddie to help navigate the course. We were paired with Bob Riley. He was wonderful. Great insight and helped me have one of the best rounds of my year! The experience was so great, that I am going to come back next year and play Black Wolf Run. After the round we had drinks and some food in the restaurant. The wait staff was just as attentive. Food was good. Thank YOU Black Wolf Run for a great golf experience, and another shout out to caddie Bob Riley for his skill and expertise in giving us a round to remember!
