The short course is usually a lot of fun to play, but our experience was completely ruined by the starter who is an old grumpy dude who treated us with a rude, snappy and unwelcoming attitude when we would ask him a question (likely just because we’re teenagers). I was playing with my 14-year-old sister, who’s just getting into golf, and even she was surprised and disappointed by how he spoke to us. I had told her this was a one in a kind experience and that most courses treat players with much more respect. We both left feeling frustrated and embarrassed. I won’t be returning unless someone else is running the first tee.

Peninsula State Park Golf Course is beautiful, well-kept, and offers stunning views of the water and park. The staff were very friendly, and the whole experience felt fun and relaxing. Even as a beginner, I really enjoyed it—such a great Door County activity.

This course is at the top of my list! Challenging but open enough for below avg golfers like myself to enjoy it! The staff was so accommodating with our group. The staff was helpful and friendly from the booking to the starter…top notch experience.

By far my favorite golf course in Door County. We golfed first week of September and the course was in immaculate condition. Greens were fast, fairways were narrow, and the views were top notch. Definitely bring a jacket because the wind off the lake can make it feel 10 degrees colder. Staff were so nice and friendly, even recommended we take the back 9 for better views if we only had time to play 9. Ended up coming back the next day for a full 18 we enjoyed it so much. If you walk, be ready for a workout. Lots of hills but so much more fun to walk and enjoy the whole course.

Stunningly beautiful and well maintained. Best course on the peninsula that I’ve played. Clearly, many others have had negative experiences with some of the staff, which is certainly a shame. This is not your course if you don’t want to play more traditional etiquette and rule focused golf. I often like to play a relaxed course with relaxed rules! But this is not that kind of course; it’s also really fun to play a serious course with staff that take it seriously themselves!
