Monroe Golf Club

Originally built in 1923 and recently opened to the public, Monroe Golf Club in Monroe, Wisconsin, has long been a fixture of southern Green County golf. The 18-hole, par-70 layout unfolds across 6,243 yards of rolling terrain and tree-lined fairways, offering a well-balanced challenge for golfers of all skill levels. Its standout features include a series of beautifully designed water hazards and fast, undulated greens that have earned a regional reputation for their quality and consistency.

Monroe Golf Club’s bunkering has also received recent praise thanks to a major renovation by Landscapes Unlimited, the same firm behind championship venues like Erin Hills. The project rebuilt 30 bunkers, eliminated two, and added four new ones—all using modern drainage, tiling, and sod-lined shaping that ensures playability even after heavy rain. The work completed in just five weeks gave the course a renewed level of polish while preserving its classic feel.

Originally a nine-hole course, Monroe expanded to a full 18 holes roughly 50 years after its founding. Today, it maintains a slope of 126 and a course rating of 70.2, rewarding smart play and precision off the tee. The clubhouse amenities include a fully stocked pro shop, event facilities for up to 200 guests, and The Fat Badger Pub & Grill, where favorites like the Good Good Smashburger and New Glaris Spotted Cow beers are waiting for a perfect ending to the day.

Whether you’re visiting for a casual round or exploring potential membership options, Monroe Golf Club remains a great-value destination with the feel of a private club and the accessibility of a public course.
