The name is now simply Wildwood golf course. 2 holes run next to the zoo next door. The course is a maximum of 5400 yards from the back tees making it playable for seniors or beginners. The quirky layout is basically flat without any memorable holes, but it is in very good shape. Lots of mature trees typical of northern Wisconsin.
Many of the players were vacationing in the area known mainly for its lakes and fishing. Despite a modest clubhouse the friendly staff make this a place I would go back to when i'm in the area.
Would travel: 0-10 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again

Unfortunately, The course is now closed. Weeds have taken over the course. Sadly, Wildwood is no more.
