The Brute at Grand Geneva Resort & Spa is a premier 18-hole, par-72 golf course located in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, widely regarded as one of the most challenging and scenic courses in the Midwest. Designed by renowned architect Robert Bruce Harris, the course stretches over 7,000 yards and offers a demanding layout with long, tight fairways, strategically placed bunkers, and expansive, rolling greens that test accuracy and skill. Its hilly, tree-lined terrain, combined with sculpted sand traps and water hazards, creates a course that is both visually striking and technically challenging.
Signature holes include the 16th par-3, where shots off the green funnel into deep sand, the 17th with a Cape-style tee shot over the property’s central lake, and the 18th, which requires a precise drive through trees and bunkers to finish the round. Golfers of all levels can enjoy the variety of challenges presented by tight fairways, elevated tees, and crowned greens, making each round a unique experience.
The Brute also offers comprehensive practice facilities, including a driving range, chipping and pitching areas, and a putting green. The resort’s golf shop is nationally recognized among the top 100 resort golf shops, providing a wide selection of golf apparel, equipment, and accessories. Additional amenities include professional golf instruction, club fitting, and tournament hosting for groups and events.
Combining championship-level golfing with the scenic beauty of Lake Geneva, The Brute provides an exceptional experience for avid golfers, beginners, and resort guests alike. Its challenging design, meticulous maintenance, and top-notch facilities make it a must-visit destination for anyone seeking a memorable golf outing in Wisconsin.
