Our Course

Apostle Highlands Golf Course is a par 72, 18-hole championship golf course in Bayfield, Wisconsin with enormous greens and stunning panoramic views of Lake Superior. Our public golf course features 3 sets of tees which makes our course playable for all players.

You don't have to be a big hitter to score well, but being straight off the tee will be important in keeping the ball in play. Many of the holes are tree-lined with trouble behind most of the greens if your approach shot is long.
The length of the course is 6,332 yards from the back tees, 5,887 from the middle tees, and 5,127 from the forward tee boxes. Water comes into play on 8 holes. Both the fairways and greens are heavily contoured, which results in some uphill and side hill lies in the fairway.
​

Lake Superior can be seen on 13 holes of this magnificent course. The full-service clubhouse is climate controlled and lets you enjoy views of the big Lake or, if the temperature is right, you can enjoy the scenic views from the clubhouse deck or out on our patio overlooking the 9th green.

Uphill tee shot to a sloped, tiered green that runs back to front. Keep the wind in mind, take an extra club and watch the downhill putts.

Championship 383
Medal 366
Match 340

Championship 138
Medal 112
Match 99

Hole 12 Par 5

Picture
An elevated tee makes this a reachable par 5. But with a double dog-leg and hazards left and right, you may find yourself ready for the next hole.


Championship 522
Medal 504
Match 467

Hole 13 Par 4

Picture
This is the toughest hole on the back-nine. If you can manage to stay out of the fescue you can obtain a rare par.


Championship 360
Medal 317
Match 292

Hole 14 Par 4

Take more club off the tee to guarantee a level lie. The wind typically moves the ball left to right as well as the slope. The green is surrounded by a hazard, so be accurate.

Medal 298
Match 281

Hole 15 Par 4

Picture
Although, this hole is entirely uphill, it is your best opportunity to hit the fairway and make a good score. Your approach will be important. The green is small and two-tiered.

Championship 327
Medal 312

One of the most underrated tee shots. Play short to avoid a poor bounce. If you bite off too much, you may find the water or the trees.
