Best Golf Courses Near Racine, WI

Racine, Wisconsin is just 22 miles from Milwaukee and all of its major city attractions, but this revitalized city located at the mouth of the Root River on the shores of Lake Michigan has more than enough attractions of its own. Leading the way among Racine’s three municipal courses is Herbert F. Johnson Park Golf Club, a Golf Advisor top-25 course in Wisconsin and a top U.S. value course. The other two are both 9-hole layouts that opened in 1920. Whereas Washington Park attracts plenty of beginner players to its location in the center of town, Shoop Park rambles idyllically by the shores of Lake Michigan. In Sturtevant, you may be able to find a discounted tee time at Ives Grove Golf Links, a links-style course with 110 bunkers and tall-grass native areas spread throughout its three nines. In Kenosha, the scenic Petrifying Springs Golf Course is the star of its muni system, but the 9-hole Washington Park Municipal Golf Course is also well maintained and fun to play. Back in Racine after your round, don’t leave town until you’ve had a Kringle, the favorite Danish pastry in this city that famously is home to the largest Danish population anywhere in the U.S.
