The itinerary

What you'll play and when

A captain wrote this. Every tee time has a reason. Here's the first part.

Day 1

Blackwolf Run (Meadow Valleys Course)

Tee time: 3:00 PM

Most accessible of the four courses gives you a warm-up round after noon arrival from MKE without the pressure of Straits or River.

Day 2

Whistling Straits (Straits Course)

Tee time: 8:00 AM

Book the Straits first and build your trip around it — morning start beats Lake Michigan wind and afternoon fatigue on a walking-only course.

What's inside the kit

The rest of the trip

Five sections. Everything a captain needs to run this trip — not just dream about it.

  • Where you'll stay and why

    The lodging pick, the rate, the reason it beats the alternatives.

  • What it really costs (line by line)

    The actual number per person. Not a vague range.

  • Who to call and what to ask

    Phone numbers, emails, the exact booking script.

  • What to do when you're not on the course

    The best meal of the trip. The post-round bar. The sneaky par-3.

  • From the captain

    Why this trip, what to expect, the things that make the difference.
