The Bog
About The Bog
The Bog is a public 18-hole championship course in Saukville, Wisconsin, opened in 1995 as an Arnold Palmer Signature Design. The par-72 layout stretches from 5,110 to 7,221 yards across five sets of tees, accommodating a wide range of playing abilities.
The course winds through 297 acres of woods, wetlands, rolling hills and wildlife habitat shaped by the natural Cedarburg Bog. Sand is a constant factor, with 118 bunkers in play, while the bentgrass greens were built to USGA specifications.
