They made sure our special day went smooth, they coordinated with the vendors and were there if anything went wrong. Aside from the wonderful coordinators at The Oaks, the venue itself is great! The tent is spacious enough yet still feels cozy and has a great relaxed atmosphere. Bathrooms are located inside the clubhouse, but not too far of a walk from the venue space. I would 100% recommend The Oaks as a place to have your wedding.

Attended a party in the club house. Very nice accommodations, great service clean facilities…read more Drinks were good, great Octoberfest on tap. The food decent beef on a stick was really chewy, chicken teriyaki was okay, the spicy rub wings were really good. Good cheese & crackers fresh & tasty, stuffed mushrooms were good but over stuffed with massive chunk of sausage. Overall a good place to go! Great view from the back deck too!

Sorry for the three stars, guys... this is a combination of the course itself and how I golf…read morethere. The course is relatively flat, which makes it great for walking - except for the distance between some holes. Even while carting it can feel like a long haul from one green to the next tee box. I'm not sure if that could be rearranged or if they're just stuck with that layout. Either way, I tend to cart there. There is plenty of water on this course, and always where my ball wants to go! This is a very challenging course if you're not the straightest hitter. Most of the holes require some sort of control, so if your driver is erratic, you might want to put it in time-out and tee off with an iron. I've always found the greens and fairways in very good shape - the greens can run fast, so be prepared - try to stay below the hole if you have that kind of control. For some reason, it always seems to be windy when I'm golfing here. Perhaps that is because the course is so flat and in an open part of the county. Of course, the wind *always* wants to blow my shots into the water! LOL I've scored okay here, but generally feel like I'm struggling through the round. A lot of thought goes into which club you will hit. If the yardage says "7-iron", the wind might require you to hit a 6-iron so you don't fall short into water. This course really makes you think. The Meadows is a good test - if you feel like you're hitting well, come here to see if you really are. You won't find a lot of woods getting in your way, but the water makes up for that... I love the location in Waunakee - very convenient for many parts of the Madison area. I'd like to see them run some more deals. For the money, I'd rather play elsewhere, but I ccould be lured in with a nice weekday deal.

The steaks were cooked to perfection during my visits. I heard chicken was a bit dry. Veggies were delicious. Desserts were delicious and rich. The decor for one event was beautiful and extravagant, the other elegant. I've had access to a few rooms, a beautiful elevated outdoor terrace, and the classy but also sassy bar. When the weather is cool they place heaters on the outdoor patio. This is where my friends and I gathered for coffee as the celebration was winding down. The flooring was a bit outdated and both carpeted and non-carpeted areas. A bit musty smelling. The restrooms did not seem to have ventilation, leaving foul stagnant scents. The finishing touch we asked our server at the end of our meal for coffee, subsequently (45 minutes later) and requesting two additional servers bring coffee, we received it. The time spent with friends is enjoyable, my food was enjoyable. The bar staff allows for an entertaining time. If they place fans in the restrooms, and replace the musty carpeting or wallpaper it'll be great. Not holding the 45 minute coffee wait against anyone.

The vibe is trendy and fresh. It was busy when we first arrived, so we waited a little to use the bays, but we just ponied up to the bar and enjoyed a beverage while catching up with old friends. Once our bay opened up, we headed over and started warming up. The bartenders were very friendly, and they checked on us often. We hadn't had dinner, so we ordered the giant pretzel and the ultimate nachos. Both were delicious! The pretzel was very good - it came with beer cheese and mustard that had a slight cinnamon taste to it that made it really tasty. We enjoyed a few moscow mules with our appetizers. Long green couches line the ends of the hitting bays, as well as a coffee table and some high top tables and chairs. There is plenty of room for your party, and the only complaint I have is that it would be nice if there were bag stands - I felt like all of our golf bags were in the way a bit. Otherwise it's very spacious and open! When you step up to hit the ball, there are easy to use buttons that mechanically put the ball on the tee for you. You can then knock it down if you want to hit off the mat and/or putt. I like that there are also buttons if you want to move the tee up and down, and you can use the computer screen to aim when putting to take into account any break. It really is simple to use and very fun! Next time I will probably check out the Middleton location instead, as it's closer to me, but overall this is in a great area and I highly recommend it!

Tucked away in Waunakee on Mr. Sil Maly's land…read more(https://wcblind.org/2021/04/waunakee-golf-course-gives-back/), this 9 hole, $3 suggested donation course is great for beginners (i.e. people like me) who are looking to establish consistency with their irons. The course layout can be a bit confusing so take a picture of the map when you arrive, drop your donation, and get to work. With a range of yardage from 130 to 200, you get a good variety of different distances with plenty of hazards in the form of pine trees and one pond (no bunkers) The greens are a bit rough so not a place to really practice your putting, but again, it's maintained by one guy, Mr. Maly, so keep your expectations in check.
