flickr-danperry.comMilwaukee County Parks is offering a unique golf package for 2010.  Starting at $999 (or less if you’re 60 or older or disabled), you can play unlimited golf at Milwaukee County Parks golf courses next year.  It is like having a country club membership (kind of), but being able to play at 14 or 15 different courses. 

The packages offered are as follows:

Hole in One ($1,499) - Unlimited play at any of the 15 courses including Brown Deer.  Also included are 12 “Bring a Friend for $50″ vouchers. Bring a friend, and he or she plays for only $50. Vouchers are good any time of day in 2010.

Eagle ($999) – Unlimited play at any of the 14 Gold, Silver, Bronze, and Oak courses (does not include Brown Deer).

As an added bonus, if you purchase your Membership early you will receive 10 FREE Bonus Rounds good for the Membership owner in 2009. Hole in One Members receive 3 Brown Deer Passes, 4 Gold Passes, and 3 Silver Passes. Eagle Members receive 4 Gold Passes, 4 Silver Passes, and 2 Bronze Passes.  Passes are redeemable Monday-Friday any time and weekends after noon.

A 5% discount is available on either package for people ages 60 and over, or disabled individuals.  The packages do not include cart.  To take advantage of this offer, you must have a Milwaukee County Parks Golf Discount Card valid through 2010.  Full details are available on the Milwaukee County Parks website

  4. I’m not sure how much it costs to join a country club and then to pay annual fees, but I suppose this might be a great deal for people who are currently members of a country club but are looking to reduce their expenses. I suppose there are a lot of trade offs golfing on the Milwaukee courses versus a country club. On one hand you would get a lot more variety (even though you’d probably play Brown Deer the most) but the social benefits would be limited on the County courses.

    To try to make a comparison, I went to the Blue Mound country club website to see how much it cost to join. No information was available. This is what they said on their website:

    Blue Mound Golf and Country Club is a private club, where “friends invite friends” to join. Membership is by invitation only. Both full golf and social memberships are available, as well as intermediate memberships. Candidates must be sponsored by current members and meet the requirements as established by the Board of Directors. Please contact a current Blue Mound Golf and Country Club member for further information pertaining to membership and availability.

  6. $1,500 does seem like a lot, but it can be a good value if you are a regular golfer. The real value is that you get to play at all 15 Milwaukee County courses with this deal. With a typical golf club membership, you are tied to playing the same course over and over again.

    We did a comparison with some of the other golf courses in the area that offer season long memberships, and found the Milwaukee County offer to be in line with the prices they charge:

    • Muskego Lakes Country Club, Muskego – $1,050. Unlimited golf, no cart.
    • The Bog, Saukville – $2,080. Unlimited golf, no cart.
    • Morningstar Golfers Club, Waukesha – $2,100. Unlimited golf, cart included.
    • The Bull, Sheboygan Falls – $3,500. Unlimited golf, cart included.
