Located at 9548 East Golf Course Road, Poplar, Wisconsin, our team is focused on providing unique customer experiences through golf events, weddings, receptions, graduations, corporate events and much more! Poplar Golf Course is an 18 hole "short course" which offers a challenge for even the most experienced golfer. With the Middle River running through it, the course offers water challenges, sand traps and diverse greens to create a need for accuracy and that "magic touch".
Poplar Golf Course (PGC) is not your typical 18 hole golf course. PGC provides a golfing venue that both satisfies and challenges golfers from every skill level/background. Despite that, PGC is known as a “short course” (4200 yards/Par 64 men and Par 66/women)…..par is not “easy”. Touch and accuracy are the two attributes that improve most players’ scores at PGC. There are several par 5s and par 4s mixed in with lots of par 3s throughout the course. Every time a golfer, despite their skill level and experience, steps onto a tee box at PGC…par seems within reach.
In addition to the golf experience at PGC, most of our regular patrons and new customers describe our setting as almost “park like”. The Middle River borders on 6 holes at PGC. The undulating wooded terrain provides many elevation changes that increase both the beauty and challenge of the course.
PGC is fortunate to be located just outside the Lake Superior “Lake Effect Zone”. It is uncanny how many times in the spring and early summer that the weather is “drastically” better at PGC than it is in the Twin Ports of Duluth/Superior. It is no exaggeration when we say the weather may be as much as 20 to 30 degrees warmer with sunny skies …. and in the Twin Ports it is foggy and misty with a lake wind.
PGC has developed a reputation as a “fun place” to visit. We treat our patrons as friends and listen to what they have to say. We continue to be amazed and humbled by the mix of people we attract … where they come from …. and how often they come back.
