Wilderness Club

Not a 5 star resort or golf course and do not believe the pictures. This is what the lake actually looks like. The golf course was fantastic a few years ago but now there is no sand in the bunkers, what little is in them is not raked. Your ball will bounce on the greens while you are trying to putt. Every flag is white and nothing tells you where on the green the flag is. So if you play here play the bunkers like ground under repair, because that is what they are and once on the green count a 2 putt and move onto the next hole. 5 star price but 1 star everything else including the staff from the pro on down.

We had a group of 16 golfers come up for a 2 day golf trip. The accommodations were nice. The grill was closed so there was no food or drink available. What kind of BS is that? After everyone checked in we were told to tee off on #10. Thought it was kind of weird the the supposed #1 golf course would do that for a group like ours, seeing there were hardly any other golfers. When hitting approach shots on 10, we found out why. They had just punched and sanded the greens. I guess the pro shop didn’t think it was important to notify 17 guys when they checked in. Total BS. Not only were they just sanded, but they weren’t even broomed yet. There were piles of sand on the green. Every approach shot hitting the green flew up a puff of sand. Putting was impossible. The course should have been declared unplayable. We left the next morning after we had to drive 10miles to the nearest restaurant for dinner. I wouldn’t have played that course again if it was free. You go to a resort to enjoy, not put up with all the shortcomings. #1 in Montana? Ray Charles must be doing the ratings.

What a great stay for our 8 golfers. The staff at check-in made us feel welcome. It was a great experience from check-in, the accommodations, to golf, and dinner (2 nights). Dinners were exceptional. Our server, Ella was the BEST!. Will be looking forward to our next trip here!....and....The golf course was in super-great shape!...Love this place!

The Golf Course is fantastic — pace of play was less than 4 hrs and it is in great shape. The food at the Wilderness Grill is wonderful in a relaxing atmosphere. Our room was comfortable and well appointed. The views around the entire property are gorgeous. We also enjoyed the beach!

What a difference a year makes. Last year wasn’t enjoyable. This year, the restaurant was open and the chef knows his way around the kitchen. The golf course is in fantastic shape and a great challenge. This is definitely a family friendly, laid back place. If you’re looking for excitement, don’t come but if you want relaxation and great golf, it’s worth the trip. The wilderness suites were adequate…clean, nice bathroom, don’t expect the Four Seasons but more than adequate. We’ll be back.

The golf was too notch, and the fairways and greens were well manicured! Loved the course and the challenges it created! The only thing that suffered was the service at the restaurant in the resort. The food was great, but I was disappointed about the service from the wait staff. Tried to make dinner reservations and was told they were booked solid for dinner, and the only time was 430pm. We get there at 430 and no other customers were there, and at 530 there were 3 other people in the restaurant. Why would they lie to me? We hung around the area until about 630 and the restaurant was never even close to being full? I don't get it.

It was very comfortable place . Everyone who we contacted are so welcoming. It was very nice to stay .

We spent 3 wonderful nights in the Cottonwood cabin overlooking the 18th hole with some amazing views. The Wilderness Club did a great job of considering the details to ensure an enjoyable stay with cut firewood, a comfortable personal hot tub, and a clean and comfortable cabin. The only request for going forward is that the cabin indicates it sleeps up to 6 people, but the kitchen is only equipped for up to 4 people. One note is the website indicates the cabin has laundry as it is considered a Luxury Cottage, but it is not in the cabin. We were able to use laundry machines in another part of the resort for free. All the other amenities (golf, kids club, pool, snack shack, sports court) were enjoyable.

Ok so I admit that the first time I went to Wilderness Club about a year ago I had mixed feelings... the setting was gorgeous but the staff was not very helpful. That was during COVID. Roll forward a year, and boy what a change! I have now been there twice in two months and even bought a piece of land to develop there, that's how much I love it. Here is what I encountered... The first time, I stayed at the main lodge. Accommodations were ok. Two queen beds per room with a bathroom. Four bedrooms per side of the lodge (two sides total) with a nice communal area in the middle that has a gorgeous fireplace, living room and dining table. I had to ask for my room to get cleaned which during COVID was a pain and they didn't seem to have enough staff to accommodate. Things have really turned around. The last two times I have stayed in cottages instead-- I highly suggest going this route! The bedrooms are just as roomy as the rooms in the lodge but they are full cottages with private kitchens and living rooms and gorgeous private decks that have dining table, BBQ, and jacuzzi. The beds are comfortable, the bathrooms are well stocked. The kitchens have everything I've needed to cook (minus food-- but the store is just a few minutes of driving away). Most importantly, you go there for the setting. It's special. The wilderness club is set in the middle of mountains, so much sky, lakes, nature-- there are deer and wild turkeys walking around. The setting itself is peaceful, quiet, restocking. The people there are friendly-- everyone waves as you walk by. The staff is attentive and bends over backwards. If you get to chat with the owners, you will see that they are passionate about what they are building-- a luxury resort in the middle of one of the most stunning natural areas ever. And they respect the land, the people, the setting. During the summer, there are tons of activities for families. When we were there last week, there was live music at the Club during dinner. And on Fridays they set up for movies in the meadow where they roast marshmallow and show family friendly flicks. Nearby is the town of Eureka-- which has a charming little downtown with old fashioned looking stores. There's a couple of stores that sell local produce and meats. I loved it so much I decided to buy a plot of land there. I want my kids to go back for years, to experience what it's like to disconnect each summer, to make friends and run around in the grass and fields. You will spend your days taking in the beauty, talking walks, leaving electronics behind. This is a place you come to restock your soul.
