Course History
Origins
Designed by the late Dr. Gordon Emerson who designed numerous golf courses in Western WI, Clifton Hollow Golf Club opened as a 9 hole course in 1974 under then owner Lunny Kuschel. Over the next ten years, Lunny would add a back 9, a 9 hole Par III course, a supper club – and the icing on the cake – the area’s only mini golf course. The latter three have since closed but the 18 hole course was purchased by the Egeberg family in 1987 and to this day is still run under the guidance of brothers Chuck and Don Egeberg.
Thriving
Almost 50 years after the first tee shot, The Hollow Golf Club boasts some of the finest course conditions in the area, as well as a thriving membership that has made it a cornerstone course for members and daily fee golfers in Western Wisconsin and the Twin Cities Region of Minnesota.
Challenging
The course at Clifton Hollow is filled with both subtle and glaring challenges. Whether it’s the deceptively difficult 9th hole; a 472 yard (blue) par 4 that drops down into “The Hollow”, finishing on an undulating green protected by water on the front-left. Or the 18th hole “Monster of Clifton”; a 637 yard (blue), character-building, par 5 that has crushed the dreams of many good rounds. Challenges await you with every shot.
