Portage CC is on the east side of Portage on the north side of Swan Lake, about an hour north of Madison, 30 minutes from The Dells. Old style and traditional layout with tree lined fairways over rolling hills. It's a short layout at 6,356 yards from the tips, but is very challenging at a 70.4 course rating and a 127 slope. It helps to be able to work the ball here-a lot of the holes have slight doglegs. It also helps to have a good short game, the greens tend to be small and are mostly elevated, and guarded by bunkers. Good quality layout overall, well maintained, and reasonably priced greens fees for the Dells area.
