Kohler Company plans to add a 14-hole golf course to its Blackwolf Run golf course complex in the village of Kohler in Sheboygan County.

BizTimes Milwaukee reported, the company plans to begin construction this fall with a fall 2027 targeted opening date. The name of the course and its designer will be announced “soon,” the company said.

Blackwolf Run opened in 1988 and consists of two 18-hole golf courses, the River Course and the Meadow Valleys Course, and a 10-hole par 3 course called The Baths, which opened in 2021 and also features a two-acre putting course. The River Course and Meadow Valleys Course have both been ranked among the best public golf courses in the country. In addition, Blackwolf Run was the host of the U.S. Women’s Open in 1998 and 2012.

The new 14-hole golf course would be built on a 47-acre site owned by Kohler Co. and located directly west of the Meadow Valleys Course. It will be a walking-only, multi-loop golf course (which allows the same holes to be played in two or more different directions or routings), with par 3, par 4 and par 5 holes.
