Golf in Fort Atkinson

Fort Atkinson is a city in Jefferson County, set along the Rock River in south-central Wisconsin between Madison and the Milwaukee metro. Named for a frontier-era fort, the city grew around manufacturing and agriculture, and it is home to the publishing roots of a well-known farm magazine. The Rock River and nearby Lake Koshkonong shape the landscape, drawing anglers and boaters, while the Glacial River Trail follows an old rail line through the area. Fort Atkinson lies in the gently varied country between the capital and the lake district to the east. Golfers in the area find recreational courses set among the river-valley and farm country. With Madison to the west and the lakes of Jefferson County nearby, Fort Atkinson offers a base for golf in south-central Wisconsin, in the agricultural and river country bridging the Madison and Milwaukee regions.
