Golf in River Hills

River Hills is an affluent village in Milwaukee County, set on the Milwaukee River bluffs north of the city. One of the most exclusive communities in the metro, the village is known for its large wooded estates and its secluded, parkland character despite its proximity to downtown Milwaukee. River Hills is home to the Milwaukee Country Club, one of the most prestigious private clubs in the state, set along the river corridor. The village sits in the affluent North Shore country, in a landscape of mature woods and the Milwaukee River that winds through it. Golfers in the area find private and club courses, with the extensive Milwaukee County park system nearby. With downtown Milwaukee to the south and the North Shore suburbs surrounding it, River Hills offers a base for golf in the affluent northern reaches of the Milwaukee metro, where the wooded river bluffs and the country-club tradition define the village.
