Jmikecpa Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Love the Wynn, love hitting that Buffet post round. I spent more nights at Wynn than I did at home last year so they take good care of me. Also helps that I am developing a casino across the street. My favorite Vegas restaurant is Sinatra in Encore but drinks and a small dinner at the Country Club is nice as well.

We ate most of our meals at the Kohler restaurants, and any of those will serve you a very good meal. We did have one off-campus meal at an Italian place on the river in downtown Sheboygan called Lino, I'd highly recommend it if you're going into the big city for dinner.

jbil8802 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 check out Caledonia and True Blue I'd like to on my next trip. I've heard really good things about both. I think this time we're playing Indian Wells, Pine Hills, the Witch, and International. In November we played Grande Dunes, TPC Myrtle, Long Bay, and King's North. Hopefully it's dried up a bit since November. The courses were soaked.

PlaidJacket Posted January 29, 2016 Author Share Posted January 29, 2016 Well, my Kohler trip isn't set like I said it was back on Jan.14th. After some initial discussion with the guys they all said... Kohler. I also offered some smaller less expensive trips which everyone turned down. Ok Fine. I jumped on it and quickly worked it up and presented everyone with a general plan and expense estimate. Golf, airfare, rent car, lodging, etc. etc. Well, funny how quite everyone has now become. Now it seems they can't decide for sure. Might have conflicting plans. LOL Or... maybe their wallet is stinging. Kohler ain't cheap. I'm ready just about anytime. Maybe we'll still go. I'd like to. I'd also be happy doing a smaller less expensive trip. Either way. I've told them to figure it out and let me know. We'll see....

I'm used to planning trips to places like Pinehurst and Myrtle Beach, where there are lots of places competing for your dollars. For Kohler, especially the Straits Course, if you want to play it, you stay with them, and you pay their price. You can save a little money by staying at the Inn on Woodlake, instead of the American Club, but its still a lot of money. I can honestly say that from the East Coast, you can arrange a trip to Scotland or Ireland for around the same price as a similar amount of time in Kohler. Even so, I'm glad I did it, at least the one time.

Even so, I'm glad I did it, at least the one time. Yes. It's expensive. I liken it to Bandon. I had already called and checked on playing the courses at Kohler and Erin. They said we could play all courses even if we don't stay there. Same price. I also found us a nice house to rent close by. That alone saves a bunch. Who knows, these guys might still decide to go and that's fine with me. We have plenty of time. I'm the guy that usually gets our trips set up, etc. I also suggested Palm Springs but didn't get much interest. Everyone I know that's been there liked PS.
