TESTIMONIALS
“I’ve organized golf trips with the same crew of guys for 20 years and we’ve never had a better experience than the trip organized by Jason Kauflin and Wisconsin Golf Trips. This venture was a post-COVID, ‘has-to-be-great’ trip and he delivered in spades. From the early planning (getting tee times and rooms at all three resorts – Erin, Sand Valley, and Kohler), to the tweaks as we got closer (arranging transportation, setting up a variety of meal types), to the hospitality during the trip (Jason and a friend picked up most of us at the airport and played a round with us at his great home course, THEN drove us to Erin), every phase of the trip was flawless and handled as thought they were his friends, not mine. Even one luggage snafu out of his control was dealt with quickly and professionally. I’m not sure where our next trip will be, but I hope Jason sets up a new subsidiary there in time to help run the next one.”
“I strongly recommend the custom service provided by Jason and Wisconsin Golf Trips. My group had to postpone a Scotland trip for the second time due to the pandemic. In less than two weeks, Jason somehow managed to find a replacement package combining Erin Hills, Sand Valley and the Kohler courses. His lodging recommendations were exactly what we needed at each leg of the trip – some on property, some just off campus. His biggest challenge may have been navigating the arrival and departure schedules for 7 golfers – only 3 of which played the full week. All pick-ups went smoothly. Jason’s digital technology was a real differentiator – everyone downloaded the app to their phone and had all the trip details at their fingertips: hotel addresses, tee times, caddy tip recommendations, etc. Jason even joined us for a Brewers night game against the Braves.
“On behalf of the 12 members of our golf outing I would like to thank you for your hard work. Everything went as planned with no surprises. The golf courses were great, the accommodations spectacular, and the great weather you arranged capped it all off. Of special note- The staff at Sand Valley were the friendliest group I have ever seen at a golf course anywhere. They really seemed to be happy we were there. The Sandbox par three course was a lot of fun and just perfect for a late afternoon activity. We actually had two holes in one in our group. Whistling Straights was spectacular as always and Erin Hills is a beautiful Beast. The accommodations at Erin Hills were the best I have ever stayed in. All of the group commented on them. Thanks again for everything.”
“Jason: Tim and I had a great time visiting three spectacular Wisconsin golf venues. Erin Hills, Mammoth Dunes, The River Course at Blackwolf Run and the Whistling Straits courses exceeded all expectations. The Irish Course at Whistling Straits. We got a real kick out of playing the Erin Hills Drumlin putting course multiple times and we enjoyed the opportunity to play Erin Hills as a foursome with you and Scott. Your background knowledge of the course and its US Open history were much appreciated. Thanks for your efforts on our behalf, especially in light of the fact that we were forced to delay our trip a year for personal (and pandemic) reasons. Your Wisconsin Golf Trips group didn’t miss a beat rearranging the entire trip. Thanks again.”
“Our group had scheduled a July 2021 golf trip to Ireland. Due to Covid pandemic I was getting concerned that we would not be able to travel to Europe and wanted to have another plan. One call to Jason and he put together the perfect itinerary; Erin Hills, Sand Valley, Blackwolf Run and Whistling Straits. All of our accommodations and tee times were set, all we had to do was show up. Communication with Jason was great leading up to the trip and he was available during our trip if we needed anything. I would highly recommend using Wisconsin Golf Trips if you are traveling to Wisconsin for golf. Jason has great knowledge of the golf scene in Wisconsin, from the big name resorts to local munis that are worth playing as well as restaurants and hotels. Thanks!”
“My brothers and I decided to surprise our father to celebrate his retirement with a golf trip to Wisconsin. As soon as started our investigating, we stumbled onto Jason and Wisconsin Golf Trips via google, and we could not have been more pleased with that decision. First of all, Wisconsin is a top-notch spot for a buddy’s golf trip, and I would put it up against any golf trip itinerary in the states. Erin Hills, Sand Valley, and Kohler are all within a couple hours from each other, and visiting each location is a must. As for scheduling this trip, I highly recommend Jason. He is an enthusiastic, golf-sicko and I mean that as the highest compliment. He takes immense pride in planning the best trip possible and he skips no details. You will be very pleased with Jason’s communication and detailed itinerary when the trip is booked. Once onsite, Jason checked in frequently, and even met up with us and treated us to breakfast. Completely not necessary, but very appreciated! Jason, and Wisconsin Golf Trips gets 5 stars from the Weaver family. Thank you for making this trip so special for our family!”
“A group of 30-somethings (high school friends, college friends, new friends) took an epic golf trip to Wisconsin and used Jason’s help and expertise to plan everything. Flew in to play Erin Hills, Sand Valley, Mammoth Dunes and The Sandbox, Whistling Straits Irish and Straits, and Blackwolf Run River and the Baths. Our jam-packed itinerary went incredibly smooth. All eight of us agreed this was by far the best golf trip we’ve ever taken and one of the best, if not the best, guys trip (bachelor parties, Vegas, etc), that we’ve been on. Highlight of the trip: After walking 90 holes in the first three days (including The Straits in the morning) we ditched our shoes, grabbed a cart and forecaddie, and played 18 holes barefoot at the Irish Course in the afternoon. We got to the 13th tee, a 135-yard par 3 with a punchbowl green…. My first ever hole in one. And to get it with 7 of my best friends on a trip of a lifetime, at one of the top courses in the world with perfect weather, I’ll never forget it. Afterwards, we went to the bar with the caddies and celebrated properly all night. What a day.”
Having heard great things about the golf in Wisconsin, but not familiar with the area, I was fortunate to find Wisconsin Golf Trips. From my first interaction with Jason, I could tell we were in great hands. Together we came up with the itinerary – Erin Hills, Sand Valley and Whistling Straits, and from there he took care of every detail of golf, accommodations, caddies, dinner reservations, etc. From the moment we arrived in Wisconsin through our flight back to DC, Jason and his team had every detail covered. Thanks again Jason, we’ll be back!”
“Working with Jason for a group of 16 golfers to Erin Hills, Whistling Straits and Blackwolf Run was incredibly easy. The golf courses and amenities were incredible. Besides the golf he arranged transportation to/from the airport, shuttles between the courses and shuttles to/from dinner. He also arranged dinner and the food was fantastic. Lastly, he provided an app that had the itinerary and tee times and the app was very useful. Our group had a great time and this has been one of our best trips ever.”
“Jason – Want to thank you again for the great job you did putting together our group’s (3 couples) trip throughout Wisconsin and Michigan. Your guidance on what courses to play, and in want order, as well as obtaining hotel reservations, tee times and dinner reservations made the trip a breeze. I still get compliments from the group on what a good job I did. Lilltle do they know it was all you! We’ll be back for sure when the Lido Course opens at Sand Valley and you will be hearing from me for another great trip.”
“I stumbled across Jason’s website while conducting research on our recent Kohler trip and I’m very glad that I did. I was in charge of planning our annual golf trip for up to 16 golfers; a momentous task; and Jason took all the stress out of the planning, especially the logistics of arranging 36 holes per day at multiple different locations at the best price, including meals and transport. Not only was Jason great at organizing the golf, he was also a fount of information about the various packages offered at Kohler, dining options, after-hours activities, the best places to stay, and the best local courses that don’t make the cut across the various publications provided annually. Jason is professional, friendly and detail-oriented; he provided regular updates on the ever-evolving itinerary and even took the time to come out and play a few holes with the group and take pictures. We had a truly fantastic time playing Whistling Straits, Black Wolf Run and Erin Hills in addition to the other great local courses Jason was familiar with and I highly recommend Jason for your trip. We will definitely look him up next time we make our way up north.”
“Jason and Wisconsin Golf Trips beyond exceeded our groups expectations. For a group of 9 guys who kept changing itineraries and wanted to play every top course, Jason was there every step of the way with incredible recommendations and suggestions throughout the process. Months before the trip, Jason spent hours with me on the phone coordinating and explaining every detail about what to expect. Jason made everything completely stress free, stayed in constant communication and expertly allocated payments between all. When we arrived at each course, we were treated as if we were ‘members’ based on Jason’s fantastic reputation. From our tee times to lodging, restaurants, caddies and everything in between, Jason was absolutely spot on. To put the icing on the cake, a group of us decided to end the trip with a Packers game at Lambeau. When I told Jason about this, he was able to set us up with an amazing tailgate before the game. If you are going to Wisconsin and want to work with the best, Jason is your guy. Our group had an unforgettable trip that we will never forget and I cannot thank Jason enough!”
“Jason, Thank you for all your hard work and assistance setting up a truly amazing golf trip for us! We absolutely enjoyed all the courses played and picking a favorite would be very difficult. Right now Whistling Straits and Erin Hill are the top runners. Thank you for the golf package and we will recommending your service to anyone who might be looking for an outstanding trip to Wisconsin.”
“First of all, it was great to meet you and your daughter Rachel. Enjoy your time together as it will fly by! Overall, the outing was a huge success! The weather was awesome and all of the guys loved it. The App was a great help in giving everyone all of the info they needed and reducing the questions to the Commish. Again, thanx for all of your organizing. Hope to be a return customer!”
“Jason helped us plan a terrific golf trip for 8 guys at Erin Hills and the Kohler courses. He’s a great ambassador for Wisconsin golf and he is thoroughly knowledgeable about the courses, accommodations, and dining options. No detail is too small. He was totally focused on making sure our group had a memorable and hassle free experience. He succeeded.”
“All details managed with precision to allow the golfers to focus on the golf and not the little things that can turn into big problems. Excellent service and looking forward to next year. Beautiful venues and genuine warm friendly people make Wisconsin the place to go.”
“Our trip was absolutely perfect. Jason set up a great itinerary with great attention to detail. I hope he branches out from Wisconsin as we would like to work with him on an international golf trip next year or at some point in the future.”
“Jason: I cannot thank you enough for your fine leadership, enthusiasm and organizational skills in setting up my first golf outing for 8 guys. Yes, I had the idea, but no clue as to how to efficiently implement the idea! You quickly responded to my initial inquiry with positive feedback. You were supportive, creative, and addressed our desires for courses and accommodations.. And you then completely delivered. You chose beautiful and challenging golf courses. We checked in for our tee times without any issues, and found the condos at Chula Vista to be welcoming, and just the right size for comfort and relaxation at the end of our golf rounds. Plus you made the effort to come and find me on the course with your daughter to say “hi”. Really appreciate the personal touch. You made all my buddies very happy, and we are already planning for a repeat and expanded outing in the future. Without hesitation, I would recommend you and your services to anyone planning a well orchestrated golf outing”
“Jason–a delayed thanks from all of us in the Bottoms party for a great golf trip. The Straits was as difficult as ever; I had forgotten the Irish, but it was a pleasure to play it again; never have played the River well, and didn’t again; Sand Valley and Mammoth Dunes were treats–Sue and I may play there again this coming July on our annual trip to Northern Wisconsin; and Erin Hills was magnificent, but a hard walk on my knee (which now looks like a melon). Sue had 8 pars there!! Loved the Irish Pub and the Smithwicks at the end of the day. We would recommend you to anybody contemplating a golf trip to Wisconsin!”
“I was in the early stages of planning a trip to Kohler for our group of 4 when I found the Wisconsin Golf Trips’ website. One conversation with Jason was all it took to realize his contacts, experience and attention to detail would insure a great trip and allow us to enjoy it without worrying about all the logistics. Our trip went off exactly as planned and Jason’s inside knowledge of the resort, accommodations, options and amenities was invaluable. We’re beginning to talk about our 2019 trip and there’s no doubt we’ll use Jason and Wisconsin Golf Trips again!”
“We had an awesome trip to Wisconsin to play some very solid and challenging tracks. We began planning months in advance and Jason was flexible with our group as we worked out the details. The amount and level of communication was just right and everything went smoothly on each and every day. I can see why this is a premier resort golf destination.”
“Our trip to Bend, Oregon was the best one yet. As you know with large groups it can be a challenge to please everyone, you provided my group with a flexible schedule that allowed all skill levels to enjoy the beauty of the area. Each course provided an exciting golf experience that will be hard to beat. Thank you again for organizing a trip to remember.”
“Jason was great to work with! We had done our own research and had conflicting views of what courses and routing we wanted to do. Jason gave us a good assessment of the pros and cons of each potential itinerary and hit the spot with his recommendations. And then he put together a fantastic trip. Thanks again for all your help, it was greatly appreciated!”
“Jason, I wanted to thank you for your help in planning our Wisconsin golf trip, and all you did in making it a great time for our group. The golf was spectacular, and your advice on trip details were spot on, and made the trip so much better than if I’d done it on my own. Your recommendations on timing, travel and lodging made for a smooth, enjoyable trip for all. Special thanks are due for going above and beyond when rescheduling our day at Erin Hills due to the weather. Being able to reschedule our round and transportation on just two days’ notice was very impressive, and saved one of our prime golf days of the week. For that alone, your services were well worthwhile and much appreciated. Lastly, I would like to thank you for your customer service and ease to work with. Whether it was making payments, daily updates on our itinerary, advice on travel or suggestions on restaurants, your input and expertise made my job of planning this trip a breeze. Having the association with your company last week really brought us special treatment from the resorts and golf courses we visited. Thanks again, and I look forward to recommending you to others in the future.”
“During the summer of 2018 eight of us went on a buddies golf trip to Wisconsin organized by Wisconsin Golf Trips. The owner, Jason Kauflin, was a true pleasure to deal with in organizing the trip. During the initial conversation Jason quickly understood the type of golf adventure that we wanted. He quickly responded with 2 different proposals. Both of them fit our desires exceptionally well. We chose a trip that included Erin Hills, Sand Valley, Sentry World, Whistling Straits and Black Wolf Run. Jason inquired as to the level of quality of hotels that we were desirous of paying for. He did an excellent job at matching our desires to both the golf courses and hotels available. He had a high level of personal knowledge of all the courses and hotels. Our group has taken golf trips to other destinations and we have had to deal with clerks that would have to check with others to give us answers to our questions. With Wisconsin Golf Trips we dealt directly with Jason. He had the answers. The communication was direct and simple. Jason made the entire experience as easy and friendly as we could ever hope for. I highly recommend Wisconsin Golf Trips for you next golf outing to Wisconsin.”
“One Word…Awesome! After one short call with Jason, he sent me an email with some ideas and itineraries for trips to several locations across Wisconsin and into Minnesota. We booked and then at the last minute only a few weeks before our scheduled trip, our original resort wasn’t able to meet our need for accommodations due to a conference. Jason immediately rearranged our entire itinerary to a new location in the same area with all the same amenities and extras without any effect. He did it seamlessly and efficiently and we never missed a beat…now that is AWESOME! I will definitely use Wisconsin Golf Trips again and recommend them highly to anyone planning a golfing vacation in the area. You will not be disappointed.”
“We’re a group of 20 who needed to stay closer to home in 2018 after consecutive trips to Ireland in previous years. I must say, the itinerary Jason set for us was FANTASTIC! If you and your buddies are considering a trip, look no further. I would describe Wisconsin Golf Trips as thoughtful in every regard: courses, tee times, dining, transportation, downtime, hotels, really everything. From our very first phone call to the eventual ride back to the airport, absolutely flawless execution. And I’ll add this… I’ll be back for more golf in Wisconsin (FYI: Erin Hills is a religious experience) and I’ll depend on Jason to make it happen. I look forward to seeing you again soon, we appreciate your enthusiasm and tremendous effort!”
“My wife and I always had the wish to golf at the Kohler Golf Resort on our “bucket list”. Not knowing the area or how exactly to structure a trip to Wisconsin complicated our planning and timing for doing this adventure. My wife discovered “Wisconsin Golf Trips” online and with the assistance of the owner Jason Kauflin our trip became everything we would have wished it to be! Jason was helpful and gave us important suggestions to add to our trip through the beautiful state of Wisconsin. We highly recommend his company and his services! Also, if you are a golfer make sure that golfing in Wisconsin is on your own bucket list. Thanks again for the assistance and what I wrote above is quite true!”
“Our golf trip with 12 women golfers could not have been better! After playing many years in Michigan, we decided to use Jason Kauflin and Wisconsin Golf Trips for our annual trip and could not have been happier. After my first phone call with Jason, I knew we made the right choice. Excellent accommodations, beautiful courses, and Wisconsin Golf trips did it all, and did it perfectly. We have since been back four years in a row!”
“I booked my first trip with Jason to Mesquite, NV based on recommendations from some guys that have been on the Kauflin Invitational trips. Jason arranged a great package for our group and the courses he recommended were exciting and challenging. The views and layouts were amazing! I can’t count the number of times that we got on a tee box and had to get our camera’s out. I would definitely recommend Jason to book your future trips.”
“Our time in Wisconsin couldn’t have been better. You do an amazing job with Wisconsin Golf Trips! The courses we played were challenging, beautiful and really fun. The weather was perfect and the fall colors were just beautiful. Erin Hills was the greatest golf experience of my life!!! Thank you for making that day so great. You made that day a perfect golf experience that I will remember forever. I just can’t say enough good things about Wisconsin Golf Trips.”
“My group was fortunate to have found Wisconsin Golf Trips to help us plan a bucket list trip. Jason and Nathan not only planned the trip of a lifetime but they also kept in constant contact with us to ensure coordination for tee times and lodging exceeded anything I could have planned on my own. Thank you Jason and Nathan and Wisconsin Golf Trips.”
“Jason, just want to say thanks again for getting us onto this package. We all agreed it was a great trip and we will do it again sometime in the near future. Your customer service is outstanding and I will recommend you to anybody looking to put together a Wisconsin golf trip.”
“Jason, I wanted to send a heartfelt thank you for helping set up an epic trip to Kohler for our group last week. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the golf was outstanding. The planning and details were spot on. BTW- thank you for dialing up the outstanding weather! Couldn’t have asked for better conditions. Thank you again!”
“Jason, Our group just wanted to express our appreciation for the trip you put together for us. After Sentry World canceled the first trip you built for us, you went above and beyond to put together an alternate trip that was outstanding. Getting us on Sand Valley at the last minute made the trip truly memorable. Your planning was flawless and everything went smoothly. We highly recommend your company and will use you again the next time we come to Wisconsin. Thanks again!”
“If you are planning a golf trip to Wisconsin and want it done right, talk to Jason Kauflin. His attention to the details and knowledge of the area were extremely helpful. Our group of 16 had an incredible experience at Erin Hills and Sand Valley. Jason, I wanted to thank you for all your hard work planning our recent trip. It ended up being a fantastic time. It was a pleasure working with you and I’m sure we will be back to Wisconsin for future trips. Thanks again!”
“Jason, Our group thoroughly enjoyed the hospitality and quality of golf in Wisconsin. Kohler was a premium golf experience and adding the stay and round at Erin Hills was the perfect plan. We would not have included this into our itinerary without your insight and local connections. Our group has travelled together to golf Ireland, Kiawah and Pinehurst and the week’s accommodations were competitive with those venues. We hope to visit again and will be sure to refer others to Wisconsin Golf Trips who are looking for local expertise at planning the perfect outing.”
“Our experience with Wisconsin Golf Trips was fantastic. Jason was easy to work with and very flexible as we made changes along the way. We had a great experience. We played at Sand Valley and Erin Hills for the first time and having someone set us up was perfect. Golfing in Wisconsin in the summer is as good as it gets ! Great time for our entire group.”
“We are from the UK, and used the services of Wisconsin golf to assist us on our visit to Wisconsin for the US Open golf. Jason found us some great courses to play, at reasonable rates, but also gave us some great tips to help with our visit to Erin hills. Jason couldn’t have been more helpful and when we return to Wisconsin we will be using his services again. Highly recommended.”
“Jason, we had a great trip. The courses were great. Everyone in our group thought Erin Hills was the best followed by the Straits. We all thought the two Blackwolf courses was very nice and playable. All and all, a very good experience. I would recommend your company to anyone looking for that type of trip to Wisconsin. Thank you for everything!”
“Having Jason Kauflin of Wisconsin Golf Trips assist me with planning my yearly 5 day golf outings has been a very positive experience. He does all the leg work in finding lodging (sometimes including meals), making course suggestions, and scheduling the tee times. Jason is very efficient when contacting me with the details of the outings in order to make our golfing experiences successful. I definitely recommend using Wisconsin Golf Trips when planning your golfing adventures.”
“Wisconsin Golf Trips did an amazing job of allowing our group to enjoy everything we wanted to without having to stress out about all the planning. Jason helped set up travel, dining recommendations, tee times, even moving clubs from different courses. Not only were the courses and views spectacular, but the accommodations and variety of dining options put everything over the top. It was a flawless trip and wouldn’t have done it any other way. I recommend to everyone to give Jason a call and plan your next trip.”
“ Jason did a terrific job planning our trip with 12 guys. The whole experience could not have been better. He lined up the tee times, hotel and shuttle transportation and made the trip very easy. I was the lead contact in our group, and Jason stayed in regular contact with me leading up to the trip and offered great suggestions on logistics, restaurants and what to wear with the weather. We especially loved the app he offered and all the guys down loaded for the detailed itinerary with explanations. I had very little to do once the trip started and that was nice. I would highly recommend Jason to plan your trip to the Kohler area.”
“Jason of Wisconsin Golf Trips planned an incredible trip for us in August 2021. After a quick google search, I sent an email to Jason. Next we had a casual conversation over the phone on what I had in mind. He came up with an itinerary that was better that any of us could have expected. Every step and tee time was perfectly planned as well as online itinerary which makes the whole process smooth and easy. Along the trip, we met many folks who knew Jason and the outstanding job the company does….being in the hospitality industry, it was a true pleasure to discover this company and will always give them the highest of recommendations.”
