Erin Hills
Erin Hills
Erin Hills is where the rolling heartland of Wisconsin meets championship golf. Designed by Michael Hurdzan, Dana Fry, and Ron Whitten, the course opened in 2006 and was crafted on glacial terrain with natural contours, fescue grasses, and sweeping vistas.
Its wide fairways, strategic bunkering, and wind-swept hills create a modern links experience unlike any other in the Midwest. Erin Hills cemented its place on the global stage when it hosted the 2017 U.S. Open, showcasing its challenge and grandeur.
Cypress & Salt curates Erin Hills escapes that blend elite golf with refined Midwest hospitality. Guests enjoy luxury accommodations, farm-to-table dining, private bourbon tastings, spa indulgence, and curated countryside excursions. Erin Hills is a journey into America’s heartland, elevated by championship pedigree.
