Erin Hills Golf Course rests on a 652-acre site in the small town of Erin, thirty-five miles northwest of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Regarded by enthusiasts as one of the best natural sites for a golf course in the United States, Erin Hills received the unprecedented honor of being awarded the USGA sanctioned event - the 2008 Women's Amateur Public Links - before the course had even been seeded. In January of 2007, Golf Magazine rated Erin Hill… “Best New Course of the Year”. In February of 2008, Erin Hills was awarded the 2011 U.S. Amateur.

Inspired by the classic Scottish and Irish courses that were once built by horse-drawn plows, Erin Hills will be environmentally friendly, with very minimal land development aside from the course itself, and will take into account the majestic contours of the land that were naturally shaped by the glaciers thousands of years before. Evidence to this are the designers' plans to remove as little dirt as possible, with the green sites remaining virtually untouched, and dirt only needing to be moved on four of the course's eighteen holes.
