Welcome to the Sand Valley Resort in Nekoosa Wisconsin.

SANDY VALLEY in Nekoosa Wisconsin has announced the resort is expanding yet once again. With construction now underway.

Because there will be limited home ownership opportunities adjacent to the new experiences and the Sedge valley Golf Course opening in 2024.

“We have always said to our guests, ‘if you keep coming back, we’ll keep giving you more reasons to return,” said Michael Keiser, who along with his brother Chris Keiser, owns Sand Valley. “Sedge Valley gives us all something to look forward to.”

The 7th hole green site, on Sedge Valley.

Sedge Valley by Tom Doak will open in 2024, and will have some interesting green sites.

But for more on Sedge Valley see Sandvalley.com/sedge-valley.

But also to open in 2024, will be a new BBQ Smokehouse, with a BBQ pit and a line of craft beers. There will also be new interactive golf, with all-season simulators. During golf season the new six-acre putting course will open, with outdoor dining that will overlook the course. But indoor games will include a new arcade.

Because a place like Sand Valley isn’t known for water, it doesn’t mean there won’t be any. A new pool house overlooking Mammoth Dunes will open in 2023. The pool house includes, steam, sauna, cold plunges and eight massage rooms.

BUT IF YOU NEED A BREAK FROM GOLF-there’s Tennis. Because in 2023 the 13,000 square foot Sand Valley Tennis Center will open. The tennis center will have a bistro-style restaurant.

BUT IF YOU WANT TO PRACTICE YOUR GOLF, the practice facility will have a 500-yard range for you big hitters. There will also be an extensive short game and putting area. So if you need more, yes there will be indoor to outdoor hitting bays.

SO IF YOU WANT TO TURN THE RESORT INTO A HOME-there are 36 home sites surrounded by towering dunes by Sedge Valley. The homesites will overlook a 17 acre lake. But you can just own a cottage as well, if you don’t need a full home. First cottages will open in 2023.
