I am a wedding photographer and photographed a wedding at Nakoma Golf Club recently. This is such a stunning venue to work at! The venue is located on a golf course. The grounds around the venue make a beautiful backdrop for outdoor portraits. The reception space has a lot of natural light. The venue staff were really friendly. I would definitely recommend booking your wedding here!

Great venue at a classic country club. Food and service was top notch. We attended a seminar, but this is a popular wedding venue for good reason.

Very nice golf course with some great green complexes. Narrow fairways and good conditions. Need to hit it straight to score well.

Their pool is a bit small but has cool basketball hoops. Their diving board is really dirty. But their snacks are amazing.

The course layout is tight and full of dog legs. It’s a historic track laid out on a small plot. It can test you with some sneaky long holes and target holes. Clubhouse and pool are top notch. Brad the pro is a great asset. Food and beverage, well no one is perfect.

I'm an event planner that helped with hosting two events at Nakoma this year and they did an amazing job. Krys and Steven are fantastic professionals to work with and took care of everything. They took every request in stride and were very accommodating. The place was organized, the staff was friendly and attentive, and the food was great. Honestly, even the box lunches for the golf outing were fantastic! If you're looking for a wedding or event venue, you'd be in good hands with their crew!

Nakoma is great! Course is always in fantastic shape. Although when I was in the locker room after, some old judge came up to me and asked me what I shot. I told him I didn't keep score, so he asked me how I measure myself against other golfers. So I said by height. He seemed a little off-put but that. So 4 stars. Otherwise I've never had a bad experience here.
