Golf Course Information

Description

The Red Barn Golf Course was the original golf course of the Wagon Wheel Resort in Rockton, Illinois. Built back in the 1950s, it is an executive golf course that can be very challenging to the better player. The title "executive golf course" means that the course has par 3 holes that are over 150 yards, and also has par 4s and 5s.

The Red Barn offers not only the beginner a great way to learn but the better player a chance to really hone in on their shot accuracy.

Marianne Floberg Kaiser has been the PGA Professional at Red Barn since 1996. Marianne, a lifelong resident of Rockford, earned her Bachelors Degree in Human Relations from Rockford College. Her father, John, was the owner of Strike at Reitschs bowling lanes in Rockford and her grandmother was Goldie, who the Goldie Floberg Home for Children in Rockton is named after.

Marianne started in the PGA as an Assistant Golf Professional at Rockford Country Club from 1990-1996. Marianne earned her PGA membership in 1996 when she came to the Red Barn. It is only fitting that Marianne and her husband Marty became co-owners with Stu Hall in 1999 and continue today, co-owning with Tim Storm.

Mariannes family is always helping at the course. Nathan, their 13 year old son, loves to play golf and help out at the course.
