The Lido - C.B. Macdonald’s long-lost gem- will be restored in the sand dunes of central Wisconsin
The Lido Golf Club – designed by C.B. Macdonald - opened on Long Island in 1917. Like all of Macdonald’s routings, The Lido included many classic templates such as the Alps, Redan, and Eden. The Lido was touted by many at the time of its opening to be comparable in shot quality to Pine Valley and National Golf Links - another C.B. Macdonald design. Sadly, the course was demolished by the U.S. Navy after the Navy purchased the property for use as a military base during World War II. Ever since it disappeared, the promise of The Lido has intrigued many as one of the great lost wonders of the golf world.
We are excited to announce that The Lido has been brought back to life.

We are honored to announce Sand Valley Resort and The Lido have been chosen by the USGA as the host site for four USGA championships, beginning with the U.S. Mid-Amateur in 2026.
“Our golfing ancestors could have desired nothing better.”
