Devil's Head Resort is a golf, meeting/convention, and ski resort located in the Town of Merrimac in Sauk County, Wisconsin, near Devil's Lake State Park.

Description

[edit]

Its runs face mostly south, overlooking the Wisconsin River. They range from very gentle to fairly challenging. There is also a range of terrain park difficulty; one moderately sloped area has low rails and boxes, another has higher jumps, rails, and boxes on a steeper slope, and a third has large jumps. There is no glade skiing or backcountry skiing.

Two 18-hole golf courses operate during the summer and there are mountain biking trails.

Two hotel facilities are operated by the resort, one in the central lodge complex and one 6-story high-rise near the east side of the ski runs.
