US 2 heads west to connect with the northern terminus of U.S. Route 63 and then on to Iron River and Superior.

The highway then curves to the northeast and continues in that direction until it nearly reaches the Tri-County Corridor (an ATV rail trail on the grade of a former Northern Pacific Railway rail line which runs from Superior to Ashland).

The highway then heads easterly (running roughly parallel to, but south of, the Tri-County Corridor for the remainder of its course).

About 1,500 feet (460 m) after resuming its easterly course, the highway crosses over the South Fish Creek.

(The name comes from the Chequamegon Bay Golf Club, along the north side of which the highway passes).
