Good course layout and was in great shape.

Good value with Golf Now. Not such a good value if paying full price. Time for them to invest in a clubhouse that had inside bathrooms.

Terrific day at Loggers

Play this course about three times a year and always enjoy it. Loggers is a challenging course that will have a golfer using some skill as well as stategy. Greens have subtle movement to them which can be frustrating as your putt looks very good for a long time then...just misses as it catches a break. However the greens are usually in very good condition and roll quite well. All in all, a fine course that is attractive and fun to play. If you can score well here, you should consider it a day well spent.

Best staff, best public course in twin cities

It all starts with the staff. Been here a number of times and always have a present experience inside the clubhouse. Cart ladies are also very attentive and put a smile on your face.

Next the course has everything you need with a mix of tee boxes to challenge everybody tips going back to over 7100. Beautiful scenery, great mix of holes and plenty of risk/reward shots that makes golf such a great challenge. Nice range with two greens (one island) to practice on the irons and markers up to 250 to dial in the woods. Multiple putting greens that role true. My favorite course in Minnesota.

Love it!

This track has it all. It is in great shape and has excellent character. I love the layout. Plenty of bogies, but also plenty of birdie opportunities when your approach is on. Very fair overall. I've played it 8 times now and it has played differently every single time. The grounds crew can adjust the tees and pins and you're playing a different course each time. I would become a member of I lived a little closer - no brainer.

Great Conditions, Awful Pace of Play

The course was in great shape. The greens weren't terribly fast but still enjoyable to play on. The fairways were great and the rough was just what it should be. And the overall layout makes it a fun course to play and easy on the eyes.

The two complaints I have were that there were tons, TONS of unfixed ball marks on the greens. On the majority of holes I was fixing 4 to 5 aside from my own.

Secondly, on the back 9 there was a 6some playing together. An attendant from the clubhouse (not a ranger) came out and said he asked them to let groups play through or if they could play in 2 groups. They let one group play through and then there were 4 groups backed up after them for the rest of the back 9. This really should never be allowed, not tolerated at all. Lead us to a 5 hour round.

Thank you for the feedback and fixing the ball marks, we need more guys like you. We don't allow fivesomes, much less six somes, so we will investigate what went wrong, certainly not the comments we want to hear.

Loggers Trail is my favorite course for the price

Love loggers trail. It's like a hidden gem in some ways. Great price, nice layout and conditions, will give any golfer a challenge. Can't argue with 2 for 1s following your round either.

Enjoyable track

Loggers Trail is a fairly challenging, but fair course. It rewards straight shots and penalizes errant ones. Fairways and greens are in good shape. Not a bad course to walk.

A Hidden Gem

Loggers Trail doesn't get as much publicity or play as some of the other courses in the area , but it should because it is a challenging but very fair course. The front nine has more difficult holes than the back. Through Golf Now, the rate I had yesterday was fantastic. Regular rates are higher than some of the other local courses, which is a slight barrier. There is a lot of "no mow" areas which leads to some lost balls if you're errant. The fairways are generally very wide and in good condition.

Two problems

I've played this course for years and there are a couple problems they should address but haven't since I can remember. For some reason they have sprinklers on throughout the day and they also have some weird idea of how to cut cups. They have three cups cut at once and do a terrible job covering the two they are not using. But it's a nice course. A little pricey but if they corrected these problems I would play here a lot more.

Thank you for taking the time to review the course. At the time you played we were extremely dry which was the reason for both problems. Come out here now and you won't see a sprinkler on, and won't even know where the other cups are. Thank you for the feedback though we looked into both issues.

Great Value!

I have played LT a number of times but not for a couple years. The course was in very good shape, the greens were true and consistent. The staff was very friendly, from check-in to on-course refreshment and post-round. I will be adding LT to my "play more often" list.

Awesome round

My boyfriend and I had been wanting to try this course for awhile. The weather wasn't looking the best for the tee time. I called and the staff member that answered and gave me his thoughts on how the weather would be. We ended up going and the weather (as he said) turned out good. We will definitely be going back. We had a really nice round. Course was very nice. Just want to comment on a few other reviews I read. People not impressed with the ( double wide trailer) clubhouse. If you want a country club than maybe golfnow is not for you. Will for sure recommend this course to others and we will be back.. Thank you for the much enjoyed round.

Nice Course

Nice course with significant challenges. Keep it in the short stuff or it's gone... Never found one ball I hit towards a mound, and lost several in the rough itself. Oh - and beware of the treeline down the right side on 4. If you push one in there - consider it dead.. even if you can see it, just let it go. The barb wire they have hidden in the brush will give you a nasty reminder you are OB.... or so says the 6 inch gash on my right shin.

Sorry to hear about your leg. I did some investigating, and that barb wire is the property line and not something we can remove. It's quite a ways in there though, so hopefully no one else runs into the same issue.

GOLD BALLS

So lets start this with saying..I walked in the "Double Wide" trailer they call a clubhouse. Ordered up 2 beers and 2 buckets of balls. The kid behind the counter says "That'll be 30BUCKS.. I paid and went to get my balls out of their shotty 1984 ball machine. Dropped in the tokens and YUP here comes some dirty, no dimple balls right into the buckets. SWEET just want I wanted to hit with my new woods some junky, not washed dirty balls. I went to the range which has got to be the worst range in the TRI state area with like 3 sticks out there, no yardages, a Island Green like they think they are the TPC SawGrass.... The suns in your eyes if you go there in the evenings so don't waste your time because you can't see anything your hitting at. They also have some putting and chipping greens next to it that are big enough for 3 kids to play on. They bumped up the rates on everything this year so maybe they can remodel the double wide?? The course is boring, every hole looks the same. Is this supposed to be a golf course or cow pasture? Not sure yet, still wrapping my mind on it. There are far to many nice courses in the metro area you can play that blows this place away. I suggest going somewhere you can get you hard earned moneys worth. This isn't it.

Mr. Big Butts - Thank you for your business and review. Based on a few of your comments it's apparent you didn't have a good time out here. Hopefully you have a better time next time out.

I'd be happy to discuss this further with you, feel free to give me a call at 651-497-0230 anytime or email me at tmatsche@loggerstrail.com.

Hopefully your new woods are treating you well. Have a great day Mr. Big Butts.

Best Deal in the Twin Cities

I cannot say enough good things about this place. Friendly staff, great range with an island green to dial in your irons before the round, and great mixture of holes with the front having trees in play and back is links style. Greens roll true and have never had a bad time at Loggers.
