Grand Marais Golf Club

My father and I were in town for the Yankees/Cardinals game and had plans to play in the morning to kill time. Having never been in this area, we booked on GolfNow to avoid issues. We arrived at the course around 6:45 for our 7:00 am tee time (supposedly). The signs said the park opened at 7 as well so we were worried that we may be late so we did show up earlier.
We waited for 45 minutes along with a few other cars and called the golf shop 5 times (I have the call receipts on my phone).
Around 7:30, what appeared to be a maintenance worker showed up and informed us that the course was closed, had standing water and more than likely wouldn’t be open until Monday (8/8) or even Wednesday (8/10).
The fact that I was able to book on the Tuesday prior (8/2) and received ZERO communication from the course shows everything. I have tried to get a refund for the booking fee on a course that wasn’t even open but until they open back up, I can’t have anything done.
Disappointed and if I ever do return to the area, even though the course might be a gem, I won’t be returning

This is a nice flat course & pretty surroundings..

The greens are in very good condition! This course has come a long way now is fun to play!

Needs some TLC. Layout gives it good potential, just overgrown.

Booked tee time a week and a half in advance. Showed up 35 minute before tee time and they told me that they were booked with a scramble, and didn’t have any extra carts.
