Gopher Hills Golf Course - Executive Nine

Not a great course but still a good one. Greens were extremely fast, by far the fastest in the area. The bunkers were very hard packed sand not soft at all.

Very rural location. Amateur course design means a lot of frustrating shots and lost balls. Greens were the exception and were very good. We were scheduled without being told we would be behind a large tournament of beginners. We left after 16 holes because of wait times. There was no sign of a ranger to keep play moving.

well worth the trip. Ryan, Nate, Ben and the crew are great guys. They love the game and making golf fun for a novice like me.

We really enjoyed the course. It was fun. All kinds of different shots. Hilly! We will return . I enjoy a few blind shots.

The layout has way too many holes that require a second shot to an elevated green and has way too many hard 90 degree doglegs left and right. The greens were very wobbly and this may have been due to what looked like a recent aeiation of the greens. I am afraid I cannot recommend this golf course to any serious golfer who knows a good layout from a bad layout.

Links style on the front and target golf on the back.

Gopher Hills was a fair test for this average golfer. There were risk/reward opportunities and you could still score without needing to smash driver. The greens were well manicured and the other golfers respected the pace of play nicely for a midweek round. The distinct differences between the front and back nines making the shift from a links-style to a more traditional feel, kept the course interesting throughout. A good value for the price paid.

The course was in good shape. Lots of hills so be prepared for awkward stances.

I teed off on the backside and it's very much target golf oriented. A lot of elevation changes. You need to drive the ball accurately, which I somehow was able to do (sort of forced into it). The front side seemed a bit more like a links style course with quite a bit of wind coming into play. The greens were in good shape but super slow. Had a nice time and would probably come back on any given day.

Fast playing, good conditions. No waiting ! Enjoyable pace for the two of us playing.

I thought some of holes didn't give you a fair chance if you were off a little bit your ball was gone.

The pace of play was great, the greens rolled very well. Staff is very friendly. Would strongly recommend this course.

Course was in really good condition office service was exceptionally considerate course service came by about every 3-4 holes couldn't have asked or had a better afternoon. Thanks to the staff

G.H. is nestled in rolling hill farm country approx 35 miles SE of St. Paul MN. It is inexpensive to play & has 2 very different 9's. Front 9 is links style - very open but also exposed to wind - back 9 is more traditional but has some blind tee shots. Very seldom get a level lie here as you are either going uphill or downhill - difficult course to walk 18. Course condition gets better once into summer months (seem to have more workers) and has improved over the years and green condition & speed is better in 2014 than yrs past. Generous fairways but punishing if you miss them as ball is often lost once into June & beyond. More enjoyable if played a couple times. sight lines & club selection. Pace of play is goo

Great buy, nice staff. Our favorite course in the southern metro.

Excellent shape and friendly staff made the drive worth it. Enjoyed the variety in the hole design and layout. We will be back soon.

Course was in excellent shape great service would recommend it!!!

Great conditions for this time of year. Great elevation changes. You need a cart here. Beverage cart girl asked what we wanted early and stayed stocked for the day.

Challenging but fair course. Excellent value for seniors. My favorite course in the area.

fun place to play nice people, .I would recommend people drive to this course.
