Great Experience

I had a great experience at this course. I was a brand new golfer...just got my clubs a few weeks before. This was my first time out with them. The staff was extremely friendly. The cart girl was around often and even stopped to chat it up a few minutes. I left my brand new G wedge on the 17th hole but didn't realize it until I got home. I called the course pretty upset at myself and they had someone return it to the club house. I went to pick it up the next day and they had even cleaned it up for me. I was impressed. I only paid $10 for 18 holes with a cart and had a great time. I have and will return for sure.

Wrecked Farmland

This may be the worst designed course in MN. Blind shots over hills, up hills etc. There are bad holes, and then really bad holes. Suppose a good course for folks who just want to hit a ball around. If you value a good experience with memorable holes, drive 20 minutes in any direction for a better course.

Great Fall Round!

The course was deceptively challenging. Lot's of risk/reward decisions that seemed to favor not taking the risk. Took the driver out my hand too often. With that said the rolling open design allowed for some extra-juiced swings on a few par 4 and almost every par 5. Played from the Golds (6,300). .

Watch out for pond on 18

A late October round is always a bonus!
Good mix of easier holes and tougher ones.
Make sure you club it correctly on 18.

Nice fall day

This is a wonderful track even though there are a few blind shots there is plenty enough room away from trouble and the greens putted with speed that is about perfect to play on, really enjoyed this course will play again soon

Good Challenge

This course is perfect for golfers in the 10-20 handicap range because if your playing good it's very forgiving and open but if your off it can be very tough, I've said for quite a few years now they need to invent a ball with GPS in it where you can find it with an app on your phone because this would have come in handy on this course because there are shots where you can't see your ball finish so be careful where your hitting to and how far. This is a course everybody should play for the challenge and value price.

Needs Work

Played this course only because of the great deal, $29/18 & cart. Course was green, but the greens were in terrible shape. Way too many spike/divot marks on the greens and the grass was very thin in spots. Never got a smooth roll on the putts. The grass on the tee boxes was unkept and long. If they kept good care of the course, it could be really good. Either needs better yardage markers on the course or GPS; tough to figure out distances, especially on the par 3's. #13 green is the worst on the course, never in good condition. Overall, not worth the money unless you get a significant discount or they make some upgrades.

Affordable buy. Modern layout.

The price makes this course a very attractive buy. The course is a great modern layout although there are many blind tee and layup shots. The course seemed a bit over watered which has magnified the effect of high golfer traffic. The greens were still fast and undulating. The course has more potential than it showed the day I played. Overall I was still glad I came as this is one of those courses a person should play at least once.

Quick review

The course was in great shape but the greens needed some more attention. They were just mowed getting ready for their club championship and clumps of grass were left all over the greens. A nice course for using different clubs off the tee box. They could use some rangers to speed up the pace of play.

Tricky, hidden hazards.

Fun to play but there are hidden hazards that must be avoided and several holes where a 225 yard drive down the middle can reach the hazard.

Enjoyable but not unique

I played the course early on Sunday morning with scattered showers and wet conditions. The course is a moderately difficult track, with a few holes in the backside demonstrating some interesting characteristics. All in all, it is enjoyable but not one that I would put in my list of favorites. Friendly staff and well-maintained clubhouse. The course shows the effect of the rainy weather this spring and summer.

Good value

It was an excellent value, and considering all the rain we've had, the course was in pretty good shape. The staff was also very personable and accommodating. I would recommend this course on a hot deal to friends and associates.

First time playing here?

I played two days after heavy rainfall and the course was still soggy at some spots. The first few holes seem pretty boring, even a little frustrating as so many players end up in your fairway and you in theirs. There are few trees through the first few holes so the course starts out very easy, save the many blind shots.

Then the course gets very challenging and a lot of fun. The first time playing it is frustrating, because you really aren't sure where to hit. Bring a GPS if you've got one. There are many fairways that start out open, then bottleneck into some trees, then open up to elevated greens. Very tough. The back nine is much more scenic, with some more tough greens and lots of water. All of the par three's are fun.

If you're playing for the first time, use your scorecard and have some patience. Expect that following your round, you're going to want to play it again and get revenge!

a challenging course

got good deal on golf now so decided to play this challenging course 30 minutes south of twin cities. Had some holes with tough approach shots over water or wetlands. Greens were in good shape and rolled nice, but some fairway traps were in really bad shape. Had to position some shots off some tees with right club. Overall I would say it was worth the drive and the money.

Quick Play

I teed off at 6:30 am and was finished by 9 am...love those quick rounds. I played the front nine really sloppy and didn't have a par..but then I played the wooded back nine and had a great time..Go figure.!
Lots of sun and fun..I'll go back again for sure.

Target Golf

Target Golf with blind shots. Helps if you know the course. Greens were very fast and ground very hard. Was difficult on many greens to get the ball to stop and got a lot of roll in the fairways. Had some bunkers that were not let go and stuff growing in them. Takes away from the beauty. Some bunkers were true sand, others were not. Pace of play was horribly slow. Did not see a Ranger or Players Assistant to help speed up play. Good course for the money and very challenging. Will play it again.

OK Value

You can't blame the course for the poor weather conditions the day we played. Day was cold and the wind was 15-20 and seemed worse. A lot of the holes are exposed to the wind. Pick a calm day to play here.
I have played here a number of times and even with the prior experience, there are quite a few blind shots and I guessed wrong most of the time. The course was a little rough but appropriate for this early in the season. The greens had a ton of ball marks.
The $25 green fee was a good deal all things considered. I would feel cheated if I paid the full rate however. My recommendation is based on getting the lower rate.

GPS

Overall course is ok. I wish they had GPS though. I had some very nice drives but when I went over the hill my ball was in a marsh. GPS would be nice.
