The clubhouse is nothing to write home about, it's a small town/country experience through and through but the staff are friendly and very helpful. They do offer snacks and drinks for sale and prices aren't bad. The courses are kept in great condition and the surrounding landscape is farmland and peaceful. If you're lucky you might see a turkey or two while golfing. The holes themselves are nothing too crazy and for a beginner golfer I appreciate that. It allows me to work on my skill set and feel a little bit more confident about my game. Worth the drive into the country to find this little gem.

My friends and I dined in around 2 pm on a Sunday afternoon after finding my wedding dress in town (yay). We wanted to make this a celebration and ordered 2 Prosecco's and 1 Espresso Martini. The Prosecco's were not Prosecco's as they were served in wine cups and had zero bubbles. When we commented how flat the drinks looked, the server was positive they were fresh from the bottle. Rather than go back and forth a million times, we dropped it. Contrary, the Espresso Martini was delicious. I enjoyed the ambiance, big windows and cleanliness. The food was good as well as I opted for the chicken caeser wrap and a cup of tomato soup. The best part was hands down the beignet donuts served with vanilla ice cream and some caramel drizzle. Yum!!

I called Saturday afternoon to request to push the tee time back for the next day and he absolutely tore me a new one saying I was 6 hours late for my tee time and he wasn't able to book 2 golfers earlier that morning. mind you, it was raining that morning so I have a very hard time believing he had to turn away 2 people for a 7:45 tee time in mid Sept. I apologized multiple times and he would not accept any of them. I used to golf here all the time & throughly enjoyed it, but Ken has deterred us from ever golfing here again.

The starter let us go off early since we were ready and the foursome before us wasn't there yet. Appreciated that. We played in just over 4 hours. The forward tees are short coming in at less than 4800 yards. Tee boxes were a bit ragged. Fairways and greens were in good shape. Sand was not fluffy and more like light dirt. Not a lot of water on the course. Lots of trees and fairly narrow fairways. There were a couple of holes that were kind of goofy, and S-shaped hole, one with a tiny pond right next to the green that should have probably been a trap instead, and one that was using a temp green which severely shortened what should have been a par 5. Overall, it was a good course for the price.

The one thing to know, is that there aren't a tremendous amount of options for their brunch, unless you do the family style.

Everyone had a smile and that definitely contributed to a fantastic atmosphere. The course had lots of terrain and mature trees but wasn't too punishing for novice golfers (90-110 scores) who only play a couple rounds per summer typically but are working to play more often. I would highly recommend making the drive during the summer and can only imagine the views in early fall with the river valley leaves. Finally it looks like the clubhouse / restaurant is set up to host events and wedding receptions with amazing views. We will be back as the views, course, and staff made the easy 1 hour drive from Eagan well worth it.
