Comments
The Chippewa River flows
through the course and comes into play on four holes.
There are many oak trees lining the fairways. The large
greens are fast, and there are approximately twelve sand
bunkers on the course. Joel Goldstrand designed nine new
holes, which were added in 1978.
|
Tee time reservations are accepted up to
fourteen days
in advance by phoning the golf shop at (320) 842-7901. |
