Reviewed: Played on:Jun 25, 2018 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

1. Many fairways well mowed because on a golf course
2. Prodigy baskets catch fairly well

4. Variety of hole types and distances
5. Good amount of elevation change
6. Challenging par 3s
7. No holes too short
8. True par 4s
9. Fair fairways on most holes
10. Water hazards
11. Good bathrooms in the clubhouse
12. Drinking water in the clubhouse
13. Bar and other food available
14. More worth your time than the last layout
15. Golf cart rental available
16. Cart-friendly
17. Organized tee time so no waiting around on the first hole

Cons:

1. Uneven tee pads
2. Some dirt on certain pads
3. Baskets do not catch certain putts
4. No extremely technical holes
5. Hole 12 is nearly impossible to birdie
6. Abundance of weeds to get lost in on some holes
7. Chair lifts get in the way sometimes
8. Golfers on the course
9. Pay to play

Other Thoughts:

In contrast to the last layout, this one is much better. Personally, this course is close to my home so I will be playing a lot. The elevation change here is something not seen much in most courses in Minnesota. Definitely worth your time to come out and see how you like it.
