Reviewed: Played on:Jun 30, 2021 Played the course:once

Pros:

-This course is all about the hills. One of the most hilly courses I've played.
-Seems well maintained and in good condition. Metal benches are the best I've seen on a course.
-Lots of ace runs makes for a fun round.
-Not super busy. We went on a weekday morning and we were the only people there at first, two other groups when we were done.
-Teepads are decent, good size with solid rubber mat in wood frame.
-Navigation is pretty easy and well marked.
-Hole design is pretty good, with some options on which line to take and clearly defined fairways through the MN woods.
-Back to the hills because that's what this course is all about. The course is fairly short but plays longer than you expect because of the grade changes.

Cons:

-A few holes in the 400-600ft range would help, even with the hills. With the pars listed designed for beginners and most of the holes between 200-350ft, it feels a bit more like a rec course. Not that it plays easy - there are too many trees for it to be a cakewalk. But 1 or 2 long holes would provide more variety.
-Don't bring a cart. Walking up and down the hills is tough and frankly a little dangerous - many of them need steps to avoid slipping.
-tee signs are rocks with hole number, distance, and pars carved in them. They look nice. But the distances and pars don't jive with UDisc. Obviously rock signage is hard to update. A regular sign nailed to a tree would be easier to revise.
-Off fairways is extremely rough, just the natural thick Minnesota woods. Expect to spend some time looking for discs. Bring bug spray.

Other Thoughts:

There aren't a ton of 18 hole courses nearby. This seems like one of the best closeby. All things considering, a good course and a lot of fun.
