This place needs an update on the reviews 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 10, 2018 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

-Great private course (located on campground property and is pay to play)
-UPDATED BASKETS (replaced all of the old crappy baskets with the new green ones- check "cons" section in previous reviews)
-A lot of variety of holes, uses every shot in the bag
-I like how it starts out with a couple of shorter holes for warm-up, then you get to hole 3...
-restrooms on site
-Signage and bench on almost every hole
-very friendly environment
-Warm-up/ practice area/ driving range
-Randy keeps the course well manicured
-camping on site

Cons:

- To continue the complaints from the other reviews, holes 15-17 are really repetitive but I can see why they made it like that from a designer's perspective.
-Some signage is faded and could be updated
- not open year round
- not much for elevation change but utilizes what they have on a couple of holes pretty well.

Other Thoughts:

-Randy does an awesome job maintaining the course, he keeps it well mowed even during a wet season!
-They updated all of the baskets, there were a mix of baskets previously, but they are all updated
- Randy also used a lot of the old baskets to make shorter pin placements (two pins per hole) trying to cater more to the rec players that may camp at his campground

One of my favorite courses to visit in Southern Minnesota

Go for a round and bring the whole family! 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 16, 2018 Played the course:once

Pros:

Great mix of holes, well groomed, long and challenging.

Camping and a pool on site. Very family friendly. Owners are awesome. Nice touches like complimentary bug spray and a sign in book.

The CTP warm-up area is awesome. Hole 1 tees off near a pond and hole 2 goes right over one. Fun way to start. Great scenery, easy to follow.

Cons:

15-17 I believe are very similar 500+ footers and a bit repetitive which can be a drain at that stage of the round. Not a big deal though. Great for those with big arms.

Not a ton of elevation.

Other Thoughts:

I just want to throw a shout out to those running Maiden Shade. Easily a top 10 course in MN, if only because of the awesome and far-too-rare CTP warm-up/rec area with multiple pins at stated distances. The whole place is really nice and very family friendly. You can tell the owners care a lot about the sport so I'd highly recommend getting down there if you haven't already.

great course,extremely fun 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 12, 2014 Played the course:once

Pros:

great course spread around a campground. absolutely well worth the 5 dollar charge. Very, very well kept. Owner is extremely friendly and knowledgable

Cons:

Some of the short holes might be a little too easy. If it is your first time, make sure to visually find the basket before driving because the map will get you close but is not perfect.
