Interesting and Enjoyable Venue

I was pleasantly surprised at the maturity and interesting layout of the Sawmill golf course. It was very enjoyable and provides all levels of play with a valuable and interesting experience. I would recommend the course to anyone who likes a combination of features such as wooded terrain and occasional water. Well worth the trip.

excellent value and well-maintained.

Chisago Lakes golf course Is an and very well maintained and interesting golf course. The greens are the most difficult part of the course since they tend to be somewhat convex and difficult to hold. It requires a few holes to get used to. The fairways and greens are well-maintained and the facility offers an excellent getaway for an enjoyable round of golf.

Enjoyable and interesting experience.

I played the course previously in the spring when they moisture levels were much higher. Playing in September with excellent maintenance conditions provided an excellent variety of holes including the very unusual signature par five hole split by a grove of trees. Friendly staff, well-maintained and an interesting challenge for players of all skill levels.

Excellent Resort Course

The Meadows offers a resort type experience close to the Twin Cities. The course is well-maintained and offers an interesting challenge for a complete range of golfers. There are some signature holes including number 3, which is a challenging par 5. Overall the experience is quite enjoyable although the beverages appear to be somewhat overpriced..

excellent value and well-maintained.

.I found the course well-maintained and reasonably challenging. It's a great value and a short distance from the Twin Cities. Well worth playing once or twice a year.

Outstanding Value

Albion Ridges is an excellent experience and enjoyable from both a maintenance standpoint and superb layout. I've played there several times and enjoyed the course more with each outing. The staff is friendly and helpful and the course is maintained in excellent condition. The pace of play was steady and rapid and the course was challenging and has the feel of a links course. The greens were exceptionally well-maintained and quite quick. I would recommend the course to anyone willing to drive a few miles for an excellent golf experience.

Excellent Public Venue

Course conditions were excellent and the pace of play quick with no delays. The course is an excellent public course with many features found on private courses. Well-maintained with many interesting holes in the seventh hole being the signature hole.

great experience!

the staff was cordial and the course is well-maintained and offers a challenge for golfers of all capabilities. I was especially impressed with the condition of the greens and the overall speed of play. This is my second time playing the Crossroads Course having played the Signature Course many times over the years. I believe the overall condition of the Crossroads was excellent given the weather conditions the past few months. Challenging and interesting! Would recommend to anyone.

ShadowBrooke Review

I couldn't get the slider to work so I'll leave my review in the boxI couldn't get the slider to work so I'll leave my review in the boxThe course is the medium challenge course laid out nicely considering the terrain and an excellent value cost wise. It's apparent that the course was built in a time of expansion and facilities were not provided commensurate with the quality of the golf course. It is a bit of a drive from the Twin Cities but a fun course with some challenging holes. It could use more maintenance (I played the course three times this year) and the carts are not maintained properly (cleanliness and running condition). With a little better maintenance and care of the course, it would be an above average facility and certainly a worthwhile experience.
