Shadowbrooke Golf Course

Love it out there. Easy walking with many nice character holes. Great track for the dollar.

We had a blast playing today! The clubhouse workers were friendly and helpful. The grounds crew made a point to stop working when hitting on the hole that they were working on. Greens have improved and were mowed much shorter so your putt got a true roll. Fairways were well groomed. The course has improved their sand traps from last year. There is new sand on all of the holes and they are well kept. The sides are trimmed and no weeds. I would strongly recommend the course especially for the price.

This course is so fun to play! It keeps your round interesting by hanging variations of hole shapes. It isn't a typical "back and forth" layout like a city course. Both nines cover the front of the course and the back. Many holes are wide open, so misses aren't a huge problem, while other holes require a demanding shot, so it's a good mix of bombing it and technical shots. I can tell the course had a wet fall/winter/spring but it seems like they are doing everything they can to make it in the best condition possible. Definitely improved from the beginning of the year until now!

I played here on July 4th and was very impressed with all the course condition improvements they are doing.

Will go back - fun layout and staff seems to also be improved.

course is beautiful, nestled in the country side off highway 7, beautiful trees, course is in escellent condition. believe me, it's worth the short drive on a beautiful day to play shadowbrooke golf course, in lester prairie, mn., just off highway 7.

Shadowbrooke is a fun track with plenty of challenge and a nice variety of golf holes. The course is in farm country and quiet compared to other courses closer to the cities which might be the best part of the whole place. Course is built on low lying land so avoid after a heavy downpour. Greens were slow but in decent shape.

Super-nice greens. Great fairways. Astounding price! If you are on the west side of the Metro, it's unbeatable.

Had a great time and will return again with more friend's.

Joel Goldstrand designed course. Five Par 5's and six Par 3's call for a scoring course with lots of chances at Biride! Very nice layout and I would recommend this course to every player!

Golfed on Sunday the 19th the course should not have been open. They allowed carts on course and it was a bad idea. Total mud bath. I hope the course was not ruined. Took 4 house to play 9 holes. Let after that did not finish the other 9

The course is a dump, and they know it, but if you're OK with that they'll let you play all the way into December. They are also always the first course to open in the spring. It's not convenient, well maintained, or challenging, but when you need to get your outdoor-golf fix in, you can count on them to be open.

This normally a good place for golf, but this early in year you have lots of snow and ice. Greens and fairways rock hard. It was still fun to play in February.

If you haven't played here lately you might want to wait until next season. There is a large amount of standing water to the point where they have moved the tee boxes because the landing area is under water. I am surprised that the course is even open right now. Because it is open, the carts have torn the course apart. This course needs to invest in a proper drainage system. If you are thinking of playing because of the cheap rate,don't wait until next season

I wasn't playing well and almost walked off after 9.

The course offers enough challenge for the price.

I've golfed at Shadowbrooke plenty of times, so before I start describing my experience, I should let you know it's still worth playing if you find a rate around $15 (incl. cart)...but barely. The greens are like a shortly-cut fairway. You have to kill your putt to get it close to the hole. The worst thing was when I went on golfnow.com, it showed several tee times open for the next hour, so I figured it wasn't too busy...I was wrong. To say they double-booked tee times is an extreme understatement. They had groups of 5 and 6 all over the place, and it took me 20 min. to play the first hole. I always thought I would play any course for $15 (incl. cart), but the unfriendliness, unorganization, and poor conditions are making me think otherwise about this course.

I can say this is a nice course. I like the amount we paid. The only negatives are hole 11 or 12 was like walking on a bog and the sand traps weren't sand traps they were water hazards or mug traps. I don't think there was any sand in them.

Great little course. Course was in great shape considering how much rain had come just gone through within the previous week. Only minor complaint was a group of four never offered our twosome the opportunity to play through which slowed us considerably especially on the back 9. That of course, is not the golf courses fault. The staff working this particular day were absolutely amazing!

Nice. Improvements are being made.
