Interesting course layout

Probably the most unique layout in Southern Minnesota. Each hole is different with many elevation changes. Not to mention the absolutely beautiful vistas.

bad customer relations

In so many words he told us he did not like the Golfnow customers . He was rude and informed us we would have to wait since we arrived a hour early. We understand this if the all the tee times are booked, however as we waited the hour only 2 foursomes went off. We found the course in great shape and very interesting, hence 5 star ratings. But because of the check in experience we will not recommend this course to friends.

Pleasant surprise

I cannot tell you what a pleasant golf experience this was. We made the 50 mile drive just because we wanted a course we have never played. We expected a rough track cut through a cornfield. Boy we where dead wrong. Interesting layout, fast greens, well maintained, and the absolutely friendliness golf staff imaginable. Complete opposite of our experience in Le Seurer.

First time contending with "Foot Golf"

It is good to see younger people getting out at the golf course. However it was distracting. If you are like many of us old school golfers you do not like someone cackling or loud conversations when you in the middle of your swing or putt. They should adhere to common golf manners when sharing the course. I learned that I now must ask when booking future tee times if the course is shared with Foot Golf, if so I am not interested, nor are my golfing buddies.

Best buy on Golfnow in the Metro Area

We just returned from a golf vacation in New England. Played 7 different courses and I can say none compared with the Summit for value. The Summit offers challenges, scenery, and elevation changes similar to one's in Vermont and New Hampshire.

Pleasant surprise

We played this course many years ago and thought it was ok. But today's Headwaters course is so much improved it's hard to believe it's the same track. Maybe it is new management or greens keeper, but whatever happened it is very noticeable and is worth the trip to Park Rapids. Staff was very competent and friendly. It's hard to believe this course just survived one of Minnesota ' s harshest winters. Hats off to the grounds crew.

Not your typical back and forth layout

Interesting layout with a lot of variety. We enjoyed the course tremendously, will definitely play again soon. Great shape considering the Winter we just suffered in Minnesota.

Jack has surprises for you

We had read the reviews on Golf Now and where mentally ready for the challenge. What we where not ready for was the exciting experience. Without a doubt it was the most fun we have had the past 2 weeks on any of the 6 courses we have played. One bit of caution. Be sure to look over the hills in the fairways, Jack has some surprises for you if you don't.

Water hazards

16 of the holes had some kind of water hazard. Not all of them came into play. The course was very interesting for Florida, definitely not flat. A welcome break from your typical Florida course. staff was extremely courteous and helpful. Only negative would be the cart paths, if you are not watching the path it might jar you loose from your seat.

Great all round experience. Fairways and Greens in excellent condition.

This course in SW Michigan is a great deal for the price. I needed to play a Michigan course as part of my "bucket list" goal of playing a round in all 50 States. It was number 42 on my list and I am pleased to say a very pleasing experience. Thanks to Ed and Mike for assisting with my goal.

Pace of Play

Unfortunately there was no Ranger. If there had been one he could of instructed the "arrogant" 5-some that they should let people play through. The Fab Five assumed they are special and did not have to abide by standard golf practices. Waited on 15 of the 18 holes, just unacceptable for a Tuesday afternoon. Hopefully the course did not sanction a group of 5 and that these "golfers" joined up after the first hole. To make matters worse they spent a lot of time studying their putts, while the rest of us had the pleasure of watching. Our group of was on the tee box, and the group in front of us was in the middle of the fairway as they went through their putting ritual. Bottom line it is a beautiful course and great layout, which is exactly what I would like to do the snobs in the 5-some.
