Such a shame

It's a shame that they are closing this course this year or next. It really is a great course for the money. Very challenging for a shorter course and definitely makes you stay straight on your drives. Wish they'd keep it open but that's the nature of the beast I guess. Golf is a dying sport anymore

Worst manicured course I've ever played

Apparently Lake of the Woods does not believe in manicuring their course what so ever. Tee box grass length was the length of my grass in my back yard. The "sand" in the bunkers was dirt on 85% of the holes and it was rock solid on a few of them. The greens felt like they hadn't been rolled since 2005, super slow and very choppy. Impossible to one putt most holes. On top of all that, my twosome was stuck behind 4 elder gentleman for about the first 8 holes. They could see us plain as day behind them, didn't want to let us play through. All in all, probably will not be back to play this course. It's 45 minutes from me one way, much rather continue to play the Bloomington courses.
