This 7,000-yard Rees Jones course provides a full array of water and wood holes.
I visited this golf club somewhat on a whim as I had already planned a weekend to visit the surrounding historical sites. Designed by Rees Jones, the course is nestled just south of Morton and down the road from Jackpot Junction Casino. A somewhat intimidating entry gate allows access to the complex, and there is a well-stocked driving range next to the 10th-hole tee boxes. The 18-holes stretch out over 6,217 yards from the regular tees and 7,109 (!) from the tournament ones. There are plenty of water hazards, elevation changes, and sand traps to challenge all ability types including beginner golfers such as this writer. I played five early morning rounds here over three visits, walking every time. The clubhouse overlooks the ninth and tenth holes and provides the usual fare with excellent service. As someone who almost exclusively plays the same two or three public courses, I was a bit blown away by my first visit here. The remote location actually works in a customer’s favor if you don’t want to be struggling to find a tee-time. The fairways and greens were very well kept and the fellow golfers universally respectful and professional. Customer service in the clubhouse and restaurant (thanks Bert!) were excellent. As any true golfer knows, one of the benefits of the game is getting outdoors and this experience did not disappoint. The fall colors were spectacular and I can still hear the cows mooing in the distance as I try to clear the artificial lake on the 11th hole. I will be making (at least) annual visits here indefinitely. Superb.

Robert Trent Jones Jr. designed our 2-18 hole courses; 5 star Dutch Course and 4.5 star Bobby's course, giving us 36 of the finest holes of golf in the state. We also have a 9 hole reversible Par 3 course and Foot Golf to mention! Once you have finished one of the above mentioned you can grab a seat on the patio or inside and enjoy some refreshing beverages and breakfast , lunch or dinner in our Legacy Grille.
I play Cragun's several times during the golf season. I always have an incredible golf experience. The course is always in pristine condition. The staff are responsive, friendly and first rate. My favorite course is Bobby's, but Dutch is beautiful and challenging too. There are par 5's that are reachable and a couple of par 4's that feel like par 5's. My wife and I have also taken golf lessons from Chris Foley who is the PGA professional at the course. Chris is an incredible instructor who is thoughtful, kind and insightful with his instruction and feedback. I highly recommend Cragun's as a destination for golfing couples or for a buddies or girlfriends' golf get-away.

Golfers have the option of playing this award-winning course from 4,883 yards all the way back to 7,109 yards; this makes the game a great test of players' skills. Closed for the season.
If you enjoy perfect greens, fairway and tee boxes with a beautiful and challenging layout, The classic is a must!

Geneva Golf Club is a public 27-hole championship golf course located in the scenic Alexandria Minnesota lakes area. Designed by Joel Goldstrand, the predominant considerations in planning Geneva Golf Club were to assure top caliber golf and to preserve the inherent natural beauty of the land.The golf course consists of three nines; The Ponds, Island and Marsh courses. Each nine offers its own unique personality. With 5 sets of tees, the course combines a stern challenge for the most talented golfer with the playability desired by the novice.
