I liked this course! Challenging yet rewarded you for good shots. Even though you??re not far from the metro, you feel like you??re miles away with the picturesque setting along the backwaters of the Mississippi. The fairways were great and the greens rolled true. Also, the staff was super friendly and helpful. Even though I live 40 miles from this course, I can??t wait to get out and play it again!
The course is well manicured by a professional staff that obviously takes pride in their work.
The course is nestled along the Mississippi river and the mighty river comes into play on a couple of holes. It also provides great views along the valley.
It provides a great test for all golfers as it has lots of tee selections. Today I played the member tees, and at about 6350 yards, it was a challenge.
Mississippi Dunes is a very picturesque course with the Mississippi River running along several holes. The par 3??s are of varied length and difficulty, fun to play. Greens are fast and true. There is a nice variety of elevation changes. Wood slatted bunkers on the back 9 are great for alignment, just try to avoid them. I will definitely be back.

Played 18 holes of fabulous golf. Tee boxes leveled nicely. Great conditions all the way through. Fairways perfect. Greens very undulating for fun and challenging putting. Great service from the staff. Overall I would rank this one of the nicest gems in the Twin Cities! Would play again anytime.
Course is a treat to play from any of the multiple tee boxes. Fairways are well-manicured and some very interesting traps. Scenery is as good as it gets in Twin Cities.
A good test for golfers 0 zero handicap to plus-30. Would definitely play again and again this summer.
If you are coming to the twin cities, I hope you have a couple of days to play this course... because you will need them. One for the front side, and one for the backside. One round actually took me 6 hours.
Pros: some nice holes, quick greens
Cons: pace of play, staff
IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR A CHALLENGING AND SHOTMAKING COURSE, YOU WILL HAVE ALL YOU CAN HANDLE HERE! YOU'LL LEAVE FEELING CHALLENGED, BUT BRING EXTRA SLEEVES OF BALLS, YOU'D HATE TO PAY FOR 18 AND ONLY GET 9 IN...
Pros: BENT GRASS, NICE FAIRWAYS, FLAT TEE BOXES
Cons: YOUNG
