T
he Brainerd lakes area defi nes
" golf destination, " with its huge
variety of great golf courses
and golf resorts combined with
a vast range of non-golf pursuits.
With the largest stable of MGA members
in the area, Whitefi sh Golf Club plays
host to a pretty intense annual competition
for its club championships. Almost
100 players compete in both its men's and
women's clubs.
Just northwest, Golden Eagle offers an
oasis of calm with a scenic combination
of woods, water and wildlife on a course
designed by owner Bruce McIntosh with
former PGA player Mike Morley.
Crosswoods Golf Course in Crosslake
has a beautiful, secluded 18 with a handy
nine-hole pitch-and-putt course for a
cool warm-up. Crosswoods is adding another
nine to its regulation course, which
will be ready this summer.
Architect Jim Dahl designed both EaThe
Classic at Madden's
www.mngolf.org
gles Landing in Fort Ripley and Pine Ridge
Golf Club in Motley. Both are woodland
courses that require some straight hitting.
Wildwedge Golf & RV Park is a great
spot for family golf outings, with a par-27
executive course and kids able to play all
day for $20. Just north on Highway 371 is
the Black Bear Golf Complex's regulation
par-72 18.
All of these golf holes were there for the
surge in the 1990s, when many local golf
resorts developed championship courses,
establishing the Brainerd lakes area as a
major American golf destination.
At Grand View Lodge, the 27-hole track
The Pines was an immediate hit. Nearby,
The Preserve followed and is undergoing
a $1 million-plus renovation (see sidebar).
Many of the golf resorts kick off the
season with an " opener " event, and Grand
View will host its opener May 1-3 with
Boogie Wonderland playing in a heated
tent on Saturday night.
