Oak Marsh Golf Course

Great course, great restaurant in clubhouse.
Par for course is 70. Driving range and putting greens are top notch.
Price is around $ 17 if you tee off after 4:30pm and walk.

Awesome place to host the state Special Olympics tourney! Friendly staff. I don’t golf but my daughter does. Maybe the course isn’t super challenging but we like making our trek here each year. Parking is super easy and the weather is always grand!

This a relatively young inner-​ring suburban course (I’d played it 10 years ago or so when it was practically brand new) that even 30 years of maturity from now I doubt will be anything special. It’s certainly not destination golf. It plays with housing developments on the edges, barely any elevation changes, not much for trees, and maybe only one or two stand out holes. More than anything, it’s very forgiving and would be a great course for a newbie to learn to play golf on.
Back up on a trip to MN, two of us played on the Sunday morning of Labor Day weekend. We played there mainly because it was nearby, we could walk on, and because I screwed up and confused it with The Ponds
A friend did have a fantastic wedding reception in the clubhouse, so it does have that going for it

Less than 1 star. The group decided to try it here again. Big mistake! They actually charged the full rate for a trip around this absolute toilet. Dead fairways, dead greens, sloppy, wet conditions. Don’t waste your time or money. The only redeeming factor was Debbie in the bar/​grill who did her best to make up for the horrid golf conditions.

This is where I had my wedding reception and unfortunately the banquet manager went on maternity leave right before the big day. Here’s a few things that went wrong:
1. The tables were never set with pitchers of water as requested
2. The bartenders were caught smoking weed out back.
3. The bartenders put out a tip jar, which was also requested to be removed because it was open bar. My father-​in-​law let them know prior to the start of the party that the tip jar was to go to the bride and groom and put a sign on it. (Yes, I agree that this is EXTREMELY tacky, but I found out after the fact). The bartenders agreed, but then kept the money anyways. The «stand-​in» banquet manager (who needed to be called and brought back to the facility because she decided to go home) pulled my husband and I off the dance floor in the middle of our dollar dance to yell at us in the kitchen for it.
4. Because of this, the stand-​in manager closed the party a whole hour early. It was supposed to close @ 12:30 and they kicked everyone out at 11:30. She said this was what our contract said. Of course, I pulled out the contract the next day and it specifically said 12:30. The real manager sent us an «I’m sorry email.» Gee thanks for messing up my big night.
What a nightmare!
