Two days golfing at Dakota Ridge this past week. While it is a beautiful, well kept golf course - it was impossible to enjoy. The bugs on the course were insane. Not sure if it was from the recent rainfall, but everyone I talked to complained about the bugs.
The second issue was that the restaurant’s cooler broke down. The menu was limited. We ordered a Texas burger that was served with jalapeños. When the waitress brought the burger - no jalapeño. I asked her about it - she said sorry we are out of those. Maybe should have mentioned that before - just saying. My friend ordered the carrot cake which was served with a pina colada sauce. The waitress brought the cake and there was no sauce in it. My friend asked about he sauce - the waitress said they were out of the sauce. What???? Again she didn’t mention it before hand. Unfortunately, it was a very disappointing two days at Dakota Ridge.
Great course in great condition! Challenging test. It has hosted the MGA Amateur Championship and many USGA Amateur Qualifiers. Unfortunately, not convenient to get to ... but worth the effort.
This is a hidden treasure. Waitresses were super nice. The food was very tasty but especially nice was the presentation. Lovely restaurant, very nice decor. Not at all crowded on a Sunday night. Overlooks golf course.
If you like links golf, this is the best course in MN. It is such an interesting course, beautiful, fast greens, and requires thoughtful approach shots. If you can stay out of the prairie grasses and the water hazards you can score well. It is usually windy but to be expected on a course in the country and prairie. Also, the pace of play is great and we never get paired up with other players. Make the trip to SW MN and golf here.
The course is a bit of a challenge for an old hack like me. If it wasn't for the golf package 2nights 3 days stay at Jackpot Junction and 3 rounds of golf and a $$50 dollar gift card($275 for the package) oh ya the $300 I won I might not have enjoyed
Myself but I DID. CK IT OUT.
