$76 (cart not included), played on Saturday, August 2010 at noon

Certainly in my personal top 5 courses I've played. Very tough but playable layout, with fast, true greens. The course is visually stunning, cut through the prairie, with unique black sand bunkers. Good mix of links style holes with more tradional American golf holes. The course is walkable if you are looking for a good workout, but you want to be sure you know what you are getting into, as there is a lot of elevation change to deal with. Overall, my only issue is the cost. At $70 walking ($90 with cart), this is by far the most expensive course inside 100 miles. It's worth the price for me once a season when I'm back in North Dakota, but it was a true gem at the $50 it was a couple of years ago.

Would travel: 120-300 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Best course in the area
