| Twin Cities Metropolitan Area |
|
| You might assume that there is a bevy of
high-quality, finely-conditioned golf courses all within a
short drive of the Twin Cities metropolitan area. But you may
be surprised to learn that many of these courses impart a
secluded, pristine, "Up North" feel that adds much
more to the urban golf experience. At many courses, the
natural beauty is set against a cityscape background. |

| Albert Lea |
Austin | Rochester |
Worthington |
|
| You'll be impressed with the wide-ranging

of this varied landscape, providing a diverse experience
that's unmatched. |

| Alexandria |
St. Cloud | Willmar |

and rolling hills of the south. You'll find golf courses
combining the character of both types of land, and one sure to
fit your tastes, in such communities as the town of
Alexandria, the bustling city of St. Cloud and the prairie
community of Willmar. |

Detroit Lakes | Moorhead |
Thief River Falls |

always lumberjack size. |

| Area 6: Northeast |
| Duluth |
Grand Rapids |
|
| Golf in the great Minnesota northeast is as
big and beautiful as the spectacular outdoors of the Arrowhead
region. This is golf in the land of cathedral pines and
sparkling lakes, including the incomparable Lake Superior as a
backdrop. Here, the deep woods surround hidden gems of courses
located from Lutsen to Duluth, Grand Marais to the Giants
Ridge area. |
