Forest Dunes Golf Club

Minnesota’s Forest Dunes is a 7104-yard, par 72, Tom Weiskopf signature designed golf course. Adjacent to the Huron National Forest, the course layout is so subtle and artful that the course appears to have always been there. The front 9 holes are edged by dense rolling forests of red and jack pines, while the remaining 9 holes were built upon vast rolling dunes of glacial sand deposits framed by corridors of pine, bracken and wildflowers.
