Elk River Golf Club

About Elk River Golf Club

This solid municipal track in the northwest Twin Cities suburbs delivers honest golf without pretension, earning its steady 4.2-star rating through consistent conditions and walker-friendly policies that are increasingly rare in the metro area. The layout takes advantage of Minnesota's natural rolling terrain, offering enough elevation change and mature tree-lined fairways to keep your round interesting without beating you up. What sets Elk River apart from other public courses in the region is its genuine commitment to the walking golfer. You'll actually enjoy hoofing it here rather than feeling like you're being punished for not renting a cart. The course represents excellent value for money in a market where green fees seem to climb every season, and the staff maintains the kind of unpretentious, welcoming atmosphere that makes you want to become a regular. While it won't make any "best of" lists, Elk River consistently delivers the kind of dependable golf experience that keeps locals coming back week after week.
