Alexandria Golf Club is where generations of families have learned the game amidst the gentle rolling hills of central Minnesota. Originally laid out in the 1920s, this parkland-style course presents a classic golfing experience with tree-lined fairways and strategically placed bunkers that subtly penalize errant drives. The terrain is largely forgiving, though subtle undulations around the greens demand a deft touch with the putter. It is a course where a power fade will be rewarded, and the left side is generally to be avoided. While the original architect’s name is somewhat lost to time, the course has seen subtle enhancements over the years, preserving its inherent charm and playability. Alexandria has never hosted major championships, but its consistent, well-maintained conditions make it a popular venue for regional amateur events, and a favorite among locals. More than just a golf course, it's a gathering place where friendly wagers are commonplace and the post-round conversation flows as freely as the beer. It is said that more matches have been halved than won at Alexandria, a testament to the camaraderie it fosters. And many members stop by the clubhouse on the way home for the best walleye sandwich in Douglas County.
