Forest Hills Golf Club sits in Forest Lake, a northern suburb of the Twin Cities metropolitan area, roughly thirty miles north of downtown Minneapolis and Saint Paul. The course occupies gently rolling terrain characteristic of Minnesota's glacial landscape, with mature hardwood and pine trees framing fairways and defining playing corridors. The property reflects the region's transition zone between prairie and northern forest, with natural wetlands and water features appearing throughout the routing. The layout presents a traditional parkland design that emphasizes accuracy off the tee and strategic positioning for approach shots. Tree-lined fairways require thoughtful club selection and course management, while the greens feature modest undulation typical of courses built to serve a wide range of player abilities. Bunkers guard landing zones and green complexes, and water comes into play on several holes, adding variety to the challenge. Forest Hills serves as a community-focused facility in the northern suburbs, hosting local tournaments and league play throughout the Minnesota golf season. The club maintains a family-oriented atmosphere common to municipal and semi-private courses in the region, with a membership base drawn largely from Forest Lake and surrounding communities. The course operates within the constraints of Minnesota's relatively short playing season, typically opening in April and closing in October depending on weather conditions.
