PINE RIDGE GOLF CLUB
🇺🇸 Motley, MN, USA
Designed by Jim Dahl



Pine Ridge Golf Club sits in the lake-dotted region of central Minnesota, near the town of Motley in Cass County. Designed by Jim Dahl, a Minnesota-based architect who has worked on several courses throughout the upper Midwest, the layout reflects the rolling, forested terrain characteristic of this part of the state. The course occupies land that transitions between open meadow and stands of mature pine and hardwood, giving the routing a varied character as holes move through different landscape zones.
The design takes advantage of natural elevation changes, with several holes playing uphill or downhill and fairways that follow the land's contours rather than imposing geometric shapes on it. Water comes into play on a handful of holes, typical for a Minnesota course in this glacially formed landscape. Greens are generally modest in size and contour, appropriate for a daily-fee facility serving local and regional golfers.
Pine Ridge functions as a community course for the Motley area and draws visitors traveling through Minnesota's lake country, particularly during the summer season. The club offers a straightforward golf experience without extensive amenities, focusing on maintaining playable conditions and providing access to the game in a rural setting. The course fits within the tradition of unpretentious Midwestern layouts that prioritize playability and natural integration over dramatic features or tournament-level difficulty.
