Prairie West Golf Course opened in 1996 on the western edge of Mandan, across the Missouri River from Bismarck. The course was designed by Joel Goldstrand, a North Dakota native whose work includes several layouts throughout the upper Midwest. The property occupies rolling prairie terrain that provides natural elevation changes and views across the surrounding landscape, characteristic of courses built on the high plains of central North Dakota. The routing takes advantage of the site's topography, with holes playing across ridges and through draws that create variety in stance and shot requirements. The course measures over 7,000 yards from the back tees, though multiple tee boxes accommodate different skill levels. Native grasses and scattered tree plantings frame many holes, while the open character of the land allows wind to be a consistent factor in club selection and strategy. Prairie West serves as a public facility and hosts regional amateur competitions, including events sanctioned by the North Dakota Golf Association. The course is part of the Mandan Parks and Recreation system, making it accessible to both local residents and visitors exploring the Bismarck-Mandan area. The clubhouse provides standard amenities including a pro shop and food service, supporting both daily-fee play and organized tournaments throughout the season.
