Insane amount of play, greens get beat to a pulp because of this and the price is way too damn high for it to not get better conditions, yet I love the layout. Will play once a year, get disappointed by the worst driving range ever and watch my ball fly over a bunch of pitch marks on every putt…

Owned by Three Rivers Park District, always in great shape. Back nine is very penal which decreases some of the enjoyment and causes pace issues.

Great condition, love the front nine. I think most of the back nine is uninspiring to outright not good. Very swampy and penal.

One of the best Goldstrand designs in the state. Generally in great condition, and tends to use the land very well with a lot of variety in yardage and difficulty. Just forget about 7, and this place is extremely underrated.

Easy to walk, very windy so plays firm and fast. Pace is very slow, most likely due to looking for balls in the long grass.

Really hard golf course. Lots of forced carries, marsh everywhere. Not a lot of fun if you aren’t on your game. 11-13 is terrible, but the closing stretch is fun otherwise.

The busiest golf course in the state of Minnesota. They have two leagues a day, five days a week. The course routing isn’t anything to write home about. A little ho-hum and the back nine has all the intrigue. Greens are secretly diabolical though.

Bunker renovations and green expansion have upped the thoughtfulness and variability. Lots of runoffs and interesting green complexes. Can often play firm and fast which is a rarity around the cities. Probably the most underrated public in the metro area…

Appreciate how militant they are about pace for a public course. Decent course overall. Lots of different clubs required off the tee.

Best all around course of the Minneapolis munis. 11 could be a really great hole with some renovation. 17 might be the worst hole in the state.

Fairly benign muni. Short, yes, but that keeps pace rolling. #2, #13 and #17 are horrible golf holes. The rest are fun.

Players have been losing balls here since the inaugural tee shot. Fun course with some great views. Conditions can be hit or miss. Only course I’ve walked off mid round due to slow play. With some investment, I think Teddy could become an awesome place. Great land. Great views.
