A Superb Central Minnesota Golf Course-Grand National Golf Club, Hinckley, Mn

Shirley Norling
Just 90 minutes north of the Minneapolis, St. Paul, Mn. metro area and midway between these Mn. Twin Cites and Duluth,Mn. lies a superb 18 hole championship golf course. Located within the Grand Casino Hinckley complex just off Interstate 35 is your gateway to grand golf, The Grand National Golf Club.

The Grand National Golf Course is situated on gently rolling hills with wide bentgrass fairways and some strands of mature native trees. Graced by ponds, marshes and creeks, The Grand National provides both beauty and the ultimate challenge. A striking clubhouse is nestled among the 6,900 yards of fairways. The bentgrass terrain includes tees, fairways and greens. There are 27 bunkers and 14 waterholes on the course.

In addition to 9 hole and 18 hole, with or without a cart golf prices, the Grand National Golf Course offers play and stay packages which include hotel accommodations at one of 3 Grand Casino Hotels, an 18 hole round of golf, and a shared power cart as well as other amenities at the Grand Casino. For the ultimate golf package check out the golf and spa package. For prices on golfing and any of these packages, as well as tee times call The Grand National Golf Club at 300 Lady Luck Drive in Hinckley, Minnesota.

Facilities and services at the Grand National Golf Club include a full pro shop, snack bar and driving range as well as the Grand Casino which is right next door and hotels. This 72 par, 4 tee, 18 hole public golf course is one of the finest courses here in central Minnesota. The best part is that it is located only 20 miles east of where I reside here in Minnesota. Although I don't consider myself an avid golfer, I have had the opportunity to golf at the Grand National Golf Course a number of times. My husband and his friends use it on a regular basis.

For more information on The Grand National Golf Club, check out their website at .grandcasinoHinckley.com/golf or call them directly. I highly recommend this golf course if your looking for a day of fun golfing on a Minnesota summer day.

    I'm more of a miniature golf-type person. Went to a real driving range once, and couldn't even hit the ball off the tee! This sounds like a great course, though, for someone who does know how to play.

    I tried golf once or twice, not good! Now I consider it way way way too much work! We do have a golf cart so that counts as being a golfer right?
