Directions:
From Highway 14, take 5 south through town to a right on 78, right at the T to next left into the park. Park in gravel lot immediately on right. 1st tee 50 yards behind picnic shelter.
Pros:
- Beautiful location with lots of shot variety.
- Good baskets to throw to, and good Pro/Tourney and Am/Rec tee pads
- Restrooms, picnic shelter, playground and campground very near by.
Cons:
- Miles from anywhere...but if you don't like waiting between shots/holes, this con might be a pro for you.
- Nine holes, when they EASILY have the land and interesting terrain to go up to 18 if they were motivated to do so.
Other Thoughts: I love Plum Creek! Absolutely love it. If this course had 18 holes and were located in a highly populated location, people would be crowing about how this was one of the top courses in the State of Minnesota. As it is, it is well-worth the 30-minute drive for me to play every chance I can get (about 6-8 rounds/year or so). If you're in the area, you gotta stop by and play two rounds...one off each set of tees.
