This club has three nine hole courses that are played in three eighteen hole combinations and an executive nine hole course. These courses are very challenging because they have several water hazards. The fairways are semi-hilly and tree lined, and the greens are fast and medium-sized. The club hosted the Senior PGA Tour's Burnet Classic in 1994, and is home of the Minnesota PGA Hall of Fame. "Golf Digest" rated the West North course as the 5th "Best Public Course" in the state for 1996, and the East/West course as the 35th best under the category of "America's Top 75 Affordable Courses" in their 1996 list of "America's Best Golf Courses Everyone Can Play." Joel Goldstrand designed the West Course in 1990.

Brush off your blue swede shoes for this course, Apr 12, 2004

reviewer: Diamond Bob from Scottsdale Arizona

Bunker hills is the diamond in the bunker of golfing in this part of the country. As the home of the Burnett Senior Classic for many years, it is easy to see why the veterans loved to play here. The ondulating greens are fast but accurate and the the pine lined fairways welcome even the novice to enjoy the beauty that lies all around you. The club house is home of the Minnesota hall of fame and is well known as the most beautiful urban golf course in the country. The course is located in famous Coon Rapids Minnesota, home of the Raccoons and Rapids.

WindRose Golf Club
"Upscale heading Downscale"
This course has so much potential. As it stands it is still one of the best courses in Houston for one thing and one thing only: Greens. It is just unfortunate that it has changed management hands several times in the last few years. In the process, each regime has focused on different things. Mostly cutting back on what the previous management did. No overseeding fairways in winter, Sand bunkers that qualify as gumbo bunkers, No restrooms on course, carts that badly need replacement. To compete with area course price points, they have dropped their average rates. What this means is more course play with less revenue. Couple this with the fact that there is less maintenance staff and no one fills in divots. Looks like a bombing campaign afterphoto on some fairways. The claim to fame is "Best greens in Houston". While this may still be true, the overall package is declining. I am concerned that even the greens may suffer as a consequence of the extra play and reduced maintenance. They used to put balls out on the range, but no more. They have some funky bag system where you lug these large red bags to the range with you. It could be so much better. Aesthetics are an afterthought. Actually, no one is thinking of aesthetics at all. I think they just keep thinking they can coast on the fumes of the reputation of their greens. Their slogan when the club opened 6 years ago was "Country Club for a day". An updated version would be more like "Mcgolf with your redneck buddies for a day".

Bing Maloney Golf Course - Eighteen Course
"Bing Maloney -- a decent public course"
Bing is a fairly easy course that is fairly easy to get on. There are a few holes that are semi-challenging, but not many. This course is fairly long and has lots of old trees boardering the fairways. Play the Blue tees for a more challenging round.

"Very good golf course"
Well designed course is kept in great condition. Greens are as good any you will find. If this was an 18 hole it would be one of the best in Massachusetts.

Swamp Fox Golf Club
"My most enjoyable round"
This golf course is in the best shape ever!! it has the best greens in the country. The staff was friendly and courteous. I would reccommend this course to anyone at anytime. It challenges the scratch golfer as well as the high handicapper.
