I grew up on this course - actually it was a much different (better) course at the time. When the…read moregolf boom was in swing, the City of St Paul decided to spend some excess cash to make this place a "Championship Facility". Whoops! In my humble opinion, when they got done they had removed hundreds of trees, ruined the golf course and added a very nice driving range. Now, they charge for a round here about twice what the course is worth. I have played it twice since the re-do and have been extremely disappointed with the conditions, the cost and the course itself. Go across the street to the 9 hole course - it's a better value and more interesting.

Got cussed out by one of the workers, I think his name was Phil. He thought we were just sitting in the back of the course playing holes over again.

I don't have much to compare this place to since it was my first time ever golfing. Other than…read morebeing at the driving range 2 other times at a course in CA. The prices were cheap and coming from the twin cities it's not that bad of a drive. The one main complaint I'd say is that we had a tee time at 1:45 and we didn't start till almost an hour later because they didn't have carts for us to use. I also suggest maybe 2 porta potty's along the 18 hole course rather than just 1. I have a feeling those trees are growing from a lot of pee. Which brings me to my next point. Though like I said it was my first time so I don't know what's normal but I felt like there were a lot of trees at this course. Kinda hard for a beginner. But overall it was a great day and I had a blast golfing! I would definitely try this course again.

Seven of us played golf at Bristol Ridge on Saturday June 24 and couldn't believe how poor the…read morecondition of the course was. Fairway's we're hard and dry. Temporary tee boxes on some holes.

Be prepared to study the greens - small mistakes can take you many yards away from the pin.

Most likely drinks very often.. just don't go. I know the price is tempting and the course looks.. okay at best. It's not worth it, save your money and don't give them your hard earned money.

The course is well maintained with not too many bunkers and not much water but I did manage to find some. A good mix of hole lengths. The service in the pro shop was underwhelming - not the most welcoming but not rude. We got a cart for my dad who had knee surgery not too long ago. It had rained that day but there were no carts on cart path only signs except the par 3. It kept telling him to return to cart path even on a par 5 and would become inop and then make him back up. When we circled back to the pro shop they were able to do a special setting given his knee so they did fix that issue.

The tee boxes were a bit chewed up at times. Fairways nice and rough had some thick grass. Because of recent rain, sand traps were either soggy or like dirt. Staff was friendly. We were paired up with two fun guys were who were lovely to golf with. It was rather slow. We waited on most shots. It was extremely busy and I did notice a ranger on the course at times which was helpful. Carts did not have GPS but there were poles in the fairway to guide you a bit. Loved the flowers. We enjoyed our experience so upped the rating a bit.
