There is a huge chipping and putting area where you can practice your short game. The simulator was fun and accurate - all things considered.

This is for all the people that have miss readings off the tee box. I think I resolved the tee…read moreshot distance inaccurate measurements. There is a setting in your profile to increase the power. The default for everyone is five out of ten. I moved my power up to seven and it's relatively close to what my two doppler radar shows. It's about 7 to 8 yards of carry off, but I can deal with that. I could move it up to an eight, but then my half shot wedges may go 140 yards. Uggg. I personally would rather have more distance accurate tee shots than wedge shots so this works for me.

$12 for a bucket of large balls. You can usually always get a spot to hit from. Nothing fancy.read more

Goats, cows, donkeys, ducks, and chickens! The mini golf is rated #1 in Minnesota and I think it is truly the best (closely followed by can can). Super creative artist designed course! They only accept cash so be prepared! Golf is somewhat pricey with prices being 14 dollars a person per round. But makes for good fun. Goat feed is relatively cheap at $4. Admission to just art is I believe 4.50. Make sure to visit in the spring/early for farm babies! And feed the friendly highland cow in the back!

We set up a tee time for 12:50 @ LOGGER'S TRAIL in Stillwater. The web site indicated $65.00 for golf and $19.00 X 2 for a cart. When we checked in at the course they charged us $84.00 plus tax +$19.00 X 2 for a cart. At best I would call this false advertising. Maybe they took advantage of the nice weather that day & just gouged that days players. No Sr. pricing was offered as well. I couldn't just let this go, I felt the golfing public should be aware. LOGGER'S TRAIL will never see our group again! Maybe they don't care. BE AWARE!! P.s.....$38.00 for a cart is also a rip!! Friday - Sunday & Holidays ** $65 $35(After 1pm) This last line is from their posted green fees!
