Enjoyable – Walkable – Strategic – Scenic – Challenging – Classic… all words used by those who have played our golf course, to describe our Seth Raynor designed Minnesota Masterpiece.
Minnesota Valley greens will amaze you with their variety, switching between audacious and subtle, large and small, several are huge, most include bold contours within, a few are flat with undetectable breaks for even seasoned members. With the immense amount of interesting hole locations available, putting is endlessly enjoyable and consistently challenging at the Valley.
In classic Raynor style, the foundation of our course is a compelling collection of par 3 designs named; Redan, Eden, Biarritz, Short. The revered Raynor routing builds on this foundation with a diversity of iconic Par 4 template holes named; Alps, Narrows, Valley, Knoll, Plateau, Prize Dogleg, Leven, Cape and five Par 5’s including a Long template,
Our historic 18 hole course maintains its original routing and plays to a par of 73. The scenic setting in Bloomington comprises 147 acres of gently rolling terrain above the great Minnesota River Valley, described in 1923 as, “ideal for a course, beautiful as well as sporty”.
MVCC recently completed a course restoration; upgrading infrastructure, renovating bunkers, restoring fairway widths, and magnifying Raynor’s fun features, interesting greens, and iconic template hole designs.
We also magnified our well established and widely recognized welcoming culture, by building five tee boxes on every hole so families and players of all skill levels can enjoy the Valley together.
