Burl Oaks Golf Club is highly praised for its beautifully maintained course, challenging layout, and fast greens, which provide a rewarding experience for golfers of all skill levels. The clubhouse and dining facilities receive commendations for their quality food and attentive service, with staff frequently noted for their friendliness and professionalism. Additionally, the club is recognized as an excellent venue for events, particularly weddings, thanks to its picturesque setting and accommodating staff.

Great golf experience. Solid practice facilities and great food in the clubhouse which overlooks the course. The course is not overly long (tips out at 6700), and requires accuracy off the tee. Most holes have water or trees in play on one or both sides off the tee. Greens rolled nicely.

Impressive course and food. If you are looking for a great private course , be sure to check Burl Oaks out. The greens are by far the best I have ever played. Steph the GM was an amazing person as was the entire staff, Extremely friendly. The food was top notch also. Thanks for being part of Birdies Burgers and Brews!

This is absolutely one of my favorite courses on the planet! Not only is it beautiful landscape but it is just the right amount of challenge for all levels. Some of our group took the motorcycles!

Quality private golf course at a fraction of the price of nearby country clubs. Excellent PGA club pro, who's made it to the PGA Championship. Many greens have been rebuilt to Hazeltine standards. This is purely a golf course, with restaurant and banquet facilities... If you want more, look elsewhere.

Excellent Wedding Venue! My husband and I couldn't have been happier with our experience at Burl Oaks Golf Club. Especially due to the venue manager Steph. Steph went above and beyond not only responding to any and all questions we had, but also did an amazing job giving us pointers. He was instrumental in keeping us both calm and organized. We never got the feeling we'd gotten at so many other venues that we were being nickel and dimed. Burl Oaks was very up front about their pricing, and it was very reasonable. The food was excellent, chef did an amazing job and our guests were raving. This…

Steph presented wonderful meal options (Thank you Chef) and a run through on our son and fiance's wedding. The venue is beautiful and is a perfect backdrop for their special day. I think everyone left feeling more confident and positive! Thank you!

Beautiful course. Fairways roll through marsh and forest alike Most holes feel like you are secluded from everyone else. Course was in great condition and well take care of. Must play while in Minnesota. For those who like a challenge, the greens will test you. Known for how fast their greens are, I can attest, they will test you. Clubhouse was great and staff were attentive and kind. 1st time playing course and will certainly look for opportunity to come back.

We had my sons wedding at Burl Oaks. I cannot say enough about how easy and accommodating they were to work with. The space was perfect, we sat 120 people for dinner. The views were so pretty, with all of the windows looking over the beautiful green golf course. The bar was set up outside on the deck. Guests loved sitting outside with the twinkle lights and fire pits going. We had the ceremony by one of the holes, and brought flowers and netting to decorate the arbor. I highly recommend this venue. We were extremely pleased with having a wedding at Burl Oaks!

A truly hidden gem just outside the Minneapolis city limits. It is by far one of the best courses around
