Minakwa Golf Course is a nine-hole layout in Crookston, Minnesota, routed through the natural terrain of the Red River Valley. The course accommodates players across a range of skill levels, hosting tournaments and community gatherings as well as casual rounds.
Practice facilities include a driving range and practice greens, and The Ranch Bar & Grill operates as a full-service restaurant on site.
The club dates to 1923, when it opened as Minakwa Country Club, and it remained a private, member-owned club for more than eight decades. In 2003 it became a family-owned, semi-private facility open to visiting golfers.
