Tipsinah Mounds Golf Course
About Tipsinah Mounds Golf Course
Tipsinah Mounds Golf Course sits in Elbow Lake in west central Minnesota, overlooking Pomme de Terre Lake, roughly midway between Fergus Falls and Alexandria and a short drive from Interstate 94.
The 18-hole layout features large bentgrass greens and wide, maintained fairways, with multiple yardage options that suit newer players as well as more experienced golfers. Its hazards follow a theme drawn from the Native American burial mounds found at the nearby Tipsinah Mounds park and campground.
The course opened to the public in 1982 and maintains a relaxed, casual atmosphere.
