CreeksBend is an 18-hole course in New Prague, Minnesota, laid out across 230 acres of wooded rolling hills and native prairie along with more than 80 acres of ponds and wetlands. Designed by Joel Goldstrand and opened in 1995, the course takes its name from the creek that bends through the property and passes close to the clubhouse.
That clubhouse is a converted barn dating to the 1930s, and the course's older structures give it a distinctly period feel, including an old schoolhouse used at times as a snack stop and sturdy bridges with a 1940s look.
The par-71 layout plays to holes ranging from 142 to 513 yards, with generous landing areas in the fairways, making it suitable for golfers of varying ages and skill levels.
