HAVANA HILLS

The rolling prairie topography of southern Minnesota creates natural amphitheaters for golf, and this 18-hole public track maximizes every elevation change with strategic bunkering that forces precise iron play into undulating greens. Wind becomes a constant companion across the exposed farmland terrain, making club selection as much about reading the gusts as measuring yardages. What sets this layout apart is how the architect used the property's natural drainage patterns to create risk-reward water features that come into play on six holes without feeling forced or artificial.
