Bluff Creek
Now it is easier than ever to get to us with Hwy 212. Just 9 minutes from the 494 and Hwy 5 intersection. We are close to Chanhassen, Chaska, Eden Prairie, Shakopee, Victoria, and Minnetonka.
For our golfer's enjoyment, Bluff Creek will now offer 2011 Club Car Precedent electric golf cars, and now every cart will have GPS.
We have a snack bar for food and refreshments, a patio and firepit area, driving range, practice facility and a large outdoor event center to host your next tournament, business meeting, reunion, anniversary, or other special event.
Our course features many elevation changes that can challenge almost any golfer yet the large fairways and 4 sets of tees make it friendly to any handicap. The course is surrounded by woodlands and bluffs with very little housing. As you drive up, there are many scenic views overlooking the Minnesota River Valley.

HOLE 1
A challenging par 5. Our starting hole is a dogleg left with a blind approach. Try and draw the ball from right to left or take a chance by going over the trees to get a little more distance out of the drive. Then hit it to the 100 yard marker to have a view of the green. The green is narrow but long.
HOLE 2
A slight dogleg to the right, this par 4 is not long, but has a tight driving lane between the trees. The green is guarded by bunkers to the left and right.
HOLE 3
This par 3 is heavily bunkered both around the green , and short of the green on the left. 3 bunkers are to your left, and one on your right. Pin locations can be difficult when they are located on the right side of the green.
HOLE 4
This hole is one of our tougher par 4’s. The trees on the left stick out and tend to force your shot right. You can avoid this by hitting over the trees or draw the ball from right to left. The greens shape makes it hard to land the ball on the green and make it stick, so it may be best to land it before the green and let it run up onto the green. There is trouble behind the green.
HOLE 5
An elevated tee on this par 3 makes this hole look easier than it is. Be sure to land the ball on the green below the hole. The green has a lot of movement so be careful with your lag putts or a simple two putt could turn into 3 or 4 putts very easily.
HOLE 6
Another difficult par 4. There is O.B. to the left and trees to your right. However, the fairway is wide and forgiving. The approach to the green needs to be accurate. Miss a little to the left and you’re O.B. Miss to the right, and you’re in the bunker.
HOLE 7
Your drive will determine what your choices will be on this hole. Large trees are just to the right of the landing zone. Hit it too long, and you’re in the ravine. Hit too far left, and you’re looking at a wall of trees to hit over to a green you can’t see. The green is easily approachable, just don’t miss left.
HOLE 8
One of our par 5's where an eagle is not out of the question. A great hole especially during tournament play. Accuracy off of the tee is critical to avoid the water on the left. The green is large with a greenside bunker on the right side.
HOLE 9
This par 4 has some bunkers that could give you trouble. The fairway bunker is well positioned, and can be reached on the tee shot. Don’t overcorrect by going too far right or you’re in the trees. The green has a large bunker in front of the green. You can avoid this by staying left, or you will be forced to carry it.

It is challenging, yet a pleasure to play at any skill level. The only thing that I would recommend is getting a cart on the back nine unless you want some good exercise! It is a very hilly back nine and you will be walking up and down from hole to hole.
I highly recommend this golf course to anyone!
