Clubhouse
First tee
The driving range.
Not a lot of trouble
I like this driving range. Maybe because the wind is at my back today.
Irons only please.

Gross golf will be celebrating 100 years of operation in 2025! Needless to say, it's an old school course.The course is very fair and there are no blind shots on the whole course. When you hit a bad shot you can usually get back in play easily. Even with the almost 40,000 rounds played here each year, the greens are in good shape.If the City of Minneapolis would do a little more maintenance, this would be five stars. There is a nice clubhouse with hot dogs and sandwiches. The staff here is friendly and helpful.

I bought a gift certificate at a silent auction to bring us to this course. I have to say, I was pleased. The course was in good shape, with fairways and greens well cut and watered. It's a 'confidence builder' course meaning not too long, and not a lot of water and sand. Fairways are open and, even if you don't end up in the fairway, you typically aren't in a precarious situation. In other words, a course I like. As a first time player here, it wasn't hard to figure out where to aim. There are not a lot of blind shots. Also another plus. It felt slow because they jam pack the tee times, but we played 18 holes in about 4 hours so it wasn't bad. I would definitely come back to play here.

I always enjoy playing Gross, Wirth is probably my favorite Parks Golf Course but Gross would be a strong second. One of the main reasons it the pace of play always seems to be a little better here, some of the other city courses can get backed up and really drag out your round. You don't have the same city views here as you do at Columbia, Wirth and Meadowbrook, but you do have better conditions.Gross is walkable if you prefer, but keep that pace of play thing in mind depending on when you are teeing off. They do have electric carts which is pretty sweet, last time I played our battery died. We managed to get to the club house and they had us a new one in no time. They have various discounts available throughout the year so playing is pretty affordable, especially on non-peak times.

Great course! Very friendly to the average golfer. Only complaint I have is for the price the greens are not in great shape. Very very bumpy.

Good quality golf course in the middle of the city. Can't ask for much more than that (except maybe faster speed of play!!).I've played here several times and I've yet to find the day where I don't have to wait for people in front of me. The course is always packed and often you will be paired up with other people to accomodate everyone. No big deal I like to show off my swing (NOT).Thefore, I highly recommend that you take the time to walk the course as opposed to riding, as you will be waiting anyways (unless of course you have a cooler packed with adult beverages).The course is in good shape, no bald spots or flooded areas. Very fun to play and not quite as challenging, with mostly straight fairways and not too many hazards. I did not lose a single ball last time I played (compared to the 6-7 I lose on more challenging courses). So, get out there and play!

Not a 4 star on its own, but defintiely a 4 star in value! After playing at quite a few city courses for a league, this might be the only one that I'd actually pay to play again.6pm and on for weeknights - we got in a quick (but HOT) 9 holes for $15 per person walking. What a deal! The greens were slow but in great shape, and it was a very nice course to walk.Had it not been 100 degrees and eager to get home, I would have loved to check out hte very nice looking clubhouse!

It was a beautiful course! It had a few holes that had been neglected. Staff was nice and pleasant, carts ran good and we were paired with nice guys.

The course is I. Great shape right now. the staff was awesome, my only complaint is that the greens were a little slow, but at least it made chipping easy.

Went for the first time this week and was rushed to the box even though I was a couple minutes early. Very rude staff that was rushing us just to wait behind people on the next hole. The opposite of a relaxing day at the course. I won't be going back here with so many other places to choose from
