The explicit mission statement of the Interlachen Country Club is to provide “outstanding golf and family services” to its members, and the club has maintained that vision since it was founded in 1909 in Minneapolis.
All the founding members were golf fanatics, so it’s not surprising that golf remains one of the main features of the club.
The magnificent golf course here was designed by the iconic Donald Ross, and it’s regularly considered as one of the finest golf courses in the country year after year. The course established its reputation firmly during the 1930 US Open, when Bobby Jones ruled supreme in the golfing world.
In more recent years, Interlachen has also hosted the 1993 Walker Cup, the 2002 Solheim Cup, and the 20008 US Women’s Open.
Of course, it has racquet sports facilities, and courts where members can play games like tennis, pickleball, and platform tennis. The fitness center is also excellent with its wide range of equipment, along with group fitness instructors and personal trainers.
After your workout, you may also want to reserve some time with the massage therapists, although you should also visit them when you’re just feeling overstressed from work. They offer many different types of massages here, including special massages for pregnant women and sports massages.
Or you can also enjoy a dip in the pools. There’s a 6-lane 25-yard swimming pool, along with a 12-foot-deep diving pool. And if you don’t know how to swim, the club also offers swimming lessons.
As this is Minnesota, don’t be surprised that there are also skating rinks during the winter. Skating lessons are available for hockey as well as figure skating.
Like any other great club, the dining options here are excellent. It’s a great place to hold a wedding or any other sort of grand celebration
The membership, though, is strictly by invitation only. You have to be nominated by a current member, and then you need to get enough votes to get in. Then you have to be ready with the membership initiation fee of about $105,000 for the full golf membership, with annual dues of around $6,500 per year.
