One of Minnesota’s top golf courses in the Brainerd Lakes Area has a new owner with local connections and a true appreciation for the course and the area.
Golden Eagle Golf Club, voted MN’s Best Golf Course in the Star Tribune Readers’ Choice Awards for multiple years, has been purchased by local Minnesotan, Brady Hatcher, under Anchor Point Properties Holdings, LLC.
Built in 2001, Golden Eagle Golf Club is an 18-hole championship style golf course situated on 210 acres of a former private preserve offering spectacular views from its many elevated tees. Designed in harmony with its majestic northwoods surroundings, the forests, wetlands, and dramatic elevation changes all help make Golden Eagle a truly golden golf experience. Reflecting the belief that championship courses are not built just for professionals, Golden Eagle offers an impressive variety of play for all skill levels. What can be a serious challenge from the back tees can become fun and friendly from the regular and forward tees.
A driving range and large practice putting green with a green side bunker are available for the members and guests. The beautiful, rustic clubhouse includes a pro shop as well as a bar and grill for casual dining. Everyone enjoys the great views of the golf course and Eagle Lake from the spacious deck. With the focus of "Spectacular Golf and Spectacular Hospitality" Golden Eagle is an experience that leaves people coming back year after year and recommending it to others.
New owner has a great love for Golden Eagle Golf Club and the Brainerd Lakes Area
Brady Hatcher, his wife Angie, and their three children are excited to join the Golden Eagle family. They have been coming up to the area for 15 years and have a cabin nearby. Brady has spent the last 25 years in medical device development and manufacturing, but always missed summers in the mid 90’s working outside in the park and athletic field maintenance. He had a lifelong dream to own a course and Golden Eagle has been his favorite for years. The Hatcher family is excited to welcome everyone to the course this spring with the quality and service that members and guests have become accustomed to, along with some recent improvements to the clubhouse, landscaping and brand new carts!
“Golden Eagle not only has beautiful rolling hills and scenery, but it is meticulously cared for. The staff is very welcoming and always makes the clubhouse visit a positive experience. We are committed to keeping Golden Eagle one of the best courses in Minnesota.” - Brady Hatcher
