Brainerd has long been the undisputed center of Minnesota's resort golf world, and the Pine Beach peninsula on Gull Lake sits at the heart of that tradition. The Madden's on Gull Lake resort has anchored this stretch of central Minnesota lakeshore since the 1930s, and the golf program that grew up around it — including Pine Beach East — reflects decades of investment in the game by one of the Midwest's most storied family resorts. Playing here means stepping into a lineage that serious Minnesota golfers have made an annual pilgrimage to for generations.
The terrain is quintessential north-central Minnesota: a mixed landscape of pines, birches, and the kind of gently rolling glacial topography that keeps rounds interesting without punishing the mid-handicapper. Water is a constant presence in this lake country, and the routing makes good use of the wooded, lakeshore environment to create a sense of seclusion even during the busy summer season.
Pine Beach East plays as the more traditional, tree-lined counterpart to the resort's other layouts — a walking-friendly, course that rewards shot-shaping and local knowledge over raw power.
