Why we love this place
Why we love this place: Bunker Hills is municipal golf done right, affordable, walkable, and steeped in history most players never realize they're teeing into. Standing on the same fairways where Champions Tour legends once dueled, for the price of a public round, is exactly the everyday magic we cheer for.

About Bunker Hills Golf Course
Bunker Hills opened in 1968 as a public course on Anoka County land, designed by architect David Gill, with a third nine added in 1989 to form today's 27-hole municipal layout. Set among the sandy pines and namesake bunkers of the northern Twin Cities suburbs, the rolling, tree-lined design has long ranked among the metro's busiest daily-fee draws. Its championship pedigree runs deep: Bunker Hills hosted the 1976 U.S. Amateur Public Links, numerous Minnesota Opens, and, most notably, the Champions Tour's Burnet Senior Classic from 1993 through 2000, where senior stars including Chi-Chi Rodriguez, Raymond Floyd and Hale Irwin lifted the trophy. When the senior event moved to TPC Twin Cities in 2001, Bunker Hills remained a proving ground for regional amateur and professional golf.
