Golf Courses
- King's Walk Golf Course (5301 Columbia Road) - An Arnold Palmer-designed, links style course that was built on an entirely flat piece of land, but now features rolling mounds and two lakes. King's Walk has tall fescue grasses and bent grass greens. Includes putting and chipping greens. A clubhouse is also located at King's Walk.
- Lincoln Golf Course (Belmont Road) - Originally established in 1909, Lincoln Golf Course is one of the oldest golf courses in the state of North Dakota. Due to the Red River Flood of 1997, the formerly 18-hole course has been renovated into a 9-hole course to make way for a new dike system. Today, Lincoln Golf Course sits in the huge Greater Grand Forks Greenway. Lincoln includes putting and chipping greens as well as a clubhouse.

Famous quotes containing the words golf and/or courses:
“Years ago we discovered the exact point, the dead center of middle age. It occurs when you are too young to take up golf and too old to rush up to the net.”
—Franklin Pierce Adams (1881–1960)
“The inconveniences and horrors of the pox are perfectly well known to every one; but still the disease flourishes and spreads. Several million people were killed in a recent war and half the world ruined; but we all busily go on in courses that make another event of the same sort inevitable. Experientia docet? Experientia doesn’t.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
