How Many Golf Courses Are in North Dakota?

North Dakota's golf landscape includes 23 named courses and country clubs documented in the USGS Geographic Names Information System, the federal gazetteer of geographic features. These facilities are distributed across 23 cities and 19 counties throughout the state.

Because GNIS records named geographic locations rather than operational business data, the directory represents a partial and historical snapshot of the state's golf infrastructure. Newly established courses or recently renamed facilities may not yet appear in the federal database. Additionally, information about a facility's public or private status, green fees, course layout, and other operational details fall outside the scope of GNIS records and are not included in this listing.

Golfers and course researchers can use this directory to identify and locate courses by city and county. Once a specific course has been located, checking the facility's own website is necessary to confirm current operating hours, rate structures, and booking availability.

Directory note. Listings come from the USGS GNIS named-feature gazetteer (2021 vintage) and are partial — public/private status, green fees and course layout aren't in the federal record. Confirm details on each course’s own site.

How to use the North Dakota directory

Start by narrowing to where you want to play — by city, or more reliably by county — then open a course for its locality detail. Every listing is a real, named facility from the federal gazetteer; for tee times, green fees and public-or-private status, check the course’s own site, since those aren’t in the GNIS record.
