LINCOLN, Neb. – Landscapes Golf Management has been selected to operate the private Dakota Dunes Country Club in southeast South Dakota just a few miles west of Sioux City.
Under a multi-year partnership, the company will direct all aspects of Dakota Dunes’ business, including, sales, marketing and public relations, staffing and training, programming and special events, property maintenance, merchandising, restaurant and banquet activities, and financial management.
“We are impressed by Landscapes Golf Management’s success efficiently and professionally operating golf courses and clubs in Sioux Falls, Omaha, and across the country” says Craig Stanley, President of Dakota Dunes Country Club’s Board of Directors. “The company is the perfect fit to bring stability and forward thinking to our club, delighting members and putting us in a favorable financial position for generations to come.”
The club’s cornerstone is the 18-hole, championship, Arnold Palmer-designed golf course. Top rated by Golf Digest and Golfweek, it stretches 7,165 yards, plays to par 72, features a plethora of lakes and strategically located bunkers, and is nestled among picturesque, wooded dunes along the Missouri River.
Golfers and non-golfers enjoy the outdoor pool; tennis, basketball and pickleball courts; and a new, state-of-the-art fitness center. A variety of dining environments and relaxation in the Palmer Lounge round out the amenities fit for the entire family. Dakota Dunes is also a popular venue for weddings, corporate and charity outings, and other special events.
“Our history and performance leveraging cutting-edge technology for membership growth is of particular interest to Dakota Dunes,” says Tom Everett, President of Landscapes Golf Management. “We also look forward to developing the leadership team as well as injecting new and exciting programming for members to enjoy.”
Landscapes Golf Management’s appointment at Dakota Dunes Country Club follows its recent assumption of operations at Twin Lakes Country Club in southeast Wisconsin and River Run Country Club (Davidson, N.C.). The company was also granted extensions to operate Jeremy Ranch Golf & Country Club (Park City, Utah), Max A. Mandel Golf Course (Laredo, Tex.), Sutton Bay (Ager, S.D.), Hillcrest Country Club (Lincoln, Neb.), Tippecanoe Lake Country Club (Leesburg, Ind.) and Dodge Riverside Golf Course (Council Bluffs, Iowa).
