We want to grow slow and steady. Plans are in the works for Goldstrand to add another nine to The Pines, creating two 18-hole layouts. This nine could open as early as fall, 2002. The Grand View Lodge isn't all golf, either. It didn't survive for more than seven decades without a major golf course for no reason.
Guests can rent ski boats, jet skis, canoes, and bikes or go horseback riding.
Fine dining is available at seven different restaurants, including the Italian Garden and Brownie Cote's. The only thing holding Grand View back from attracting more visitors nation-wide is the lack of lodging. People can chose from 60 lakefront cabins on Gull Lake and 10 more on Roy Lake. The Townhomes along the 8th hole at The Pines and the cabins at Deacon's Lodge are the deluxe staying options, but don't delay in booking. Moseley said Grand View is already 75 percent booked lodging-wise for the summer of 2001.
