The Somerby course at dawn, seen from the air, with mist over the water and the greens laid out along a winding creek

Byron, Minnesota

So much more than great golf.

A championship course by Fought and Lehman, two restaurants and a 35,000-square-foot Clubhouse, ten minutes from Rochester.

The Club

A private club in the rolling country west of Rochester.

Somerby opened in Byron in 2004, on ground of wooded stands, meandering creeks and grassy marshland. It has become the kind of club where a Saturday begins on the first tee and ends at a table on The Patio; the round is simply the reason you arrived.

The Course

Among the top ten in Minnesota.

John Fought and Tom Lehman laid 7,038 yards through wooded stands, meandering creeks and grassy marshland. Golf Digest ranks the course among the top ten in the state.

It hosted the Showdown at Somerby in 2006 and again in 2007.

The Clubhouse

Our members would tell you the Clubhouse is the reason they stay.

All 35,000 square feet of it: The Chophouse for an unhurried dinner, The Grille for lunch after nine holes, The Patio when the evening is warm enough to stay outside, and the Ballroom for the occasions that deserve the whole room.

It is the part of the club that has nothing to do with your handicap.

Two restaurants and a Patio

The Chophouse for dinner, The Grille for lunch, and The Patio for the evenings that ask you to stay outdoors a while longer.

Racquets and the pool

Courts and the pool sit a short walk from the Clubhouse terrace, and the season runs as long as Minnesota will allow it.
