Double Dam Golf Course & Campground is looking for a versatile superintendent to be responsible for the day to day operations of the 18 hole golf course and campground.
Reporting to the general manager, the superintendent will be a proven leader in the industry and will have had a successful track record in the areas of turf grass management, human resources and financial management.

 

Double Dam Golf Course & Campground was created by local area resident Sherley Batke. In 1989 Batke transformed a portion of his land into a nine-hole golf course. In the early 1990s the campground and nine additional holes were added and the site became a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts and it remains a beloved fixture in the Rosalind area today. The front nine is a lush PAR 31 built in 1989 that requires precision shots to navigate water hazards, narrow fairways, and doglegs and set up your approach. The back nine was added in 1993. It is a PAR 35 that plays longer and allows you to take a much more liberal approach to your game.  Our serviced campground has 24 x 20 amp sites, and 24 x 30 amp sites. All serviced sites include power plus water & sewer connections. Internet service is also available
