Plan a Group Outing at North 9 Golf Lounge in Prior Lake

Birthday parties, bachelor parties, team outings — we get asked about all of them at North 9 Golf Lounge in Prior Lake. With one bay on-site, booking a group here works a little differently than at a big multi-bay facility, and that's actually part of what makes it work so well for a tight-knit group.

One bay changes the whole dynamic

We run a single simulator bay, which means when you book, your group has the room. There's no sharing a screen with strangers or waiting on another party to finish their round. Everyone in your group sees every shot, cheers every putt, and gets to needle each other about that shank into the water hazard.

What groups actually book this for

Most of our group bookings fall into a few categories: birthdays where golf is the activity instead of dinner and a movie, bachelor parties looking for something that isn't another bar, and work teams who want an hour together that isn't a meeting. Prior Lake doesn't have a ton of indoor options once the weather turns, and a round on the simulator gives a group something to actually do together instead of just standing around.

How booking works with just one bay

Because we only have the one bay, time slots are the whole game. We'd rather you book a block that fits your group than try to squeeze in around other reservations, so the earlier you reach out for a weekend evening, the better your odds. For a group of four to six, plan on everyone getting real reps instead of standing around watching — larger groups can still come, you'll just rotate through more.

If your group becomes a regular thing

Some groups book once for a birthday and then realize they want a standing golf night. That's really where our membership tiers come in — the Eagle Founding Membership at $199/mo is our best rate for someone who wants to be the regular organizer, with the standard Eagle Membership at $219/mo and Birdie Membership at $259/mo offering more time and perks for groups that play often. Worth a look if your crew in Prior Lake is already asking "when are we doing this again."

Good to know

How many people can come for a group outing?

With one bay, we recommend four to six golfers so everyone gets plenty of swings in your time slot. Bigger groups are welcome too — you'll just rotate through more and can plan on less time per person.

How far ahead should we book a group event?

As early as you can, especially for weekend evenings. Since there's only one bay, slots fill up on their own without a party booked on top of them.

Can we bring our own food or drinks?

Send us an email with your specific plans — it's easier for us to tell you what works for your group size and event type directly than to guess here.

If you've got a birthday, bachelor party, or team outing coming up in Prior Lake, email us or book online to lock in your time slot on the bay. The sooner you grab it, the more flexibility you'll have on the date you actually want.
