Bearpath Golf & Country Club is home to the only Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course in Minnesota and the upper midwest. The club is located in a residential area near Lake Riley, a charming body in the southwest suburbs of Minneapolis. The course became a reality in August 1996. The course features yardage ranging from 4965 yards to 7250 yards, with 18 holes and a par of 72.

The course is laid out next to the sparkling waters of Lake Riley, with fairways routed around a residential development in a gated community. Several ponds display natural reeds, with a par three at hole 8 hitting over a pond, and the same foliage providing hazards on the left during the approach into hole 9, while sitting on the right during the approach to hole 18, with the latter approach also threatened on the left by Jacques Pond. Recent completion of a multi-phase renovation based on the Nicklaus Master Plan has enhanced the course.
