The course is located atop the bluffs of the Mississippi River Valley overlooking Lake Pepin, and is a former farm converted by architect Gordon Emerson in 1997. Woodland-style holes are mixed with some tree-less, wide-open holes.

Lake Pepin GC stretches to 6,752 yards and features views of the lake on 12 holes. The clubhouse includes cedar vaulted ceilings, cathedral-style windows and a large deck looking out over the course, lake and valley.
