When can I golf?
MCC is operating with a full membership for the 4th year in a row. The play schedule has adapted for our bustling & beautiful course. Please take the opportunity to become familiar with play policies that promote enjoyable rounds for our entire membership.
Do I need a Member Number?
Wow! MCC is looking at another year of full membership! Lots of new faces from both the membership and staff. We are excited for everyone to get to know each other. To assist we are adding an extra measure to our member billing. Our service staff is coached and mentored to get to know each of you by name. To assist in directing the correct sales to each member account (we have 16 Johnsons!) you can also provide your member number. Your member number is the combination of your first name initial and last name initial paired with the last four of your cell number. (For example: Jon Doe would have the member number JD1234) We are excited to give this a try and present our membership with the most accurate billing of purchased items.
How do I access my Member Account online?
- Member accounts can be accessed through the MCC website via our Club software ForeUp.
- Visit moorheadcountryclub.com and select MEMBER LOG-IN from the far right tab.
- Your login is your email and the default password is lovemymcc. After logging in for the first time, we encourage you to switch this password.
- PLEASE NOTE: Only household members listed as the first applicant on the membership application have access to account information online. This is a default of the ForeUp software. However, any member of your household can access the account information if you provide them with your email and log-in password. Every individual adult on your membership can log in under their own credentials to make tee times.

Cash sales do not have an automatic service charge. It is acceptable to pay additional gratuity to the service staff at your discretion.

I own a Golf Car, can I use it at MCC?
Moorhead Country Club prohibits the use of private Golf Cars. The only exemption is for residents of the Moorhead Country Club development as stated in the property covenants. Those members are charged an annual trail fee of $500 plus MN sales tax. MCC has Golf Cars available for rental at a per use rate of $25/seat for 18-holes including tax. Seasonal Golf Car rentals are available for $800+tax/Season/Single Seat; $1200+tax/Season/Double Seat; $1600+tax/Season/Family (For golf car rental, double seat use is defined as two seats on the same golf car for two adults in your household under your membership).
What's Food & Beverage Minimums?
All memberships have F&B requirements. Our regular food and beverage operations are not open to the general public. They are an amenity for the membership. To support this amenity, F&B minimums are in place to encourage member usage and support. Golf, Pool, and Social Membership have F&B monthly minimums of $100/month all 12 months of the membership year. Minimums are calculated monthly and cannot be carried over to subsequent months or pre-paid. Gift Certificates may not be purchased to meet F&B minimums. Only sales of food and beverage items, exclusive of tax and gratuity, are applied to the minimum requirement. MCC does not have an off-sale liquor license and cannot sell sealed alcoholic containers to satisfy the minimum. The minimum is calculated monthly, beginning with the first day of the month and ending with the last day of the month. If at the end of the monthly billing cycle, the member has not spent the minimum, the difference between the amount spent and $100 will be charged to their member account.
SNOWBIRDS: If you have a permanent alternate address for seasonal months, please contact the MCC business office to set up your Snowbird status for F&B minimums for the upcoming season. Snowbird status cannot be applied retroactively. Snowbird status allows three months of reapplied minimums for the months of January, February & March. Snowbirds minimums will be absorbed in the remaining 9 months and carry monthly minimums of $133 from April-December.
What is the Membership Year?
MCC’s membership year runs April 1 through March 31. We are not on the traditional calendar year. The first day of each new membership year is April 1 and concludes on March 31. Membership is an annual agreement. Billing for annual membership dues will appear on your February member statements. Dues for renewing memberships are due by April 1 or arrangements made for installed billing are needed by April 1.
