The town of Park River is located, naturally enough, on the banks of the Park River (the natural resource) in northeastern North Dakota in Walsh County about 50 miles north-northwest of Grand Forks.
Hillcrest Golf Club, a semi-private facility, welcomes the general public to shoot a round of golf with them. The 9-hole, 2,500-yard course plays to a par of 35.
Aside from local hunting and fishing opportunities, the town is located within easy driving distance of Devils Lake, about 60 miles to the southwest.
