What are the top public golf courses in Nebraska?
It depends who you ask. In the case of GolfPass' annual Golfers Choice ranking lists, you are the expert, along with thousands of your fellow golfers.
We compile our annual Golfers' Choice lists by analyzing the ratings and reviews submitted by members of our community - golfers like you - throughout the previous year. We use GolfPass' Ratings Index logic that weights newer reviews and combine it with a course's subcategory averages. Courses must offer public access and have received at least one review in 2023 to be eligible for this year's list. If you want to play any of these courses, hover your browser over the course photo and if tee times are available, you can click to book directly.

What they're saying: "Played with two foursomes and everyone loved the course. Several interesting holes and greens were excellent." - u314164557083 -
Tatanka Golf Club
Green fee: $80
What they're saying: "Our friends told us about this course over in Niobrara, NE, so we decided to check it out. Wow! What a nice surprise! Beautiful vistas, rolling hills, lush fairways, carpet greens - we loved it! We also took two traveling golf pros with us who were in town for a pro-am tournament and they loved it too. They both said it made their all Top 10 list of best golf courses they’ve ever played - and they’ve played ALOT of different courses! Even though the rate is a bit high, it is well worth it! You’d pay over $100/round for a course like this in a Texas or California. Give it a try - you’ll love it!" - dongog -
Elmwood Park Golf Course
Green fee: $42
What they're saying: "Elmwood is kept in good shape; greens are nice. The course is perfect for taking my 2 boys out because it's just the right length, between par 3 course and traditional championship course. 135.00 for 3 of us was a little pricey but oh well" - tmcfadden81 -
Hillside Golf Club
Green fee: $37
What they're saying: "Played this course while passing through the area and am really glad we did. Nice clubhouse and friendly staff, pro shop was well appointed. The course was in really great shape, greens held well and were really fast. Course layout was great with unique holes and elevation changes. Beautiful setting with great views. Overall this was a really fun course to play and I highly recommend!" - u6387413 -
Riverview Country Club

Woodland Hills Golf Course
Green fee: $35
What they're saying: "This course was absolutely a great course to play!!! Only reason it didn't (get) all 5 stars on everything is because a couple of the greens were kind of beat up. But overall in my top 5 courses I've ever played." - Justin1818292 -
Eagle Hills Golf Course
Green fee: $38
What they're saying: "Nice fairways and greens. Electric golf carts are very Great. Challenging course with nice views." - Gchipps263 -
Lake Maloney Golf Course
Green fee: $35
What they're saying: "While traveling cross-country we stopped to play on a Wednesday afternoon. Course was wide open, staff was helpful, fairways were like carpet, rough was deep, greens were true and not super fast. Played in 3 hours. Saw only one snake. Some blind shots make it hard for the first-timer. Had a great time!" - CNemets -
North Bend Golf Course
Green fee: $20
What they're saying: "I enjoyed playing here so much we just got a membership. The course is very well kept and worth the drive. Only downside is no driving range." - bfoxhoven23 -
Benson Park Golf Course
Green fee: $30
What they're saying: "First time playing Benson this year. The course was in amazing condition. The greens fast as always. The rough was extremely thick and long so missing the fairway made things very challenging. I always enjoy playing this course." - jdheffer -

Fairways were in excellent shape and the staff was very friendly. I want to add that the pro shop hats were an excellent price! We will definitely be returning." - Justina2017 -
Oakland Golf Club
