Mozingo Lake Recreation Park Golf Course
Green fee: $22-$34
What they're saying: "Hidden Gem, great value. Easily one of the best courses around, great condition, fun design, pristine greens. Couldn't recommend this course any more." - Balke -
Old Hickory Country Club
Green fee: $27-$44
What they're saying: "What is not to like... A great layout with 5 sets of tees, & more combinations of tees outlined on the scorecard. Beginner / youth / shorter hitter play the front most green tees, you will be in a position on every hole to have fun. Up for more of a challenge? Combine the white and silver tees to play the "hickory combination" outlined on the scorecard. Low handicap player? Play the back (blue tees) and be ready to be challenged. This course has faster than average greens that have consistent speeds from hole to hole, old growth trees, demanding tee shots, small to medium size well protected greens. Play the tees appropriate for your skill level and anyone beginner to expert can play this course." - GolfPass reviewer -

Meramec Lakes Golf Course
Green fee: $18-$55

I also found the staff to be very friendly and accommodating." - GolfPass reviewer -

Lakewood on the Green
Green fee: $20-$59
What they're saying: "Getting a low price made this such a treat. The course layout is challenging and matches that of many other Up North locations. Greens were true and fast. The front nine winds through rolling hills giving many variations in elevation. The back nine takes you around the lake and offers cool position shot holes, as well as elevation changes. The par threes are different lengths that force you to use different clubs. Lots of deer, herons and geese." - WolfLake -
McConnellsville
Green fee: $35-$55
What they're saying: "A hole without a bunker, the 3rd is the toughest par 4 in central New York. The greens are lightning quick. After a bit of a breather on 7 through 9, strap it back up on the back nine. A truly beautiful track, with great conditions." - muggs66 -

Will definitely go back again as the cost per round was very reasonable." - maparicio -

Seems like this is great for all the courses north of missouri or georgia. Perhaps you all could do a short list of the best value courses in the Gulf of Americas region. If these ratings are based on reviews and numbers, certainely denser populated areas would receive more attention with rankings.
