Elks 797 Golf Club
About
The 797 Elks Golf Club, formerly known as Quail Lakes Golf Course, has changed more than its name since first opening in 1961. When the course was up for sale in the 1980s, the trustees of the adjacent Elks 797 Lodge purchased the property in order to keep a public golf course for the community. The front nine was created well before the back nine was completed. Although the two nines provide a vastly different look and feel, they provide plenty of variety that manages to meld seamlessly into a great round. The ever-changing landscape adds to the course's diversity. Mature trees and tall grasses line the fairways, making accuracy essential, and you'll also find strategically placed bunkers lurking along the greensides. There are definitely some challenges in store but with careful course management, you'll be rewarded with some birdie opportunities.

Good Job this year
I love the game not that good yet but ill get there, so this course is great for players all most skillsets! Iwant to let the elks staff know how good the greens looked this year!
needs help in the maintenance dept, greens good shape, sand traps suck and fairways to hard. fringes ruff and torn up by novice detail mowing
Needs mowing and map
The fairways were not defined and never playing the course left me with no direction as to where to hit the ball. The grass was way to high it was like you were in the rough the whole day.
Great course for the price
Great place to play when you don't want to take 5 to 6 hours to play a round. We played in 3.5 hours and never really had to wait on anyone. I absolutely hate courses where it takes more than 4 hours to play because they don't have rangers enforcing pace of play or proper golf etiquette. It was awesome!
no excuse
rough was not mowed and has been dry for 3 d. No excuses- it has been wet spring but 3 consecutive dry days and mowing should have been caught up--- on a sunday. Spent more time looking for ball or LOST balls in the rough. Found a lot of balls in the rough so I wasn't the only one struggling. Played as a 2 some but still took 4.5 hrs due to looking for balls. uggggg!
Fair
Not in great shape, plus, sand traps very little to no sand in them, tee boxes not level. Alright to practice, need some tender loving care.
Great little course!
Great place for the entire family!!
Greens super , great for the novice an great place for a good player to go low!
Great little course
Great place to build confidence in your scoring
Good greens . Good for whole family!
Nice place to begin the year.
Course was not in tip top condition, but this is still March. We had no issues with the course at all. We played as if it WERE our first time out. Good to get out and hit the ball. Could have played better, but not panicking at the lack of ball control. Nice day.
