Great course

Only reason they didn't get 5 stars on everything is bc the group in front of us was a 5 some which really slowed the pace of play. I don't understand why that happens and it is the 2nd time getting stuck behind a 5 some at this course. When you are on vacation and the rest of your family is back at the condo a slow round really annoys me as it is inconsiderate of my time. You can not make a tee time online for 5 people so why would a 5 some be out there but the teed of in front of the course Marshall.

Meh

They really need a Marshall on busy days to keep the "partiers" moving. First time I have ever seen 3 groups on a par 4. Waiting 7-10 minutes per box gets old.

2nd time around

Course was good fir this time of year. Could use a bit more care. Hopefully its just early in the season. Other courses already have committed to green fairways.

This is a fun course to play around the lake. It's nice, but nothing too crazy. Challenging but not to the point where it isn't fun. The right combination if you're looking to have a good time on a golf course.

Ozark Golf

The course was wonderfully challenging and incorporated the beauty of golf in the Ozark terrain. The only issue we had is the staff, BESIDES RICK, were very blah and the lady working the desk was very short with us. Didn't ask if we had every played, gave us no direction as to how to find the carts or to the rules of the course.

Also, the women's tee's were GODF AWFUL! It's looked as if they really did not care if women played this course or not. The men's tee's were prefect. My wife could not get her tee in some of the boxes because the ground was so bare and dry.

Back From The Dead!

Hadn’t played this course in over 15 years. It had gone downhill to the point that I thought the owners (Tan-Tar-A Resort) intended to kill it for more housing. New owners (Margaritaville Resort) have put lots of $$$ into revitalization; it’s now in great shape, and is a really fun routing!
