Love this course!

We love playing this course and for the most part, everyone is so nice friendly and the course is in very great shape.

With that said, this round was a little challenging with the grass cutters and blowers following us on at least 3 holes in the front and anothedr 3 in the back. Doesn't really help when a mower is coming up behind you when trying to take a shot. First time this has happened, but was a little unpleasant.

First Time Playing

First time to the Ozarks and I'm glad we chose your club. I would like to have seen more water hazards but the quality of the course was impressive. Between the tee boxes, the fairways and the greens; all were flawless. Perfect condition with very few divots to be seen. And the trees lined course, dog legs and changing elevations gives you a bit of a challenge.

Cudos to all staff. Very friendly.

Thank you!

Bear Creak Valley

The coarse was lush and well taken care of. The greens were in great condition except a lot of players just won't fix there ball marks. I limited myself to fixing 10 per hole plus my own. The coarse has a lot of elevation changes. Some a little extreme. If you don't have a range finder you might have to play it two or three times to figure it out. Very beautiful though.

A hot day

This was a fun place to play and a good value.

You would not find the pga playing here but all levels of golfers would enjoy playing.

The course was in good condition, but greens could be faster.
