Course was in great shape. Greens were exceptionally nice with little to no damage and ball marks repaired easily. For a place that has not seen much rain "very good shape"

Very good experience

My wife and I played on a Hot Deal, easy afternoon tee-time. Pace of play is very important to us - there were few other groups on the course and we were able to get round in about 3 1/2 hours. The course was in great shape overall - the greens were a little slower than we're used to, but rolled true. Course difficulty was just right for us, who shoot in the high 80s to low 90s. Enjoyed a beer in the grill after the round, although there were no craft/import options.

Course is in good shape, greens rolled well, tee boxes were in good shape except 16 and it was under construction. Required a variety of shots. Do not walk the course, there was a few fairly long trips between green and the next tee. Some challenging holes off the tee.

Over all good course. Will play again.

Beautiful course in the rolling hills of Osage Beach.

Excellent conditions, perfect weather and a Hot GolfNow discount- what more could you ask for?

Excellent golf in the Osage Beach area

My Golf Now Hot Deal was the real deal as this is an excellent course.

Super weather and great course conditions made my mediocre play still fun.

Rolling topography is both pleasant to the eye and challenging.

Located across the street from the campground we were staying it made sense to play here.

It was great. Looking forward to returning and playing here again.

Nice Course

Got to course early from Ft Leonard Wood. Rate of play was not bad at all. Staff were nice. Great course and layout. I really enjoyed my round. Next time I'm in town for training I will make another tee time.
