Branson Hills Golf Club

Nice value given other resort courses in the area. Good fun layout

Beautiful course. Definitely worth a try. The pace was a little slow but with an afternoon tee time we expected as much.

First, the pace of play was completely unacceptable. They booked us up against an outing, giving us the old “you’ll never catch them” routine. It took 7 holes and 75 minutes to catch them. Three hours after that, we finally gave up and left the course ... on the 14th hole. It was infuriating.

I found the course itself to be a disappointment, given it’s reputation. Tees, fairways and greens were fine, but the conditioning of the grounds outside of the fairways was shoddy, plagued with crabgrass and bare patches. Aesthetically it just wasn’t pleasing.

The layout was not fun, with tons of blind shots and sharp doglegs. Despite the elevation changes, it felt monotonous. A grind. One hole after another featured a downhill tee shot followed by a steeply uphill approach. Wet conditions limited the rollout on tee shots, and then your long, uphill approach shots were to greens that mostly had no place to miss. As a result, the course played very long. In all, a pretty big disappointment even if you don’t count the glacier-like pace of play.

Sorry Branson Hills. We waited two years for a vacation, and you ruined our day with your thoughtless scheduling. We won’t be returning.

We added this course to our golf trip to the big cedar courses as our warm up round and was not disappointed. Staff was awesome and course as in great condition and very picturesque. Have the camera phone ready to go.

Course claims to be best rated course in MO, 36 best rated in nation. To be frank, that is pure BS. We have been golfing, across the nation, for a week, for the past 35 years and this course does not make the top 50% of courses we have played.

The pro shop staff was rude and the starter has the personality of a hockey puck.

Hole in one,I had my first hole-in-one on hole number 12 180 yard par three today. Great place to play course in great shape

Will be excited to play the course once it is greened up. Beautiful course and layout. Grass hasn’t totally greened up. Should be in great shape in 2 to 3 weeks. Great time!

My wife and friend played on a golf trip to Branson. We played Buffalo Ridge Payne’s Valley Top of the Rock and Branson Hills. Branson Hills was great, challenging, nice set up and layout and it ranked right up there. It was fun and I highly recommend.

IMO, this course is highly over rated. It wasn't bad and the condition was pretty good + employees were extremely courteous. It just wasn't great at anything. Condition is good, but not great. Greens putted really good, but small and very undulated for how small they are. Edges, fringes and around the greens were not in great shape so made some chipping difficult. Again, not bad, just not as good as advertised and expecting. Unless I am mistaken, I don't think the carts had GPS which made it very difficult for a first timer. One of the worst most anti-climatic closing holes I have ever played in my life. We were disappointed after playing Ledgestone the day before.

Very good conditions for early season. Super layout with lots of variety in tee elevations. Lots of trouble off the fairways. A must play in Branson.

If you’re a beginner or seasoned, tee boxes are setup nicely. Beautiful hills and great grassy area. Enjoyed it!!
