Aberdeen is a gem

This course is my favorite in STL. It is always in great shape and is one of the better values. Matt/Greg and staff do a great job.

Great course for the money

Bunker placement was top notch ensuring accurate drives or carry to avoid. Fairways were in great shape and lies tight around the greens. Greens were challenging with subtle breaks requiring commitment to the putt or a line to drop in the hole.
I only rate below a 5 due to fall aeration in progress on the tee boxes and dirt turds remained. Tee locations were not specific as the markers had not been replaced.

Red flag special a great value

Course was in good condition overall - tee boxes had just been aerated. Very hot day and a few of the water jugs on the course were empty.

Interesting course to play with a good layout.

We played the Aberdeen Links course in full sun on a 97 degree day, and sort of missed the possibility of seeking shade. Kudos to the staff, for the water coolers were plentiful and full of ice water. It is a challenging and interesting layout. Zoysia fairways were consistently good. Bunkers were well filled with quality playable sand. The Greens, however, were inconsistent. If all were as good as #9 I would have rated the course much higher.

Quality Course

This is a fun course to play. In good condition although the greens were a little beat up from people not fixing marks, but better than most. Fairway bunkers are in tougher spots along with high native grasses making tee shots a little more important here. Can be tough from the black/gold tees. Had a lot of fun and will play again.

Neat course layout

This is a links style course with some very interesting mounding, resulting in elevated greens with some unexpected runoff and collection areas. It is similar to gateway national only a bit more interesting. Really well maintained and a good value if you can score a deal or play twilight. One odditiy was that none of the traps had been raked and most players took this to mean they didnt have to rake the traps. This resulted in your ball sitting in someones foot print in the bunker. This got to be kind of annoying.

Links in Eureka

Course was in great shape. Greens rolled well and fairways were in great condition. Staff was friendly and made sure the slow groups were keeping pace. I'm looking forward to playing it again this year.

Plan your Open Championship!

In light of The Open Championship, I selected a self-proclaimed links styled course. I like courses that have a range and nice size putting green in order to get a proper warm up. The tee boxes were in good shape. The fairways were in excellent shape. The greens left a lot to be desired. They were slow, bumpy, and full of unrepaired ball marks and foot prints. I repaired 2-4 ball marks on every green. The sand bunkers were in good shape. The course does not play like the ones in Scotland. Don't expect 30-80 yard roll outs. The clubhouse had no food except for one last hotdog. Come on! It's 5pm on a Saturday. Really! All things considered, it's a very good course. Play it in the morning and then play Pevely Farm in the afternoon.

This course is a hidden gem.

Aberdeen is the best unknown course in St. Louis. The tees, fairways, and greens are in good shape. The layout itself is fun, with a lot of variety of holes. Highly recommended for the price they charge. Also, the group in front of us was starting to move slowly around the 10th hole. The owner came out, and took control of the situation. They sped up immediately, and we finished in just under 4 hours.

Great Course, Poor Staff

Course was in great shape, staff in the pro shop left a little to be desired. Will play again just based on the course, not the staff that's for sure.

this course is one of the best links courses I have played in the area

I have not played Aberdeen in quite a few years and was pleasantly surprised at the good condition of the course and the fair level of play. I would recommend that the staff stay on top of players since the pace was slow and twosomes should be paired which was not the case especially on a Friday with a noon tee time. A refreshment cart would also add a welcome note for a July afternoon tee time.

Awesome

Great course. Can be challenging at times. The staff was awesome. The course is well maintained and the pace of play was not bad. They have a no jeans policy which helps weed out some of the players that might destroy other courses. I will be back again.

Great course. Good value. Tees and fairways in great shape. Greens show lack of divot repair.

I enjoy playing this course and it's always a challenge for a hacker like me. The water, the unforgiving rough, the well placed bunkers, and the undulating greens test every facet of one's game. The tees and fairways are in great shape. The greens need more attention to divot repair. The golf cart did not come with sand for divot repairs nor with a ball and club wash box. The men's room in the club house was not clean or dry. Although not overly convenient to St. Louis City, the course remains one of my favorites and I think it is a good value when you can get a reduced price.

Enjoyed the course

The course was in great condition. The staff was great and very accomodating. The score card would be better if it showed better discription of the holes. I hadn't played Aberdeen before and ended up in a couple of approach bunkers I didn't see on the card. Carts were equipped with GPS system and I should have paid closer attention but I was using my rangefinder when I didn't think the GPS yardage was right. I will definitely play the course again!

A great public course

Play Aberdeen. It is a great track with enough challenge for any level but, most importantly, it's a whole lotta fun! Great staff and really reasonable fees for the conditions. This will be a regular summer stop for me!

Great value in St Louis

Great condition considering recent weather. Good layout, very well maintained, friendly staff, multiple tee boxes for all player levels..

A true links-style experience - bring a wind shirt - "It's always windy at Aberdeen." Consider shorter tees if really windy. Difficulty increases exponentially with the wind.
