About
Vulcan Golf & Country Club sits on the outskirts of the town. The layout sprawls across gently rolling terrain accented with stands of mature trees. The course measures to just over 6,300 yards from the back tees. It's gentle enough for beginners but also great for more advanced players who are looking for a casual round that can be played in less than four hours. The golf course starts with a gentle front nine with water only coming into play twice. Don't be lulled into a sense of comfort though, the course becomes progressively more difficult, culminating with the signature 18th hole. Water appears again on six holes on Vulcan's back nine, including on the final par-3 hole. Water borders the entire left side and there are also a slew of bunkers protecting the large green.

Good track
Front nine is in great shape. Back nine is newer but in good shape
good improvements from a few years ago
Course is very good to play on. Needs bigger putting green. No chipping area. Driving range is quite far away from club house.
Great food in restaurant and great prices. Bathrooms kept very clean. Friendly staff.
Very good course
The Vulcan golf course is a great example of a small town course. Friendly staff help to create a good experience.
Great course, bad attitude
This course has 2 distinct personalities; the old front nine is beautifully treed with attractive flower beds. The trees are in play on almost every hole. The newer back nine is a wide open prairie experience. The biggest challenges are the sand and water features, and some deep rough.
I have played this course several times, and always enjoy its challenges and the variety of skills needed to score.
The staff are a different matter. They are always abrupt, never very friendly, and even rude. This time, I had booked my tee time through GolfNow, and the reservation clearly included the use of a cart. The person in the pro shop, also a mediocre server in the restaurant/lounge, insisted that it did not, until I produced the e-mail on my phone stating so. She merely grunted, and did not apologize or acknowledge her error.
I say, eat elsewhere and take your own beverages, and make sure you bring documentation for your reservation!
