Golf Advisor: Top 25 Most Improved U.S. Golf Courses (2022 #16)
Reviews
Paid $20 on a Saturday afternoon
You get what you pay for. Greens were pretty good, fairways not great. I played this course 25 years ago and it was much nicer. But hey, I paid $20 for 18 and a cart.
Needs more work but getting there
Staff were a highlight. Superintendent was extremely nice and trusted us to play 90deg rule despite some water on the course.
Greens were in good shape and putted true, but you need to be mindful of pitch marks in your line. Fairways were in good condition, as were the tees.
Bunkers were unplayable, not maintained, overgrown.
Layout was interesting in places, otherwise kind of boring.
Prairies review
The first 9 holes are laid out well, the last nine follow the power lines and are pretty bare and flat. The greens were in decent shape but the fairways not so much. I was surprised with how wet the course was that it wasn’t Cart path only.
They also need a course monitor as the 4some in front of us was holding up everyone. For no reason.
Great Course
Affordable fees and only 10 minutes from St. Louis I have no complaints

Course was pretty good. Finding the next hole was a little difficult at times. The tees were uneven in areas
Blind shots
Too many ponds not marked with red stakes. They gave up on maintaining sand bunkers. If you can't maintain them fill them in and regarded that area. Way too many blind shots off the tee to be enjoyable with no tips or notes on scorecard. If they invested some money it could be a decent public course...
Work in Progress with Potential
Friendliest staff I've seen on a golf course. They are working hard to bring this course to a premier level. I wouldn't recommend the course to a friend yet, but I will check them out in the future to see how far they get in their improvements.
Good course is challenging. Very firm greens hard to get ball to sit. Dry fairways but good course for price.
The Prairies Staff
The entire Staff at this club has been nothing short of incredible every time I go. The course itself also is in best shape it’s been all year! Greens are looking good. Would recommend this course. Great value, great people.
Ok course
If you’re looking for a cheap round of golf and not worried about losing a few balls this is a decent course.
It’s tough distinguishing between the roughs and the fairways, as the grass is about the same length.
Greens were nice, but super fast even after a downpour of rain. Price was right though and staff was super friendly. All in all I’d rather play a better course and pay a little extra.
REVIEW
THE GREENS WERE EXCELLENT. THE FAIRWAYS NEEDED SOME WORK. OVERALL IT WAS GOOD FOR THE PRICE. THE FOLKS THAT WORKED AT THE GOLF COURSE WERE VERY FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL.
Not the greatest Conditions
The greens were very hard and difficult to hold the ball when hitting approach shots. The fairways didn't have very much grass to hit off of. The course needs some rain and a little TLC. I suspect in another month the conditions will improve. I would recommend this course in June.
