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.

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.

Fun course

It’s early May and the fairway grass is still coming in but the greens are in great shape. The tee boxes are a little rough, but very playable. The course is making a lot of improvements and is looking great.

The staff is super friendly. I’m looking forward to playing here again this season.

Perfectly solid midwest course

A nice little challenge, sort of Links-ish style golf with blind water and some small hills/mounds that lead to some blind shots.
