About
Far Oaks Golf Club in Caseyville has a unique layout with a front nine that is designed in a Scottish-links style and a back nine that plays through rolling woodlands. The links holes are framed with native prairie grasses and wildflowers while mature oak trees line the fairways on the back nine. There are plenty of elevation changes throughout the golf course, making it hard to find a flat lie. Mounding and strategically placed bunkers lurk treacherously along the greensides and there are also several holes with water. Far Oaks Golf Club is a challenging course that demands accuracy, which is most apparent on the 10th hole. Although it's not the longest par 4 on the course, it is still challenging thanks to a slew of bunkers that border both sides of the green.

Great Course
Course is in great condition. Pace of play was slow but got a great deal on the greens fees at GolfNow.
good course
Above a average course. Will come on a good offer.
Awesome Course
We began our round at 4:00pm, and experienced a nicely paced round. The course was in excellent condition and it plays a little long but enjoyable. I played from the women's tee and only golf about once ever six to eight weeks so I was excited to walk away with 86. I will certainly play this course again.
Sorry we didn't take advantage of the 19th hole.
Finally sand
Nice course. Finally putting some sand in the traps, good work! Efforts to get the course into shape are really paying off.
Great track
Everything about this facility is A+. this is not a big hitters course. More of a thinking mans course. Highly recommend.
Slow - Slow - Slow
Need a ranger on the course to manage team play for a round of golf!!! Several areas around the green were in poor shape and a couple "under construction".
Another good round at Far Oaks
Enjoyed another round today at Far Oaks. The course was in great shape and despite the fact it was Father's Day, the pace of play was excellent. We waited to tee off maybe twice all day.
The greens and fairways were in very good condition.
Hole #16 is awesome!!!!!!!!
Course was great, staff was great can't wait to play it again
The course was in great shape
I enjoyed every minute of playing. The staff was very gracious and the course was beautiful
The BEST fairways
Without a doubt the best fairways I have played on in 3 years (so good it felt like you could club down by 1/2 club). Some blind holes off the tee but you could follow the scorecard layout, other than that the course was in front of you. A DEFINITE must to play!!
nice course
Very nice course that is simple but difficult. Golf now describes the carts having gps but they don't. Can't wait to play again when it isn't raining.
Late Day Rain
New carts are really nice. Course rounding into shape after hard winter.
Slow play due to cup matches in front of us...you're not on tour, pick up the pace.
beautiful as usual
Course is always in great condition. Worth the price, just to costly for my blood. Thats why I always schedule tee times through golfnow.com. usually pay between 35-40$ though the site. 60-70 $ is regular price.
Excellent course but play was so delayed.
I booked this course by golfnow.com, with good hot deal pricing despite driving 1 hour from my home.I have played at this course,liking very much. On this playing day there was a group of tournament ,causing almost 1 hour delaying to play.But course was well maintained and excellent condition, I am a senior and played at white tee box, a little challenging to me but overall I and my wife enjoyed plaing other than initial frustration from delay. Fee was very excellent to course. Recommend to play at this course.
great course
This course was in great condition, challenging but fairly open. The pace was a little bit on the slow side, there were several foursomes around the same time, and I could see a couple people and those foursomes hitting multiple balls. but other than that we had a fantastic time. I would highly recommend this course.
Tough but fair
Great layout. Has both challenging holes and birdie opportunities. Our fourth player was late as usual but the starter was nice and accommodated us.
Great course
All holes are fair, you do your part, you'll do well. Could use restrooms on course though
One of the finest golf courses in the area. Ideal for the mid-handicappers!
Far Oaks has been one of my favorite courses to play. Tee boxes, fairways and greens are always in great shape. Enough doglegs to keep it interesting throughout the round.
