Annbriar Golf Course in Waterloo is one of the top 10 golf courses in Illinois. The course was built on rolling farmland covered with native wild grasses. The layout eases you into the challenges with a links-style front nine that is less demanding than the back nine. The fairways are invitingly wide but if you miss them, you'll be faced with thick fescue. The back nine takes advantage of the surprisingly undulating terrain, which is unexpected since just across the river the land is almost totally flat. Annbriar's signature hole, the par-4 11th, was voted the best hole in the St. Louis area. From an elevated tee, golfers enjoy a stunning view as they play down into a valley. This hole is also the no. 1 handicap hole on Annbriar Golf Course.

Sloooooest round ever!!!!!

This was the slowest round of golf I’ve ever played. Teed off at 1:15 p.m.,at 5:05 we sat waiting to tee off at 14 for over 15 minutes. These guys wouldn’t clear the green until all 4 balls were putted in the cup! No marshall’s anywhere and not only were these guys slow but there was a 5 some group ahead of them! We didn’t finish the round and left with 4 to go. The only positive was the round was $29.00. It will be a heck of a long time before we come back, if ever. For such a premier course to let this go on is ridiculous.

Great Course but far drive

This course is great. In excellent condition greens roll true. But this course is really far from St. Louis and you shouldn’t drive out to it. You have to drive through East Louis and you could get car jacked. Go play Forest Park or something else. Not worth the risk maybe just stay home.

Conditions are excellent as always

But

I’m not sure why they allow multiple 5somes to play on Sunday of a holiday weekend. You can say “ it’s ok as long as they keep moving”, but we waited on almost every tee on the front and total round over 4.5 hours in hot humid St. Louis weather is a slog.

Off the beaten path gem!!

The course was very well taken care of. Had some slow play, but not so bad I wouldn’t play again. It would’ve been nice to have some water available on the course but let’s be honest if that’s the worst I got we’re in good shape. Loved it!!
