Annbriar Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
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.

My favorite
This is definitely my favorite course in the St Louis area. I haven't played them all, but I have played some expensive rounds and they are nowhere near the quality of Annbriar. I can't wait to get back out there.
Best public course in St. Louis MO area
This public course is the best public course in the area and has to be one of the best in the country. The layout, price, and clubhouse are top notch.

Outstanding December conditions
On one of the warmest December days I can ever remember playing golf, we found a last minute tee time at Annbriar. The conditions are usually some of the very best in the area, and for early winter, the course could not be in much better shape. Special kudos to the grounds crew as the greens were excellent.
The place was packed and that led to a pretty long round of almost five hours. Our issue was that there seemed to be a lot of twosomes ahead of us. If the course had grouped them into foursomes, it would have helped our pace of play.
The front nine is pretty open and easier than the back nine which is quite challenging with many forced carries. In addition, the course has more elevation changes than you might think for the middle of SW Illinois. Plus, it likely would be a difficult course to walk.
If you’ve never played Annbriar, you really should. Not sure if it is the area’s best course but it is on the very short list of them. I’m already looking forward to my next round there.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Annbriar Golf Course.
