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.

Great Course and value after noon
First time playing here and very impressed. Staff were all very friendly. Enjoyed the layout, especially the back nine. Highly recommend.
Hi Sandoman. We appreciate you leaving a review and rating us. We will inform the entire team, so they know their hard work is paying off. We look forward to having you back!
Near Perfection
There is nothing bad to say about Annbriar. They understand how to perfectly balance down-home country personal service with first-class golf layout and manicured conditions.
My only additional comment is a personal wish; that they would increase the speed of the greens. Don't get me wrong. Their greens are VERY putt-able. The ball rolls true and on-line. A little more speed would be welcome so we can enjoy the challenge of the contours and subtleties, though.
I'm guessing asking for faster greens is like asking for a different frame around the Mona Lisa. Annbriar is a spectacular and A++ public golf experience...period. Play it and treat yourself!
stevepona, thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Annbriar Golf Course.
Wow, we are so happy you enjoyed your round, Nelson8258617! We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Hello, Jim7118509. Thank you for your 5-star rating! Please book another round with us soon.
Top Notch Conditioning!!!
This is a visually beautiful course with not a bad hole on it. Conditioning is high end private club level. Front 9 is open and rolling and back 9 is beautiful and more hilly. If I'm going to "treat" myself to a higher end round of golf, this is where I'm going.
Wow, we are so happy you enjoyed your round with us! We look forward to seeing you again soon. Thanks for choosing Annbriar Golf Course.
Rain check
The weather prediction was for 90% chance of rain. Rescheduled for next month.
Thanks for taking the time leave us a review. We're sorry you didn't get to enjoy your round because of the rain, but are looking forward to seeing you again when the weather is better! Thanks for choosing Annbriar Golf Course.

more drinking water needed
Hello, tniederkorn. Thank you for your 5-star rating! Please book another round with us soon.
A long drive from St. Louis county, but worth it!
There are many reasons annbriar is one of our favorite courses. The wide open fairways, accurate distances, and above all course maintenance is superior. It’s always a privilege and a joy to play this course!
Wow, we are so happy you enjoyed your round! We look forward to seeing you again soon. Thanks for playing Annbriar Golf Course!
Poa Annua Taking Over Thier Greens
Annbriar is my favorite course in the St. Louis Metro area. What was disappointing to see were the greens being taken over by the poa annua grasses. Not sure what can be done about this, but, there is nothing better than the original bent grass greens. With poa annuu, your putts are slower, break less and your putt can move back and forth because of the graininess of this grass.
Still go play Annbriar - such a great course. Just be aware the greens are not like they used to be.
Thank you for taking the time to review us lcbgolf. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. Annbriar Golf Course thanks you!
Hello, tniederkorn. Thank you for your 5-star rating! Please book another round with us soon.
Great Course . . . But for the Flying Bugs
We played this course for the first time and loved the layout and challenge. But even thought it was very windy, the flying bugs were unbearable. And if you hit it into a bunker, it was like you were lunch.
We really like this course, but until they get a handle on the flying bugs, we wouldn't play it again. Bugs in your eyes, ears, nose and mouth make playing golf really unpleasant.

Great day, great price , excellent pace of play. Lush fairways, smooth tight greens. Can’t get much better than that.
Had to wait too long for lunch special after the round.

Perfect for The Time of Year
This course is always in great shape, but it looks exceptional for this time of year. Cart path only, and it was pretty damp and soft on the fairways.
Greens have been aerated and sanded, yet they roll well.
It was a tough day for cart path and senior golfers.
