Rating 72.8

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.

Wait at least a week

They have had a tremendous amount of rain and the greens are still recovering from punching. The course was a swamp, the rough is 6" thick due to rain and the greens are bumpy and very slow as they haven't come back yet after aerating. I would wait at least a week if you want better conditions.

Wow

The Marshall at a local course recommended this place. He was right!! This course is one of the nicest I’ve ever played, and very reasonable green fees. Must play track if you are in the area.

Great Course, Great Rate

Annbrair is the best course in the metro St. Louis area. With a senior rate in the low 40's - you can beat this. The course has great design and playable for all handicaps.

We have had a warm February-March and the dormant zoysia grass has a tint of green to it already.

They will probably aerate the greens after the Women's Missouri Valley Conference Golf Championships, which are being head at Annbrair for the second straight year. April 14-16, 2024.
