Mystic Oak Golf Course in Waterloo has a diverse layout that seems to play a little differently each time you're on it. The layout features long, winding fairways and gently sloping greens, which are framed by a slew of strategically placed bunkers. There are also many water hazards that come into play throughout the golf course. The gently rolling terrain has subtle ups and downs that provide tricky uneven lies. The back nine is uniquely divided into three par 3s, par 4s, and par 5s each. The golf course will test your short-game skills but the lengthy par 5s offer driving opportunities for long hitters as well. Mystic Oak Golf Course is player friendly enough for a wide range of skill levels but you may be surprised to find yourself using all the clubs in your bag.

The difference between 2 years ago and now is amazing. The greens are in incredible shape and the fairways are filling in nicely.

Course has made an awesome comeback

In past years Mystic Oak was hot or miss in all categories. This place has gone above and beyond and has done a complete 180 from the food to the course conditions, especially the greens. Would highly recommend playing here.

January Golf in STL

Mystic Oak is a good alternative if you just need to get out and hit the sticks. Course is short, and the current fairways are rough. Greens were furry, but rolled true. But, it is January in St. Louis, so I will forgive these for now. If I get a chance to replay, I will also re-rate.

Greens in great shape

We have played here a few times over the last 5 or 6 years last time we were here greens were pretty chewed up. Pleasantly surprised to find the greens in Great Shape !!!! A few holes had some ground under repair in the fairways but not bad and able to play around all of it. The staff in the pro shop and in the restaurant and the greens keeper (that we ran into on the course) all are very friendly and helpful !!! A great deal !!!! We will be back !!!! Thanks !!!

Mystic Oak

Course was in very good condition. A challenging course with water on 16 of 18 holes. There were a couple of holes that presented special challenges. Altogether a fun course to play.

In great shape!

We played here last year & there were quite a few fairways & greens in really bad shape. We called & was told that they were fixed so we decided to play here. I'm glad we did. We just played here July 12 & the course is in great shape now. I'm really glad because it is a really nice course. I would recommend playing here now.

Much improved

Played last summer and the course was burned out. Second time playing this year and it continues to improve.

Tee boxes and fairways are greening up and in pretty good shape. Greens are very shaggy and slow, but rolling true with few bare spots.
