First Time Playing

Lost Spur was really fun!

The course was in very good condition, considering all the rain we've had. It was busy on a Saturday but the pace of play was not slow. Got 9 holes in before the next downpour!

Can't beat the price

The course is in rough shape, but the price is right and it wasn't busy.

Great Value !!

This is a beautiful little 9 hole course which is perfect for the casual player who just wants to have some fun and not get frustrated. Sits on the river bluff and has great vistas from many of the tee boxes.

Manager has an anger problem.

We presented our Now Golf coupon at the course and the employee behind the counter took it and said there would be a charge for a cart. The coupon clearly said it was for green fees and a cart included. I ask the employee to please look at the coupon again and I said I paid for the cart already and I was not going to pay again. At this point, the mange came out of his office. He said, I do not like you talking to my people like that. I said I was only speaking in a normal voice and I already paid for the cart and a round and I was being charged for the cart again. He said “shut-up, and if you speak again I will make you leave. He then stepped out from the counter and very angrily walked up and also bumped into me and said, "You are going to pay the cart fee or get out." My golf partner then said would you please look at the coupon and you will see the cart is included. The manager then asked the employee to see the coupon. The employee gave him the coupon and the manager looked at it, then ripped it pieces, and said, pay for the cart or leave.

This course needs management

The greens were just airated with large holes and lots of med. sand not fine. No mention of it online when I booked and nothing said when I checked in. The back tee for hole #4 is poorly designed. On hole #2 I yelled up to a worker sitting in his cart to see if I could hit, he never looked up too busy texting on his phone, in fact I almost hit him with my second shot, he never saw it. On a par 3 I turned around and a guy was urinating in the adjoining fairway. I won't be back here.

I like the challenge of the hills!

The courseT- Boxes need work. The surface is mostly dirt and sand and lacks grass of any kind on several of them. I like the specials offered through association with Golf Now .Com . Especially how riding cart discounts make playing on this hilly course much more enjoyable. Particularly for us Seniors.

Great value

Probably the best 9 hole in the metro area when you consider that it is very well kept, usually plays fast and seems to me to be one of the best values I have found.

9 Hole gem South of the Mississippi

Great course in the heart of highway 55, 13, 110, 494. Minutes from the airport. I was lucky to live less than 10 minutes south from this great course and work just over ten minutes north. It became my home course once the new pro was hired. Golfnow.com has made it even easier to play with the great discounts.
