Course Highlights
The course layout consistently earns high praise, featuring a more open front nine that gives way to a challenging, narrow back nine with elevated greens and stunning natural scenery. Excellent value for the price, friendly staff, and a smooth pace of play make this a rewarding round.

First Time Playing

Fun and challenging golf nestled in the rolling Missouri Hills

I was incredibly surprised at the natural beauty of the course. 1st nine play much easier than back nine and slope difference is apparent. Best bet is fairway finder on back nine bc if its off the fairway its in deep hollows and wooded areas. Pace of play was great. Staff was very friendly. One of my new favorite fall courses for foliage and natural beauty.

1st time

First time ever that I have played this course and I will be back. Little bit of a haul from Chesterfield, but worth the drive. A few of the greens were a little shaggy but overall the course was in great shape.

Love this course

Course was in great shape, tee boxes, fairways, and greens. There are some challenging fairways and elevation changes. Fun, scenic, and challenging course.

Hot day

The course is in great shape. The rule about not having your own cooler is dumb when the heat index is 110, and they give you a bag of ice with your drinks. They could even go check but putting that bag in a cooler would make it last longer.

Nice. But

Would have given this 5 stars. Won't let you bring your own cooler with you. Ok, I kinda get that. But also absolutely no beverage cart at all and just a couple of spots to get water. It was 90⁰. If you're not going to allow me to bring drinks, at least provide a beverage cart. Otherwise, nice place, fun to play.

8 minute tee time intervals just don't work on a public course on the weekends!! Rack em and stack em up out there. Waited on every hole and started before 9. How can a course be so packed that early in the day??? Because of 8 minute tee times!!! Gotta go to 9 or 10 on the weekend mornings Kirk .... this is your third course I've played this Summer and had Saturday morning rounds take over 5 hours.
