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.

Pace of play

Need to leave more than 8 minutes between groups. We were waiting up to 20 min to tee off on several holes. Watched several groups before and after us stop early due to pace of play.

The course has many elevation changes. We played in early March so we thought the course was in good shape for this time of year. The greens were good but a little on the slow side. We did enjoy the challenge and will play this course again.

Christmas Eve

My brother and I snagged a last minute tee time on Christmas eve. The guy in the clubhouse couldn't have been nicer. Also seems like management is spending some money on upgrades to the course. This course is tough. Lots of elevation changes with some long difficult approach shots to elevated greens. The views are some of the best around. Worth the drive.

Hidden Gem

Beautiful golf course that is a little bit of a challenge. Plenty of elevation and some tight fairways too, but loved all of the well maintained, 18 holes. No houses nearby to golf through, just Missouri mountains and nature. Worth the drive, great price by today's standards as well with nice and friendly staff. I will be back many times over that's for sure.

Hidden Gem

This is a phenomenal course. It’s an hour drive for me one way but I’ve played it 3 times in the last month if that tells you how good this course is for the money. Greens are on par with courses double the cost. Great hole designs and very friendly to people of all skill levels. 10/10
