Links course, crowded but nice

Much more challenging than it used to be in AAA days. Flowed well until the lady 3 holes, got pretty backed up. Great views of CWE, also great in that you can bring your kid for free and they can play. They have junior tees also

Not great markings but my 9 year liked playing with me in her first round. Love the kid friendliness, the carts need help- many torn and no videos or other things you get in most courses. A nice city course, you pay for the area but it’s fun!

Prepare to wait

Played The Highlands on Sunday morning. We waited on every tee box. Five-some ahead of us. They were screwing around and were never “ready”. Three hours(nearly) for nine holes. Staff is friendly . Tee boxes are some of the worst in STL. To be fair the greens were nice, fairways in good shape. This is a fun little track. Need marshals on the course. Would be nice to have a roaming refreshment cart as well.

Fun 9

Fun 9 that forces creativity with clubs. Fairways and greens in good shape but rough swallowed some balls that should be fine. Enjoyed the short game practice area after the round as well. Will return maybe today

Fun layout

Really liiked this course. Very nice for senior women. It’s hard to assess conditions since it was fall but will try again in spring. Greens were still nice even in mid November.

Fun Friday at Highlands-Forest Park

Wife and I played on a Friday and had lunch at the cafe. We sat outside and enjoyed the weather while watching golfers playing the final hole.

View from cafe terrace was beautiful and lunch was very good. It rounded out the day with a terrific experience.
