The course has interesting holes that will challenge most folders
I liked this course a lot. The t boxes were level, the fairways ( zoysia ) set the ball up nicely, and the greens were fast. Hole Number 6 will challenge the best golfer. Very nice 9 hole course.
best place for a practice round!
Ruth Park is a a mature, well maintained course. Not very long but the lay out has challenges.
Easy course to play.
Course is in great shape. Not busy and easy to get in nine walking under two hours.
this course is best 9 hole course that I have played in the area

Outstanding public course!
From my first time until my last, I enjoyed playing this course. The greens were in excellent shape and the fairways very well maintained. The course offers an enjoyable challenge to golfers of all levels. I look forward to playing the course again.
Well maintained
In the past few years Ruth Park has become one of the nicest municipal courses in the area.
Good course conditioning, not expensive, gets crowded
Ruth Park is a great layout that's well maintained. It's in a location that's easily accessible to both STL City and County residents. There's no bunkers or large water hazards, but it's still challenging with some tight driving holes and lots of uneven lies. It does get crowded, but the staff works hard to maintain tee time intervals and I almost always get through 9 holes in 2:15 (or less# walking. A couple of downsides: 1.) they have leagues throughout the week and it's almost impossible to get a tee time Mon-Fri in the after work hours. 2.) If I book through golfnow there's about a 50% chance I'll be criticized by the counter personnel for not booking through the pro shop. 3.) They always pair up groups during the busier times - which is positive in that I've met and played with some great people and it keeps up pace of play, but I've also seen my share of mentally unstable folks #i.e. last year I was put into a random foursome where one player threw his putter at someone else in the group who he claimed "was stepping in his line and working against him to sabotage his score"). Also I played last weekend, and was berated by a guy on the practice green who said that I had a lot of nerve "putting to 'his' hole, in his section of the green".
Avoid the weirdos and I'd say you've got a good chance of having a really enjoyable round.
Great place to play 9 holes
They have done a wonderful job with the course. The fairways and greens are in very good shape. Its a great way to spend 2 hrs on a sunny afternoon.
Good 9-hole course
My favorite 9, great mid-county location, can always play for $20 or less. Simple course but greens and fairways are in very good shape. Holes #3 and #5 are truly fun and challenging given the hills and sloped greens.
Easy to play about a 2-hour nine most weekdays. Weekends can be a bit slower as you occassionaly you get some beginners, but the Marshals do a good job if there is a problem.
Great Deal and Great Golf
I enjoy Ruth Park. It is wide open for even the most novice of golfers and the course is in great shape. It is a 9 hole course nestled in a neighborhood in University City where you wouldn’t think a golf course would be located. The course is very straightforward with maybe two dogleg holes on it. It has a nice little diner area and mini-pro-shop…something you wouldn’t expect from this area. The price simply could not be beat for this area. I walked all nine for $8.00 but even with a cart, it is very inexpensive. I would highly recommend this 9-hole course over any other course in the St. Louis/Creve Coeur area.
I had been wanting to play this course all year. We walked 9 holes and had a great time. Good luck finding your ball if it goes OTB.
great course, great deal, great day for golf had a good time
Best value in stl for nine holes
Corse is certrally located has narrow fairways good overall condition.
this is a fine course
this is a fine course and have good feature. it is near by and convenient. .
Nice little nine hole course
Nice nine hole course I use to get reps in. Greens are in good shape. Not too complicated.
Excellent course with speedy play
Ruth Park is a bargain as the course is well maintained and plays quickly. A great course for beginners since there is no water and little sand. My kids loved it and wanted to play another 9!
NIce, quiet round of golf
Simple to play course. Not a huge amount of hazards so very easy for a beginner to play. Very quiet during the day so not having to worry about holding others up, and being held up.
course was in very good shape.
Other than a couple groups slowing it down, it was a great value. Overall in great shape.
various hills to contend with
had a great day of golf with family and met and played with some new golfers. Course was really busy and the game flowed very nice. Also noticed there were no sand traps
Perfect place to get 9 holes in quickly
Best 9 hole course in the area. Something happened to parts of the 7th and 9th Fairways but the staff is working on getting it back in shape.
Great walking course, good speed of play, no sand.
Fairways and greens are great, distance is fine, my favorite walking course.
