I Recommend This Course
One of my top 3 in SW St Louis area
Overall course is in very good condition. Only thing that could use some attention are the bunkers. They are overdue to have additional sand added. Some are so compacted that it’s like playing off hard pan. I guess the lesson is stay out of the bunkers. A very enjoyable course.

GREAT COURSE
I have been casually golfing for about 10 years, between Memphis, Florida, and STL mostly and this is by far the nicest course for the best price ive played. I paid $55 to ride 18 here which seems like a steal compared to what I have paid elsewhere.
The course conditions were excellent and the courses are very challenging but beautiful. The elevation changes make it unique and fun to play.
The older staff kind of gives the typical country club pretentious attitude but oh well you don't interact with them much outside the clubhouse.

Fun December outing.
Temps low 50s but sunny. Cart path only as we’ve had a lot of rain. Course in relatively good condition but soggy. Nice to still play late in season..
