Type Public
Par 72
Length 7050 yards
Slope 136
Rating 73.6

Quail Creek Golf Club is tied for being the most difficult public course in the St. Louis area. Designed by Hale Irwin, the course is laid across rolling hills laced with meandering streams. The layout requires accuracy with narrow fairways and hard-to-read greens. Water hazards come into play frequently as do trees and bunkers. It is a formidable test for any skill level. Most of the holes have a risk-reward element, making the course more accessible by placing an emphasis on strategy over strength. One of the most memorable holes is the par-5 ninth. It will favor golfers who successfully cut the corner, making it possible to reach the green in two. This tricky hole demands accurate mid-iron play. Quail Creek Golf Club finishes with an interesting par 4 that has water along the left side of both the fairway and green.

Getting a little rough out there

Lots of burned greens and concrete tee boxes. I am not expecting a whole lot at this price point but the course has taken a beating just over these last couple of weeks. Still super fun layout which has me coming back for more.

Surprised it has such a low rating

I think this course is beautiful for $25. Bring a lot of balls. The carts paths aren’t that bad, I have rode on worse. It was a good time!

It's a good course for what it is. Really tight fairways that punishes wild swings. Greens were in fair condition. Some burned spots but overall an enjoyable round of golf.

Looks good

Course in decent shape. Several improvements made to course in the way of using links like tall grasses and rough. A couple greens had brown patches, but otherwise the fairways, t box, and greens were in good shap. I have always liked the lay out
