Tannenbaum… if you’re in the area

Some nice vistas, friendly staff, only four groups out so the pace of play was great.

Course was in mediocre condition, not much grass on the back tee boxes, some greens were fast some were not…

Hole 12, a downhill par three is 14 yards deep and 20-yards wide and may be the most difficult hole with no where to bail out. Pretty, but unfair.

Four of five very demanding tee shots that leave you 25-30-yards wide if you want to hit driver, not really following the 50-yard rule of canopy of the trees to the canopy of the trees…

Did finish birdie, Eagle so left with good vibes!

Recommend trying the pulled pork with slaw and. Spices.

Fun little country course if you’re passing through…

Great Course

Chilly 50 degree day with clouds. However, for late February the course was in great shape an so much fun to play. There is so many cerebral moments that challenge what you want to do and what you need to do on this course. Club house was awesome and friendly. Great food and drinks at mulligans.

1st time out

1st time out in 2023... the course needs a little clean up from the harsh winter, but greens rolled true... always a treat to play.

new carts

The club has new golf carts that worked well. It was cart path only due to wet course conditions. A few of the greens are bald around the edges and some were spotty. A few of the tee boxes are really rough. We encountered a grounds keeper that was mowing one of the greens, seen us waiting and refused to let us play through until he was finished. We had to wait about 10 minutes for him. Then he gave us a nasty look as he drove by us.

Hard course but fun

The greens are in great condition and the staff is super friendly. The value for the hot deal is unbeatable. I do recommend stocking up on balls because this course is super narrow and pretty challenging.

If you are looking for a fun course near Heber, AR I would highly recommend this course.

Great Course

If not for all the ball marks and old hole indentations, the greens on this course would be awesome. The course is great.

Great Course!

Sister Course to Tannenbaum - we played both and enjoyed both! Mountain Ranch greens have so many unrepaired ball marks on the greens players should be embarrassed (including locals). We were behind the local men’s group (8 4&5-somes) causing very slow play. Old cup holes were also a cause of disrepair on the greens. These greens could be awesome otherwise. The only bathroom on the course is filthy. However, we did enjoy our round at Mountain Ranch GC.
