Osage National Golf Resort

Our favorite place to play at the Lake of the Ozarks

From the get-go the first tee had four groups of two waiting to tee off. Complete and utter chaos. There were multiple groups of five or six. You wouldn’t think a Wednesday morning would be a 4 1/2 hour round (for a 2 some with there own carts)! The course conditions were excellent, but the place of play was absurd. Although, a group of five was kind enough to let my twosome go through, we caught up to a five some again that made remarks of how slow the golf course was. After waiting an hour and 45 minutes to play six holes, we jumped a head and there was daylight! Not a single group in front of them. Go play old Kinderhook or the cove if you were looking for a quality, fast pace round.

the 2 fair ratings were because of the weather , we love the course

Beautiful day to be on the course for March 1st. Greens were kept well. Pace was quick even with part in the course being cart path only.

They have the River Nine which is excellent as is the Mountain 9. The Links 9 just doesn’t fit. I would not recommend playing it at all. The other two are very scenic and in great shape.

The best course I have played in Lake of the Ozarks in ten years .Always shied away because of price, but more than well worth it..

Enjoy the challenging layout of all three nines, especially elevation changes. Course is in pretty good condition, especially considering too much rain, and getting caught in some if it. Staff is always friendly & helpful. Food/beverage prices are a bit high.

Excellent value for a beautiful course. Course was in awesome shape

This was my first time out. Everybody was really friendly. The weather was cool and rainy to start off with but later cleared up. They have a nice range and putting green. At first it was cart path only, but by the time I got to about the fifth hole, the Marshall drove up and said carts can go on the fairway but to just avoid the low spots. Course was in good shape. I played River and Mountain. Both have a great variety of holes. The slope rating is 139, so be prepared to hit it straight. For those who still struggle to control their shots, they might find this a pretty tough course. I thought it played fairly as you would expect of Arnold Palmer. I had no complaints. I'm a 15 handicapper and felt if I were to come back on a another day I could get into the mid or lower 80s. It's important to play the correct tees for your ability. Anybody who plays tees that are too long for them on this course will get eaten up. I enjoyed myself. I would definitely come back and golf here again.

Tee boxes and fairways were in great shape! The greens were a little fuzzy and bumpy, however, the course gets public course play.. Rough was well cut to an appropriate height... very fair course!

Very beautiful and challenging course, but plays fair for all levels. Staff is wonderful and very attentive to your needs.

Except for the traps, the course was in very good shape. Everyone should play the Mountain 9-hole course to get a good example of golf at Lake of the Ozarks.

This is one of the top 2 courses at the Lake of the Ozarks for me. It has everything thing I want in a golf course. It is challenging but fair, has scenic views and is in great condition! While the price can be fairly expensive it is well worth it to play a fun course that is in great conditions!

Challenging course, I enjoyed the different styles from 1 9 holes the next.

Played River / Links courses. Both challenging and require shot making. Pro Shop personnel really nice. Not really organized at cart station as had to ask for a cart from attendant after standing there for 5 minutes.. No real indication who to approach to get started. Pace was good. Course in great shape. Would like to play the mountain with a Golfnow Hot Deal but does not seem to be an option. No issues using Golfnow tee time process which is great! We will play again in the future.

Great condition, greens have a good pace. Played river/mountain loop.
