One of my favorite courses. Good fairways, fast greens, lots of elevation changes, lots of different hole layouts. Like the mix of holes. Nos 11, 12, and 13 require carefully controlled shots or it's a bogey, or worse.

Condition is usually excellent, bent grass fairways and greens. Slope should probably be higher with ample water hazards and significant elevation changes. I play it about 10 times a season.

Prairie Isle Review

Course was in great condition for not having rain lately. The issue I had, was the course had a 90 degree rule in play and the cart was not making any marks in the fairway. Green's were in great condition and were very challenging with their slope. Highly recommend playing here!
