Where are the golfers?

Had a 1:30 tee time on Easter Sunday and when we pulled in the parking lot, it was virtually deserted. Wondered what was wrong with the golf course??? My wife and I got right on and found that this was a heck of a golf course. Fairways and greens were very good and the only thing bad about the course was that one fairway bunker I was in on 17 had netting coming up out of the sand and my club head got tangled up in the the netting. It was a very diffficult course but I should have played the silver tees rather than the blues (6700). When we finished, there still weren’t many cars in the parking lot. I am guessing that since it was Easter and the cost on the expensive side was the reason for very little play..

Hills & Slopes

Tough course, hills & slopes on almost every hole. Water is in play at least half the time. Wildlife all around. It’s beautiful in Branson!

Not worth the premium price

74 degrees, beautifil day for golf, expected a great experience, but, bar & grill not open, no beverage cart on the course, bunkers not raked, pro staff seemed like he didn't really want to be there. Course is very difficult, not for the mid/high handicappers, not worth the $100 I dropped for this course, especially in the off season. Would not recommend.

Course was very wet due to the weather… But was still very enjoyable to play. I would love to come back here and play the same course when the weather is better. If you’re in Branson would say this is a definite course you should play

Bring your "A" game - It is not 50/50

This review will have 2 parts, and the 2nd Part is the one I truly want you to read.

Part 1:
• Course – Difficult, but fun
• Greens – So close to perfect and fast
• Clubhouse – Excellent
• Pro Shop – Quick check in, friendly staff
• Snack Bar/Restaurant – Comfortable, quick, polite
• Beverage Cart – 3 times during the round
• Conclusion – Book and play this course…..bring you're “A” game

Part 2

If you scroll down through the reviews, you will find one titled 50/50 from 7/6/22. Of all the reviews on GolfNow and Google, this has to be one of the most ridiculous and unfair to date.

• Clubhouse was grandiose, beautiful, and picture worthy
• Bathrooms were not fancy, but not filthy
• Restaurant was comfortable and food was good
o Beverage cart made 3 circuits during our round, fully stocked and appropriately dressed
• Staff was friendly and efficient
o In order to find out names, we introduced ourselves
• The insulting comments about the beverage cart, restaurant and pro shop were unfair and rude
o It is a public course with an easy bag drop off….Stop It

This was not a review but a mean spirited write up with shots taken at the staff that was unwarranted. It was the first time my group has been to Branson to play golf and today’s round was worth the price we paid and the level of service was excellent along with friendly. I WOULD HIGHLY recommend you play this course, just make sure you hit it straight.

Beautiful and scenic layout.

This course has several holes where you take a picture before teeing off. As scenic a layout as I have played. It was in decent condition, but it has been dry in the area and that showed to some extent. The greens had been aerated a couple of weeks ago and we’re still a little bumpy and slaw as a result. The couple we were paired up with says conditions have deteriorated over the past couple of years. The greens were large and the green complexes were difficult. Quite a few of the greens required you to carry obstacles to get on, which was difficult for both ladies in the group.

Beautiful course

This course was absolutely beautiful. Greens are really nice and fast!! Rough is hard to hit out of so stay in the fairway. Fairways were awesome. I highly recommend this course in Branson. The staff was super friendly and even told me where to try and hit the ball!!
