It was a great experience for me most of the time because the second shots at the green were mostly open. The landing zones had less of a tree population than courses I am used to. I probably saved 3-4 strokes there already. It was the first time that I played there and hope to play there at least once a year. Great course!

Great Coarse

Great course, unfortunately we've experienced an abundance of rain leading up to this golf outing so the coarse was wetter than normal. Still enjoyed the outing and will return! One of the best courses in the Northland!!

Decent course

They let way too many people play for a Saturday. We had 2 people ahead of us and 2 people behind us waiting at all times. That was disappointing. If they could get the pace of play under control I would give it 5 stars. Staff members told us it is twice as fast during the week, maybe avoid weekends here.

One of the best courses in the KC Area

Shoal Creek is almost always in great shape and early February was no exception. Great layout that is challenging but fair. Excellent greens both in contour and conditioning. A true KC gem that matches with most private courses in the area. This is the place I take my out of town golf buddies. Got to play it if you haven't. Only thing I'd like to see is a walking rate, though there are some long walks between tees and greens

A top KC course

Great course variance from tight to wide fairways, advise staying out of the deep 3-4 inch rough here, and ball positioning on greens a must. Considering this course highly for our club membership.

Great Course for Price

I've played Shoal twice in the past month. It is a beautiful course, challenging and fun to play. It definitely tests your shot making abilities. Only complaint was carts weren't allowed on fairway and some of the staff members were pretty cranky.
