Annbriar Golf Course
About
Annbriar Golf Course in Waterloo is one of the top 10 golf courses in Illinois. The course was built on rolling farmland covered with native wild grasses. The layout eases you into the challenges with a links-style front nine that is less demanding than the back nine. The fairways are invitingly wide but if you miss them, you'll be faced with thick fescue. The back nine takes advantage of the surprisingly undulating terrain, which is unexpected since just across the river the land is almost totally flat. Annbriar's signature hole, the par-4 11th, was voted the best hole in the St. Louis area. From an elevated tee, golfers enjoy a stunning view as they play down into a valley. This hole is also the no. 1 handicap hole on Annbriar Golf Course.

Always an amazing experience
This is one of the few courses where you get that country club feel, with a public course. Can’t say enough great things about this course.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Annbriar Golf Course.

A stl must play
This is st Louis’ finest public access course without a doubt. Currently the course couldn’t be in better shape. Both fairways and greens are in outstanding shape. It’s like playing a primo resort course for 1/4 of the $$.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Annbriar Golf Course.
A little disappointed
We had nice weather on a day that was supposed to be near 100'. That being said, their was hardly any drinking water to be found on the course. Nothing on the front. And only one cooler on the back (hole 11?). When we made the turn, there was ice, but the water dispenser was not working. And the water jug was empty. Just dumb. Apparently, they hosted a junior PGA event before our T-time. These players tore up the course. Lots of deep divots. Plus unfixed ball marks on the greens. Conditions on the front side just fair. Weeds starting to mix into the rich zoisia. Back nine, much better. For the course that is supposed to be the best public course in the St Louis area, I have to say, I'm a little disappointed. They've let their standards slip. Now, about the pace of play. We played in 4 hours flat. But we had 2 different groups of 2 hit into us. Besides that. A fun day with the bud's. Caught a good price through Golfnow and had a nice lunch before the round. C'mon Annbriar. Get your title and standards back.
We apologize for the inconvenience you experienced during your recent visit to our golf course. We appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration to improve our amenities and maintain our standards. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
Great place to play
Annbriar is a great place to play - greens fees are reasonable and the course is normally in great shape. I like the hybrid options for tees that the scorecard has that combines using white and blue tees to get a distance in between playing a single set of tees (there are multiple options for this). The Pro Shop and Bar are both well stocked. All around a solid choice.

Wonderful golf course in amazing condition.
I have played this course off and on for the last 10 years plus. In my opinion, the course is in the best condition i have ever seen it in. The tee to green conditions are as good as the high end resort courses I have played . The only downside I see is even on week days the wait on each tee prevents you from being able to get any type of rhythm in your play.

No starter on first tee
The first tee is a nightmare! I play this course several times a year and pace of play is abysmal every time and it starts on the first hole. There isn’t a starter, groups go off late or choose to play separately even if they should be paired together. All they need to do is have a real starter. The bag boys have no clue whats going on and they the closest thing to a starter. The course is fun and always in great shape but not having a starter sitting at the first hole makes the rounds drag on. This course is touted as one of the best courses in illinois but it is run worse than a 9 hole muni.

Fantastic
Hadn't played Annbriar in about 10 years and boy did I miss it. You really can't beat this place on the quality and value for the money. Coming from Texas, I can tell you that this place is a steal. Pristine fairways, greens that roll true all day long, views, and a challenging layout for any golfer. When I'm in town again, I'll definitely be back here. Keep up the great work guys, it really shows!

Best golf course in the Midwest
Have played this course many, many times and it just gets better with age. The front nine allows one to ease into the round with forgiving fairways. The back nine is through the woods with elevated tee boxes and stunning views. Few courses provide this much value and fun for a very affordable price. Special place!

Awesome Weekend Getaway
My wife and I decided to basically live at Annbriar for two days. By that I mean we ate heartily for lunch at Smokehouse restaurant before an afternoon round and had a fabulous breakfast before playing the next day. Food was great and reasonably priced. Annbriar is truly a gem. The 5 hour round on holiday weekend was acceptable when we considered the awesome views on EVERY hole. Each unique in their own way. Tees are fair and challenging for all players. Be prapared for walking as cart paths do not stop close to greens and cart direction signs sometimes are placed way out in front of greens.. Love the strategy involved with the course. Will we be back? You betcha! First time players will definitely put this on their repeat list.
