Eldon Golf

Course was good for April. However, it was 80 degrees and there was no drinking water on the course.

Amazing golf course

Fairways and greens were in great shape. Got out early and didn't see a soul until making the turn with people at the clubhouse. If you live at the lake and this course isn't in your regular rotation, you are severely missing out. Looking forward to coming down from Columbia again!

Playing in the Fall

Played the course in October, but on a great day. Other than needing to clear a path on the greens to putt (falling leaves on a breezy day), the course plays as good as in the middle of summer. As usual, the staff is friendly and ready to help.

decent course, fun course, not special

Played on a Monday in October. It was extremely windy and most of the front nine has little tree cover so it was in interesting day. We never saw any other golfers on the course all day. They were also top dressing the greens on the front nine which is why the course conditions wasn't great. The clubhouse guy warned us about it, and it wasn't a big deal. because of all the sand we couldnt get the flag back in the cup on one hole and on two others we couldn't get the flag out. however the zoysia fairways were great, as were the tee boxes. Greens on the back were in good shape and very consistent speed. Every hole has a little bit of a turn to it, and there were some with big elevation changes. the 18th is totally out of character with the rest of the course- a reachable par 5 with trouble in front- trees and a creek, making you make a good decision and execute it properly- a really good golf hole.
Tip - on the downhill # 13, the fairway slopes hard right to left and a good tee shot may end up unplayable in the left trees- keep it to the right of the fairway.
I had read it was a "must play" course at the lake. I certainly wouldn't put it in that character, but it was a fun place to play and the staff very friendly.

A Little Aggravating

Have played this course on many occasions and have always enjoyed it, until this round. As we were approaching the 12th green, several carts started coming up the cart path. Turns out that there was a "couples" gathering that were teeing off on 12, 13, 14, and 15 at 5:00 PM. No one in the clubhouse had informed us about this situation. I called the clubhouse to inquire as to what was going on. I was informed that this was scheduled but no one knew about it. I was asked if it would be okay to play in between couples. I said that I would, but if anyone came to me to complain that I would be contacting the clubhouse, again. Other than taking additional time to play, it turned out to be alright.

Fun course to play!

A good course with a blend of wide open holes and some very challenging holes. The greens are slick and run very true. An excellent value for the money and a excellent opportunity for golfers in the Lake area!

Glad to Get to Play Eldon Again

I like the Eldon course. It has some tough holes, but there are nice wide, flat fairways out there, too. Not the "Ozark" layout of the courses around the lake. Being able to play at the GolfNow rate is great. I will make a point to get on at Eldon more often using GolfNow.

Great challenge for the price

After spending a Labor Day weekend playing golf courses all around the lake, I was ready for an easy Sunday stroll down the fairways at Eldon. I can say that I under estimated this course. Landing a ball the fairway is no guarantee of a par. The course has a few holes that play really long up hill. Make sure to take an extra club for the yardage, I didn't hit one ball past the flag stick all day. The course had some casual water from the previous days rain, but this made the fairways and greens an absolute delight. The greens putted true and our group had a few long birdie puts drop. Some local knowledge of the greens would have been helpful, since a few of the greens (especially on the back 9) seem to break up hill! Overall, this course is a great challenge for the money and only a 20 minute drive from the lake. Totally worth every penny!
