Beautiful and a great test

I love the design of this course. Many challenges and traps. Unfortunately it looks like no one from their crea has raked any of the sandtraps all year. Seriously. If you hit into a trap you were almost guaranteed to be in someone else deep footprint. Obviously the goal is not to hit the traps, but it was literally impossible to hit out of many of the one's I saw. I hit into three and had to take drops out as they were unplayable.
Otherwise beautiful fairways and greens.

Only 9, but...

It's a nine that is well thought out with two par 3s, two par 5s and interesting, well maintained greens.

Love the layout at Prairie Bluff

Our beautiful day was made a little longer due to slow loud groups not being managed on course. I don't know why golf courses allow music to be played on the course. Three different groups around us were blaring music. And they were not together in an outing. Motown on one group, Punk Floyd on another, and Neil Young on another. Put up some "no loud music" signs please. And get your rangers on the issue. I love all those musicians, but not while I'm golfing. If you have to listen to music stay home.

Thank you for playing Prairie Bluff Golf Course, Dan! We apologize if the pace of play was moving along slower than normal but we're glad to hear how much you enjoy the layout. As for the music from the other groups around you, we're sorry if it took away from the overall enjoyment of your round. Please give us a call at the pro shop next time and we'll see what we can do to accommodate everyone. Thank you.

Great layout

Love this course...they might want to hand out a flyer to golfers about how to treat a green. Got behind some groups who had no clue how to walk on a green. Nasty scuff marks and just unnecessary gouges on the greens. Not a mark on the course maintenance, just ignorant golfers.

Straightforward fairways

Grip it and rip it!! Not a difficult layout for the average golfer. A chance to take home a nice score and well manicured. Beautiful fairways and greens. Good value! Few but well placed traps.

Traditional 80's resort course

This course is a nicely laid out traditional right handers course with many holes running clockwise around the perimeter. It was too early in the season to judge care of course, but there were a lot of beautiful huge mature trees lining fairways and traps were in decent early season condition. Greens were excellent for early season! I'll defintely play there again.
