Bear Creek Valley Golf Club
Played On 06/27/2018Always a Fun Course
Always a fun round The staff is always friendly, the food in the attached restaurant is excellent.
It was a hot day, so there were not a lot of other players, thus the pace of play was great.
The course is in good shape, except the bunkers. There appears to be a world wide shortage of sand for bunkers, at least at most of the courses here at the lake.
North/East at Oaks North Golf Course
Played On 02/23/2018Love Oaks North
I've played Oaks North about once a week for a couple of years now. The course is a great choice if you want to walk. Also great place to hone my short game (or not).
The greens are in good shape, as are most of the bunkers (a rare thing now days for a lot of courses). We played during the week, so the pace of play was good.
Native Oaks Golf Club
Played On 02/09/2018Fun course in good shape
I played here for the first time and was pleasantly taken with the course. Challenging, in good shape with a friendly staff all at a reasonable price.
The fairways, greens and bunkers were in good shape.
The cart was in good shape and I enjoyed having a club washer and ball washer on the cart. Also there was a small cooler (complete with ice no less).
The folks I talked to in the pro shop were friendly and helpful.
All in all an enjoyable course.
Eagle Crest Golf Club
Played On 01/26/2018Fun Course, Bunkers Need Help
It has been several years since I last played this course. This round was on a Friday mid-morning and the pace of play was great since we barely saw anyone else on the course.
The clubhouse staff (of 1) was very welcoming and helpful.
The cart was clean and in good shape.
The greens were well tended as was most all of the rest of the course, with the exception of the bunkers. Most had virtually no sand, only mud. For some reason almost every bunker had squishy mud at the lowest spot, as if there had been a heavy rain in the previous few days, but it had not rained for over a week. This made play out of the mud almost as impossible as if they were bone dry.
Given the very reasonable cost of playing Eagle Crest, I think the course is a good value all in all
Bear Creek Valley Golf Club
Played On 08/31/2017Nice course at a fair price
Nice course, in good shape. Always well maintained. The course is challenging, but not terribly difficult. The bunkers are in better shape than most courses in the area.
The restaurant associated with the course has great food at a reasonable price.
Lake Valley Country Club
Played On 05/25/2017Nice course
Lake Valley CC is a well maintained course. It's fairly unchallenging, which is fine with me. The staff is very friendly and accommodating.
I think this course is fairly expensive given its remote location, but there were a lot of folks playing in the middle of the week, in the middle of the day. So apparently a lot of people think its worth the price.
The one slight negative to this course is it lacks any holes where you just look at it and say "this is a gorgeous golf hole."
Osage National Golf Club - The Mountain/Links Course
Played On 10/08/2015In Good Shape and Fun
I normally don't play Osage National due to their consistantly high prices (for this area). This is however, one of the top two courses in the area in terms of the conditions of the greens and bunkers, so at least it is fair that they are among the most expensive.
I found a hotdeals rate on GolfNow, and this made it reasonably priced (for me).
Beautiful setting and challenging course. Good food and beverages at a fair price. I've played in the summer and some reason it seems that this course doesn't get as much breeze as others, so it can be really hot. I played in the fall and it was beautiful.
Bear Creek Valley Golf Club
Played On 08/13/2015Nice course, great restarant
I play Bear Creek several times a year. It was in good shape. Bunkers had sand rather than rocks like some courses near here.
It was a slow day for the course, so they sent out a bunch of twosomes. Unfortunately, this resulted in us waiting on every hole to play. Would appreciate it if the courses would combine twosomes. It makes things faster.
Eldon Golf Club
Played On 09/12/2014Enjoyable course
Friendly staff and only a short drive from Lake of the Ozarks. Nice course in good shape. Bunkers are well maintained, and the fairways and greens are in good shape. Friendly staff.
Challenging, yet fairly wide fairways makes it not too hard.
The Oaks at Margaritaville Lake Resort
Played On 09/26/2013Fun course
The Oaks at Tan Tara is a great course. With the hot deal rate this course is the best bargain at the lake. The course is in very good shape, the bunkers are in the best shape of any course at the lake.
