Incline Village provided a playable layout with fairly short Par 4s that were fun when the "incline" slopes made shot making more important that distance. Some greens were smaller and had been aerated recently which added some putting challenges. The rough was 3 to 4 inches tall on many fairways and provided some US Open-like conditions. There is a lot of beauty to behold during the round especially on the back nine. Some holes and tee boxes are fairly proximate to each other so caution is a good plan when teeing off. Overall, I look forward to my next visit!

Playing Timber Lakes starts out pretty straight forward, but the Timber trap on the back nine really makes a golfer use every club in the bag. Between the subtle (and sometimes hidden) water holes and the uniquely shaped greens with undulations, this course is a treat. I would recommend taking the time to experience this layout.

From a friendly check-in process to the final hole, you will feel welcomed at this course. Grounds and greenskeeper have over 30 years experience at this course and it shows. Fairways give a great lie and greens roll true with some pace. Several tee boxes need to be rotated in the mid-day to maintain consistency. I found those working the pro shop to be personable and very willing to make my round a success. Definitely will be back to play this one very soon!!

Really enjoyed a re-visit to Eagle Knoll Golf club. The clubhouse was being upgraded and still offered great service in the midst of construction. Course is in great condition and provides some fun putting and driving challenges. This is a great place to enjoy a round of golf.

Course was in good condition and the greens and pin positions provided for a good challenge. Several short dogleg holes created some scoring opportunities and the par 5 yardage was shorter than most. Clubhouse manager allowed my twosome to start on a different hole to avoid a large group of 10 players with several carts just getting ready to tee off which was appreciated. Only took just over 3 hours to play 18 holes. Would recommend this course if you want to relax and have some fun.

Tapawingo National Golf Club was a 5 star experience in every way. Outstanding and friendly service, great clubhouse and convenient snack bar, and ample parking greeted me. I hit a bucket of balls, practiced chip shots, and putted on excellent facilities prior to my round. With 27 holes, I have reason to come back and play again to see the rest of the course. Tee boxes were excellent, fairways were firm and well maintained, sand traps were still drying out from a recent rain but playable, but the star of the round was the putting on some large and challenging greens with some undulations and slopes that made the round very interesting!! Cannot wait to return for another 5-star experience!

This is an impressive course that was in great condition even with the heat wave. Fairways and tee boxes were well defined and the rough was playable. Most impressive were the size and consistent roll on the greens. Layout was fun and challenging, but the putting was tremendous with lots of undulations and slope. Bunkers were deep and the sand was raked and in good shape. The last three holes are some of the best in Missouri and fun to play. I look forward to a return visit in the near future!!

This is an interesting Jack Nicklaus design that gives several risk vs. reward opportunities on most holes. I enjoyed the greens which had undulations, swales, and were protected by large bunkers. I had to always be aware of the slopes on some of the fairways when launching my drives. The staff was very friendly, and the course is a must play for the St. Louis region.

Wolf Hollow is a hidden gem that is well maintained, well-staffed, and is a great choice for some fun golf adventures. The holes are all interesting and laid out with some uphill shots, some blind shots, some shots that must carry to avoid a hazard, and a fair amount of rough and sloped fairways. I really loved the putting challenge as many greens were quite quick with hidden undulations. Carts had new GPS features that were very helpful! I highly recommend this course!!

There is no doubt that this course is well designed and has a great history. Cart paths created a very bumpy ride, fungus on a few greens led to some bumpy putting, fairway grass was weak in spots and lift and place was needed on many drives. With just a little maintenance, this course has lots of potential. Course employees were very courteous and helpful.

Crown Pointe should be on your must play list. The golf experience was enhanced by excellent, undulating greens, and a beautiful layout that allowed lots of room between holes. The staff was very friendly and the clubhouse and the planned golf condos were very nice. Will definitely be back in the near future!

Bear Creek offers a great variety of holes, large greens, and a friendly clubhouse atmosphere. I was greeted with a smile and conversation at check in and was welcomed to the course. Conditions were good for early April. Some sand traps were under repair and had some standing water due to a recent downpour. Otherwise, the putting on the greens was great and I would love to return and play this course again.

Do not overlook Innsbruck in your course planning this year. It is one of the most scenic resort style layouts near St. Louis and offers a great experience with lots of great scenery! Greens were being aerated, but easy to putt on anyway. Had four deer cross the number one fairway before I even hit my first drive . . beautiful! This course is worth a little drive to play!!

What a great day on the golf course with the combination of outstanding Fall colors and a well maintained golf course. The staff was very friendly and welcomed each golfer warmly. The starter was super friendly and worked to make the first hole a great kickoff to the round. Most impressive was the greens with their large size and their challenging undulations and slope. Several holes had a false front and others had deep sand traps that were protecting the putting surface. I would definitely recommend playing this course!!

From the time I was greeted by the club pro I felt like they genuinely wanted me to play their course. The staff saw an earlier tee time and paired me with a twosome that proved to be a blast all day long. The course was simply beautiful in the Fall colors and well managed. Fairways were very generous and the greens had some contour and were fun to putt on. Next trip to this area, Sultan's Run will be at the top of my "must play" list!
