Eagle Knoll Golf Club

Eagle Knoll Golf Club sits in the rolling countryside near Hartsburg, Missouri, a small community in central Missouri between Columbia and Jefferson City. Designed by Gary Kern, the course occupies terrain characteristic of the Missouri River valley region, where wooded ridges and open farmland create varied topography. The routing takes advantage of natural elevation changes, offering golfers a mix of uphill, downhill, and sidehill lies across the property. The layout reflects Kern's regional design work, which typically emphasizes playability for a range of skill levels while incorporating the existing landscape features. At Eagle Knoll, this approach means tree-lined fairways, strategic bunkering, and greens that require thoughtful approach play. The course serves both daily-fee and member play, functioning as a community golf facility for the surrounding area. The setting provides a rural golf experience removed from urban development, with views across the Missouri countryside. Water features come into play on several holes, and the property's natural contours create definition and variety in the routing. The course operates as a straightforward test of golf without extensive amenities, focusing on the playing experience itself. For golfers traveling through central Missouri or visiting the Columbia area, Eagle Knoll represents the type of accessible, locally-oriented course that serves its regional community while welcoming outside play.
