About this course
Paradise Pointe Golf Complex's Outlaw course is a Craig Schreiner design located in Smithville, Missouri, a community situated roughly thirty miles north of Kansas City. The facility operates as a public complex offering multiple courses, with Outlaw serving as one of the primary layouts. Schreiner, a regional architect active in the Midwest, designed courses that typically work within the rolling terrain and clay-based soils common to western Missouri and eastern Kansas. The Outlaw routing likely takes advantage of the natural topography found in this part of the state, where gentle elevation changes and native grasses characterize the landscape. Courses in this region often incorporate water features, either natural creeks or constructed ponds, and utilize the prevailing winds that sweep across the open terrain. The design philosophy for public facilities in this market generally emphasizes playability for a range of skill levels while maintaining enough challenge to keep regular players engaged. Paradise Pointe serves the northern Kansas City metropolitan area, providing accessible golf in a region where public course options cater to both local residents and visitors. The complex format allows golfers to experience different layouts and conditions within a single facility, a model that has become common in markets seeking to maximize land use and provide variety without requiring separate club memberships.

Getting there
The journey to Paradise Pointe Golf Complex begins at Kansas City International Airport, a straightforward forty-minute drive northeast into the rolling farmland and reservoir country of Clay County. The route traces the eastern shore of Smithville Lake, where open Missouri prairie gives way to wooded bluffs and quiet coves, the landscape growing more intimate as you leave the metropolitan sprawl behind. Paradise Pointe sits tucked along the water's edge, its arrival marked by a transition from rural two-lane to a private drive that winds through native grasses and cottonwoods - a surprisingly serene pocket of golf terrain just beyond the city's outer orbit.
