Raynor! Always fun to see his templates incorporated throughout a golf course and how each one is brought to life. I thoroughly enjoyed my time here. The course was in great shape, and the thick rough made for an added challenge.

A really cool course basically set on top of a mountain. The views at the top of Ozarks National are so good. I’m not sure I’m a huge fan of the course though as much as others are. Still a really fun course and the conditions are so good.

What an amazing place to be! Driving up the clubhouse on top of the mountain you can see it from a few miles away. Once you are up there it’s almost like you are in another world. The vastness of this course is truly something special.

Robert Trent Jones, Bellerive immediately comes to mind. Not my favorite architect but it's a challenging golf course in A+ condition that I probably wouldn't choose to play all the time but I'd certainly recommend it to anyone that hasn't had the pleasure.

Course was in amazing shape. Most shots were downhill which made it easier to know where to hit the ball all the time. Also so many waterfalls in and around the course. Some how they were able to keep most tee boxes high and fairways low.

Incredible clubhouse and practice facility. Course was impeccably maintained. Strategic holes, can get to big numbers quickly if out of position.

We played the River / Mountain courses and was excited that they just completed a Renovation on these two 9 hole courses. There is another 9 there called the Links that I believe they are renovating in the fall of 2026. The bunkers were white sand and in awesome conditions.
