“First 11 holes are completely fine. Holes 12-17 are a ton of fun, varied with a lot of cool features you don’t see on modern public courses very often."

“Course has a few interesting holes, including a great blind approach. Also has a couple of narrow par fives that don't have much appeal. Routed on both sides of train tracks -- the transition between nines would make for a long walk."

“One of the best muni courses in Kansas. Real bargain for the money. Great course to play, good practice facilities. Many holes require target type shot off the tee or to the green, Greens large and can be tricky. Fun course for the money."
