Yeah we would probably only play one of Annbriar and Gateway to keep costs low as much as I would live to play both, unless we played one of them later in the afternoon at the lower rate
Iād play Gateway over Annbriar, just my two cents. Some stupid holes on Annbriar back nine.
Far Oaks is a really fun course and shouldnāt be too expensive. It was designed by a guy on C&Cās staff and grandson of 1968 Masters champ. Itās fairly easy, too, so you could make some birds or at least have a ton of fun!

They lost their greens last year and heard they are still terrible
Thatās too badā¦
As others noted, there are better courses out there, but trying to get in 9 at Highlands or 18 at Forest Park is worth it just for the history and area.

So hereās what Iām thinking, feel free to chime in if this is a dumb itinerary.
Friday afternoon: Gateway
Saturday morning: Acorns
Saturday afternoon: Annbriar
Sunday: Forrest Park
Really trying to stay as close to the IL side as possible for my brother to get back to Springfield if needed with quick access to I 55. Forrest Park Sunday then makes getting home easier for me to Columbia and not terrible for them.

For Forest Park - try to get on Dogwood/Redbud for your 18, the other 9 (Hawthorn) is short/flat.
What does APC stand for on the Forest Park booking site? Just trying to do the math for everything
Edit: N/M figured it out
Better than last yearā¦but still not great
Thatās the best STL public golf you could play, well done
Any idea what happened there? Always loved the course but my last visit was a tough scene.
Check teeoff.com for an afternoon deal time at Annbriar. Have seen some around 1:30 lately. There is usually a 20% off code active each week as well.
Hi all, Iām new to the Refuge and live in STL city (the Hill). Looking forward to getting to know folks on here. Iām a 5.2, and have played most of the public courses around STL on both sides of the river.

No clueā¦most of them are fine now, but a few have some spotty patches. Hopefully they get everything back because itās one of my favorites to play.
Welcome! Weāll have to get out for a game soon
I too have fallen off the Refuge for a while but need to get back and more involved. I blame 2 small children. Letās get out and play. Hope all are well.

Played Far Oaks yesterday and was surprisingly pretty impressed with the greens. Can say they are definitely back and in much better shape than 2 months ago. Pretty dry out there right now too so fairways and greens were rolling pretty good
