Best for: The bucket-list round. Groups who want to play a Tiger Woods design and experience the iconic 19th hole. Every group should play this at least once.

Insider tip: The 19th hole is not just a gimmick — it's genuinely one of the most memorable holes in American golf. After you finish 18, you walk to a separate tee box with a bar where you can grab a drink before hitting to the island green surrounded by waterfalls. Take your time and soak it in. It's included in your green fee.

Best for: The best pure golf experience on the property. Groups who appreciate strategic, natural course design. Walking encouraged.

Insider tip: This is the Coore-Crenshaw design and many serious golfers consider it the best course on property — even better than Payne's Valley from a pure design perspective. It sits on ridgelines with panoramic Ozark views. The greens are large, creative, and reward thoughtful play. If your group can only play two courses, make this one of them.

Best for: The solid all-around course. Good for mixed-skill groups. Less intimidating than Payne's Valley but still excellent.

Insider tip: Originally designed by Tom Fazio, then renovated by Coore-Crenshaw. The renovation opened up sight lines and restored a more natural, links-influenced feel. It's where the Bass Pro Shops Legends of Golf Champions Tour event was held for years. Great practice facilities here too — use them before your Payne's Valley round.

Best for: The perfect afternoon round. Great for mixed skill levels, couples, or a fun warm-up day. The cave hole alone is worth the trip.

Insider tip: Don't skip this because it's a par-3 course. It's a Jack Nicklaus design carved into bluffs overlooking Table Rock Lake, and one hole literally plays through a natural cave. The views are jaw-dropping and the course is far more interesting than most full-length layouts. Play it on your arrival afternoon. The adjacent Lost Canyon Cave Trail (also on property) is worth exploring if you have an extra hour.

Best for: The casual walking round. 13 holes designed by Gary Player. Great for a morning before your main round or when the group wants something relaxed.

Insider tip: This is a hidden gem on the property. Walking only, 13 holes (a mix of par 3s, 4s, and a par 5), and it feels like you're hiking through the Ozark wilderness with golf clubs. The elevated tee shots are spectacular. Low-key, unpretentious, and a nice change of pace from the bigger courses.

Best for: Groups who loved Top of the Rock and want more par-3 action. 18 holes with serious elevation drama.

Insider tip: This is the newest addition — an 18-hole par-3 course that's more challenging than Top of the Rock. Some of the holes play from cliff edges with 100-foot drops. If your group wants a competitive side game on par 3s, this is the spot. The views rival anything on the property.
