Prairie Dunes Country Club

I was very fortunate to get invited to play here with a group of friends. WOW what an amazing course. It’s a golfers dream. I’m a high handicap player so I will say it’s not an easy course but when you are playing somewhere with that quality and history, score becomes an afterthought. The greens were the purist I’ve ever experienced. The staff was very friendly. Pro shop has one of the biggest selections of merchandise that I have ever seen. Which really surprised me due to the location. If you ever get the chance, don’t pass this place up.

Prairie Dunes Country Club was an absolute pleasure! When you get a chance to play a classic masterpiece, you want to know you got its best defense. It did not disappoint! The wind was blowing 25-30MPH, and the fairway and greens were firm and dried out. Plus, the greens were running a smooth 14 with these conditions. That means hit your spot, and don't go long. Perry Maxwell's design was perfect, only to be complemented by his son finishing out the final 9 holes. To think he created this course in the 1930s with a metal blade and horses makes you appreciate this treat even more. The par 3's w…

Great layout, one of my favorite. Very tough course that demands keeping your ball in the fairway. I love this hole on the back nine!

7 handicapper here. Course was beautiful and the beauty was almost impossible to capture. Golf course was great, but about 15% of the playable areas were burned out. Greens were impossible to score on. Dried out & blazing fast. Would not hold a shot. Fun day, but golf was beyond difficult. Wind was a factor, but not the predominant factor.

We were guests of a member here to play this great old links-style course. It was a cold breezy cloudy day and we got off just ahead of the course MGA National Members Member-Guest tournament. The course is built in the natural sand hills so the fairways can be like roller-coasters at times. The bunkers had brown dirt and not sand as most course bunkers do. All fairways are lined with prairie grass that is incredibly dense so an errant ball is as good as gone. And, where we live grasses like that would be harboring snakes so it was hard to think of “going in” to find a ball. Our member host we…

I was a skeptic going in, but within a few holes was made a believer. A must play for anyone who loves golf and memorable courses.

Awesome course! Easy tee to green but very difficult greens with undulations and steep edges.

Awesome food! (You do have to be with a member to eat here unfortunately.) salmon was great 😊

This course is such a treat to play! It's tucked away from the city so your exposed to the natural elements such as the midwest wind and nature that surrounds. The course is always in great shape as the grounds crew does amazing at maintaining nice plush rough, green fairways, and smooth greens! This course will test your accuracy with lots of native grass if you miss the fairways. So pack some balls, but definitely if presented the opportunity to play this course, do not pass it up!

Great golf, service, views, & more. What a beautiful and timeless creation!

What a great golf course, wonderful staff, great grounds crew that had the course looking wonderful to the eye, and the greens roll great, but make sure to land in the right area, because they will punish you. That's the stuff that makes this and other national course wonderful.

Prairie Dunes is a Top Ten in the USA golf experience. The course is challenging, but picturesque and fun. The vibe in the clubhouse is beyond welcoming. I’ve been there several times and I continue to be impressed by the golf, the dining and the camaraderie. PD has everything one would want as a guest and I’m here to tell you that the members are great. Hard to find another Top Ten golf course that has all of those attributes.
