This frequently watered executive course is in great shape all season long. Most of the narrow fairways are tree lined. There is one pond that is shaped like a horseshoe, and a couple other water hazards that come into play on seven holes. The small greens are slightly elevated, undulating and well bunkered.

Ponderosa Pines Golf Course
"Sweet Little Nine-Holer!"
I have enjoyed this course for over 10 years. It seems to be a well-kept secret, however. The owner of the course and his wife are the finest folks you will ever meet. Although the course is short, it is demanding. You must place your shots very well in order to shoot a good round. Stop by and say hello to the nice folks that own and run the course.

"Beautiful greens to land on!"
This place is a must see. Nice greens cause i used to cut them in 1984. Excellent scenery and beautiful grounds. It is a great family owned golf couse. Well known throughout Chicago as the best kept secret.

Big Canoe Golf Club - Cherokee/Choctaw Course
"Mountain Golf at Its Best!"
Big Canoe's three nines offer something for every level of golfer. Each nine of this spectacular course offers its own challenge. Creek's first three holes over Lake Sconti offers Risk-Reward that will thrill anyone. Choctaw put a premium on driving accuracy and Cherokee's green make players see red! Find a way to play this GEM!

Fox Creek Golf Club
"A Best Buy in StLouis Metropolitan Area"
I will start by saying that while I am only 24 years old, I have been an avid golfer since age 7. I haven't played a huge number of courses in my lifetime, but I know a good course when I play one, and I know a bad course as well. I personally feel that this course plays better than the more well known Sunset Hills CC also in Edwardsville, while not requiring membership/friendship to play. I've played the Bay Point Lagoon Legend in Panama City (known to be one of the 5 toughest courses in the US), and I truly don't think it has much on Fox Creek difficulty wise. The trees alone on Fox Creek truly play havok with any shots that aren't riding the middle of the fairways. Several greens have large trees that block approach shots that aren't setup off the tee correctly. A smart player will leave his driver in the bad on most tees (unless you are confident in your big stick), however, due to the course's length, approach shots end up being taken with mid-to-long irons more than one would like. Couple this with water or OB on nearly every hole and multi-tiered undulating greens and you are looking at one tough course. The best part about this course is the low price. You can play for dirt cheap in my opinion for as fine a course as this one. The only knock in my book is that the course does not wear well through the year, either due to climate or an average greens-crew. So if you want to play a great course for a bottom dollar price, come early in the year (April-May). I promise you won't be disappointed.
