Understand the course before making an access claim.

We are here to serve, to provide a pleasant, positive golfing experience on the course and in the pro shop. Our 18-hole, 5,909-yard course in the valley east of Rapid City and the beautiful Black Hills presents an inviting test for golfers of all skill levels, from the junior (and adult) beginners through the truly low-handicap player. The course is rated at 70.00 from the blue tees with a slope of 131; 69.4 and 127 from the white tees; 69.9 and 131 from the red tees and 65.8 and 120 from the gold tees. The front nine winds through creek-side vistas where you may see ducks, geese, deer, an occasional wild turkey, mink or turtle sharing a fairway. Moving away from Rapid Creek, wetland preserves on the back nine offer nesting opportunities for a variety of birds. Elevated tees offer ever-changing, breath-taking views of prairie lands, the vaulted Badlands to the east and the Hills to the west. When your mind returns to golf, our golf professionals can help improve your game with lessons or fit you with clubs from a broad range of manufacturers.
