Prairie Hills Golf Course ☆ Follow

The Prairie Hills Golf Course first opened for play in 1982 when the first nine holes were completed, with the back nine opening in 1996. The course is an 18-hole, par-71 layout measuring 6,277 yards with a slope rating of 116 and a course rating of 70.1, designed by John & Mike Weber. Located just north of Kearney, it is a Scottish links style course.

The course features large, well-cared-for greens and lush fairways, with rough consisting of foot-high prairie grass and wildflowers, and ponds and bunkers found on several holes. The tenth hole is notable as one of the toughest holes, featuring an uphill tee shot over a marsh area to a narrow fairway lined with Nebraska gorse. The back nine plays tighter and requires good shotmaking skills, with water coming into play a few times on the front nine but not on the back nine.

The course came under new ownership in Fall 2001 and underwent many improvements, including a brand new clubhouse. The facility now operates as a semi-private course offering membership and daily play options for golfers of varying skill levels.
