Ozark National was a beautiful course and a great stop on our trip, but I’d give it 4 stars instead of 5. The layout is fantastic, with dramatic elevation changes, sweeping views of the Ozarks, and a really fun variety of holes that kept our group of 16 entertained. It’s a challenging but fair track, and the design makes for an exciting round. That said, the course conditions were a little under kept—likely due to all the recent rain—which took away just a bit from the overall experience compared to the other courses we played. Even so, the staff was friendly and accommodating, and the setting itself is stunning. With a little more attention to conditioning, Ozark National could easily match the other top-tier courses in the area.

Ozarks national is a beautiful but extremely challenging course. I played it with a group of friends and we’re all average golfers from eight handicap to 20. My advice play at FORWARD and play 6000 yards or less. I know you wanna bang the drives, but it’s hard to see where they’re going on this track.Everything about it is exceptional, but it’s difficult.

Beautiful, challenging course in Branson, Missouri. Always seems to be windy on top of these peaks, but pay attention to pheasant & deer that like to cross your path somewhere on the course.

We played Payne’s Valley, Ozarks National, Buffalo Ridge and Top of The Rock. Out of the 3 18 hole courses everybody has a different ranking of Ozarks. Some thought it was the best, others the worst but mainly just depended on who played what course well. I would say Ozarks was the most challenging of the 3. The fairways and greens are large but if you miss the fairway you are going to have a hard time finding your ball. We played 10 days after aeration and you couldn’t tell at all. The course was in incredible shape. The staff is amazing. The marshals have water and wet towels every time you see them which was great on a hot day. My only complaint would be the pro shop. No restaurant or breakfast food. You have to go the whole way over to Payne’s valley. There’s food out on the course but just hot dogs and snacks (all complimentary by the way). One toilet in the club house as well which was odd. But all in all amazing course, staff and views.

Fantastic course. Extremely challenging with tons of blind teeshots. The views can't be beat. I can't wait to go back and play paynes valley and Buffalo ridge. You get free range balls. Also free lunch and snacks but only at the clubhouse after the 9th hole. 10/10 would recommend.
