BIG CEDAR® LODGE COURSES
Top Of The Rock
One of only two par-3 courses to be used in official competition in a PGA TOUR-sanctioned event, the Jack Nicklaus-designed Top of the Rock is perched high above Table Rock Lake with peaceful waterfalls, wandering creeks, bass-filled ponds and pristine lakes. This is a 9-hole experience.

Buffalo Ridge Springs
Already acclaimed as one of the region’s top golf courses by GOLF Magazine® and Golf Digest®, Buffalo Ridge has been transformed by visionary conservationist Johnny Morris and renowned golf course architect Tom Fazio. Together, they redesigned the course to bring players in close contact with nature, native grasses and free-ranging buffalo from nearby Dogwood Canyon Nature Park.
Ozarks National
Opened in 2019, the 18-hole Ozarks National Course will surely test avid players. The golf course architect team of Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw designed a championship course to connect golfers with nature and provide the perfect complement to the existing 18-hole layout at Buffalo Ridge Springs.
Mountain Top
Johnny Morris teamed up with golf icon Gary Player to create a world-class 13-hole short course that delivers an unparalleled experience for golfers. Sharing a similar passion for nature and golf, they created a renowned golf experience for all skill levels. The course routes through unforgettable, 300-million-year-old rock formations and includes some of the most dramatic views in the Ozarks.
PAYNE'S VALLEY
Opened in 2020 and named in honor of the late Payne Stewart, the new Payne’s Valley is the first fully public-access course in the world designed by Tiger Woods’ design firm TGR Design. The championship course features an extraordinarily dramatic 19th hole, “The Rock,” that can be used to settle unfinished wagers. The challenging but player-friendly walkable course has an unforgettable finish where golfers actually traverse through a breathtaking natural cavern system to return to the clubhouse after completing the 19th hole.
