I went there a year or two after it opened and it was a great time. I preferred the Pines course, but the Dunes is awesome too

What do you want to know? It’s very nice. Doesn’t open until the middle of May. Step below Sandhills, but very nice.

Looking at planning a golf trip either this summer and next and am evaluating options. Have never been to the Sandhills area in general so it’s on the list of choices for the trip.

Sandhills would be incredible to play but have heard it’s fairly difficult to get on if you aren’t a member/don’t know one. So looking at Prairie Club instead.

Everything is a step below the Sandhills

That’s an understatement

That’s an understatement

It’s similar to getting on at Augusta

I'd rather play Golden Tee for hours on end...

If we can count credit card and housing debt, I would fit neatly into the group above.

Prairie Club is awesome. Went on a golf trip in 2021 with some buddies and we play Awarii Dunes, Wild Horse, Prairie Club and then Bayside.

We didn't stay on site so I can't comment on the lodging. It was $250 a person for all you can golf basically. They have two courses, The Pines and the Dunes course. They alternate each day which course they use. Public gets to use one and private members get to use the other. The day we went we were playing the Pines. They also have this area called the "Horse Course". It is basically 10 greens set up in a field with no tee boxes and you just go out there and make up your own holes and have fun. Basically just went out there with 12 guys, a case of beer and a hand full of wedges. Settled up bets from the round and playing closest to the pin.

I also got the pleasure of playing which is an hour and a half south of Prairie Club. Awesome place as well!

This is perfect. Thank you for laying that out- exactly the itinerary im loooking at


Which course did you also play? I don’t see a name there in the last sentence

If you can take the time to do it, stay at the lodge or in the cabins for one night and you can golf both arrival/checkout days and get to golf at least two rounds each day as part of the stay n play...accommodations are decent and the food is pretty good at the lodge as well. If you decide to stay in Valentine, the Peppermill Steakhouse is also solid for eats.

Much easier than that, but still difficult. You can write a letter to the club and they’ve been known to accommodate a one-time-only round as a guest of the club. Worth a shot if you don’t have a better connect.

As for Prairie Club, it’s a cool experience and worth the effort. Dunes is better than Pines. Make time for the horse course. Fredericks Peak is a 10 hole course in town that’s supposed to be pretty wild as well. Also make time to float down a river in a cow tank.

That's an awesome trip.

Prairie Club is awesome for all the reasons you describe. My parents live 5 min from Bayside so I play that one a few times a summer. I've done a few similar trips with buddies over the years.

There's barely 36 holes in valentine and that's if you count all 3 on each.

We went to valentine for the bachelor party, played the Fredricks course (?) 10 hole fun little course. Coming from southeast NE it was a fun little course and we all had a good time on it.
