Frederick Peak Golf Course<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The new golf course just outside Sioux City, Landmand<\/a>, is going to generate a lot of inquisitive play to the area. Many, like us, may want to stretch the itinerary and make the trip to The Prairie Club in Valentine, a full 240 miles to the west. Along the way, there’s some interesting public access courses which add considerable value to the trek, maybe even creating the Northern Nebraska Golf Trail<\/strong> in addition to the Nebraska State guide<\/a> to the best public golf courses. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

First off would be the Tatanka Golf Club<\/a> in Niobrara, 90 miles northwest. In addition to golf, there’s the Santee Sioux Nation’s Ohiya Casino<\/a>. The course is a Paul Albanese design on a broad stretch of land with nary a flat lie to its credit. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s just another 1 1\/2 hours southwest to the Atkinson Stuart Country Club<\/a>, a small town, 9 holes built by its members in the early 1970s. There also the Mill Race Park<\/a> and Campgrounds adjoining if you’re the camping type, otherwise there’s several small motels and B&Bs in town for the overnight.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

After another 1 1\/2 hours west, we arrive in the Valentine area where the Prairie Club<\/a> receives top billing nationally, but don’t overlook the 10 hole, Frederick Peak Golf Club<\/a>. It’s a Tom Lehman<\/a> design, a unique rolling layout bordered by prairie grasses at rates that might be equal to the cost of lunch at the Prairie Club!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
