The Prairie Club is located 2 1/2 hours north of North Platte on the southwest side of Valentine, with two 18-hole championship layouts as well as cabins and a lodge for overnight accommodations
The Pines runs through a ponderosa forest along the banks of the Snake River Canyon. It features tees playing from 5,345 yards to 7.043 yards at the tips, the white tees at 6,824 yards, 74.2/133, course/slope ratings, designed by Graham Marsh.
The Dunes course is wide open and links-style along ribbons of green fairways through and over the rolling dunes, along tall prairie grasses with massive green complexes. There are tees from 5,752 yards to 7,583 yards; the middle, blue tees are 6,848, 71.7/128, course/slope ratings, designed by Tom Lehman and Chris Brands.
There's also the ten-hole par three "Horse" course, designed by Gil Hanse, Jim Wagner, and golf writer Geoff Shackelford, along the rim of the Snake River Canyon, without tee boxes, which provides a make-it-up-as-you-go layout.
