I was looking for a club to join but I didn't need a pool or tennis courts. I was thrilled to find Persimmon Woods Golf Club, which is a short drive from anywhere in St. Louis. If you are a pure golf enthusiast there is no better place to join than this club. Not only is it a beautiful course with no gimmicky holes, it is very walkable. The club house and patio are great and the food is excellent. This reasonably priced club is a golfer's paradise!

Golf at it’s best. I could play this course every day, it’s a challenging but fair layout. We really enjoyed it, the members who get golf here are lucky. Practice and Driving ranges are probably one of the best I’ve got to experience.

Looks like a great place to shoot golf and relax. Really can't tell you anything else but has a nice parking lot. Was able to get any information on joining their golf club, no one available to talk with me.

Loved the course; however, my skills didn't match the course that day. Definitely would like a redo.

Played this course for the first time yesterday. What a treat!! They should be very proud of this golf club, it is very nice. All the people we met were very friendly and the atmosphere was very casual. The gal at the halfway snack stop (near hole #12) was very friendly and came out to welcome us. And that was before she realized we were perspective members trying out the course. Two of us played there from our regular golf group, and really enjoyed our round. The wind added an additional challenge, but we scored fairly well. Scoring a par on #18 was a highlight for me. We decided to play the White tees since it was our first time to play the course. Good choice! The wind and some of the courses soft conditions would have made 6300+ yards seem much longer. However, I'd love to try the Black tees in dryer, hotter and fast conditions. Rob (The Golf Course Superintendent) should be very proud of the job he's done to maintain (and improve) the course. St Louis summers are very cruel to golf courses. I did see some heat stress on a couple greens, but not much other damage on the course relating to a brutally hot summer. What a treat to play out of such well groomed bunkers with real white silicon sand! Not used to not having to rake the sand before I play out of it. The greens were a treat. Don't get to play on greens that fast very often here in St Louis. A small modification to my putting strategy had to be made. I would recommend this course to anyone who is thinking about joining a private golf course. This is a private Golf club, not a Country Club. This makes it unique in this class of membership based clubs, but the price is appropriate for what it is. This is a club you want to join, if golf is your focus. Most of my golf buddies fall into this category. I can highly recommend Persimmon Woods!! Dave A
