It's been years since I golfed, but the Roy L Beck golf course is a great place to renew the fun. It's a beautiful, well maintained course with varied landscapes and views. The newly opened Sammy's Club House is a wonderful addition to the golf course serving sandwiches, hotdogs, smoothies and soft drinks. The sandwich menu is varied and delicious. I highly recommend a lovely round of golf close to the beautiful Jack's Fork River in Eminence, Missouri. It's even a great place to photograph the flowers around the club house.

Great 9 hole course! Played on June 13th and the course was in great shape! I played here all throughout my youth and this is the best it has looked! The only complaint I have is that it is hard to find someone working the office to get a cart. No on call number to get ahold of anyone. I do not recommend walking here.
