While all six offer enjoyable rounds, we always make a point to play the Buchanan Creek Municipal and the Rolling Hills Country Club. Buchanan Creek provides a challenging layout with surprisingly scenic views for a public course, while Rolling Hills offers a classic, tree-lined test that feels more exclusive than its price suggests. You'll get a real sense of the region's golf character at these two.

What's the best way to get around and between courses in Buchanan County?

A rental car is essential for navigating Buchanan County. The courses are spread out enough that walking or ride-sharing isn't practical, but driving between them is straightforward and scenic. You'll appreciate the flexibility to explore at your own pace.
