FOREST HILLS COUNTRY CLUB

The rolling Ozark foothills terrain creates natural elevation changes that architect Dick Watson exploited brilliantly, particularly on the downhill par-4 14th where your drive carries over a wooded ravine to a fairway that drops 60 feet toward the green. Dense hardwood forests frame every hole without feeling claustrophobic, and the mature oaks and maples explode with color come October, making this Missouri gem worth the pilgrimage during peak fall season. Watson's routing maximizes the property's natural contours while keeping forced carries to a minimum, creating a layout that rewards course management over raw power.
