This is Nature’s Course Mountain Top Golf Course
What do you get when you combine the creative genius of Bass Pro Shops founder and noted conservationist Johnny Morris and World Golf Hall of Fame legend Gary Player? None other than Mountain Top Course. Sharing a similar passion for nature and golf, and through a joined pioneering spirit, they created this renowned golf experience fit for all skill levels.
This short, 13-hole course lacks nothing short of a remarkable experience for golfers. Intertwined through unforgettable rock formations, Mountain Top Course includes some of the most dramatic views in the Ozarks. With thousands of hours put into pick and shovel excavations, 300-million year old limestone formations were revealed, adding to the unparalleled, over-the-top experience that is Mountain Top Course.
"People in America should really make an effort to come and see what exists here. It’s beyond one’s belief.”
- Gary Player
