Mt. Vernon Golf Course in Mt. Vernon, MO is a typical rural municipal course with a limited budget. The course does, however, provide a excellent golfing experience for the residents of Mt. Vernon and the surrounding area. The greens are on the small side and have minor undulation. The ball sits up nicely in the fairways and give players a good chance to score well. The green fees are very reasonable and, if you walk, you can play 18 holes for under $20. Great value. Overall, I enjoyed playing the course and would love to play again. Jeremy Weiss, the course manager, was very accommodating and made sure that John Lind took good care of me.
Off topic a bit, but if you are in Mt. Vernon and are looking for a good cup of coffee or food try Keen Bean. Everything about this place is cool and great!
