Railside Golf Club - Course 1 in Gibson City
This is a links-style course. The constant change in wind conditions makes this an adventure for all skill levels of golfer. There are young trees lining the fairways, and the numerous sand bunkers and mounds can give a good golfer fits. The firm greens are fast, undulating, and vary from medium to large in size. The round culminates with a 583-yard, par 5, requiring a tee shot into a narrow landing area with water along the right side, and then a second shot into a well-bunkered area. Junior rates are available on weekdays and after 2 PM on weekends. The men's and ladies' tees have slope and course ratings for both men and ladies.
