Holton, Kansas

Holton Country Club, established in 1924, invites you to enjoy the seclusion of a 9 hole, par 35 hideaway. Fairways lined with majestic hardwoods follow the gentle, rolling landscape. Experience the undulating bent-grass greens.

Many of the fairways are lined with oak trees that are over 100 years old, and the greens are large and well maintained. The course is seldom crowed and allows golfers to play in a relaxed atmosphere. Golfers seldom have to be concerned about obtaining a tee time and can play when they are ready.

Although the course is a nine-hole course, the different tee placements that have been provided for the second round gives the course a completely different outlook. It is, therefore, as challenging as many 18-hole course might be.

Green fees and cart rentals are very reasonable with a nice clubhouse and friendly atmosphere upon the completion of your round of golf.

Many people are of the opinion that the Holton Country Club is the nicest nine-hole golf course in northeast Kansas, if not the entire state!
