Golf Course
Red Cloud is happy to boast the third best 9-hole public golf course in Nebraska. Designed by the late PGA Tour Pro Harry Obitz in 1988, the construction was truly a community effort with many members donating their time and equipment. The course offers two distinguishing features to golfers at all levels. One, despite the harsh winters, the grass stays green and the course is open year-round. The second is a unique characteristic that is rarely found-elevated greens that quickly make the putting surfaces playable after a hard rain. Services include driving range and putting green, cart rental, and full club house bar.
