About your trip

A bucket list women's golf trip! We are excited to once again organize a 4-night Swing & Sip Golf Experience at Big Cedar Lodge in 2024! The itinerary will be amazing and you won't want to miss this trip! Rustic luxury accommodations, three rounds of golf at the most scenic golf courses, midwest hospitality, and it's the perfect time to see the Ozarks in fall colors. 


Are you ready to skip the morning routine and immerse yourself in natural beauty? Big Cedar Lodge is in a remote area spread out over 4,600 acres. Here you will find rustic luxury meets rugged Missouri Ozark Mountains, overlooking sparkling Table Rock Lake. Inspired by a commitment to conservation, Johnny Morris, noted conservationist and founder of Bass Pro Shops, created Big Cedar Lodge as a destination to connect in the great outdoors. 


Big Cedar Lodge offers lodge-style accommodations, amazing culinary restaurants, five golf courses, an activity center, a breathtaking spa, and countless outdoor activities including a beach!

Legendary Golf in the Ozarks

Our group is booked at all three 18-hole courses at Big Cedar Lodge with unbelievable views!

Payne’s Valley is an homage to Ozarks native and World Golf Hall of Fame member, Payne Stewart. With breathtaking Ozark Mountain Landscape, it's the first public-access golf course designed by 82-time PGA TOUR winner, Tiger Woods. Enjoy the game's pristine water features, large fairways and greens, and spectacular 19th hole—the Big Rock at Payne’s Valley™.


Ozarks National is Missouri’s first and only golf course designed by the architect duo, Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw. This 18-hole course represents all of what the Ozarks terrain has to show and a few riveting features, including a 400-foot wooden beam and plank bridge, which connects the tee box and fairway of the 13th hole that stands 60 feet above a flowing creek.


Buffalo Ridge was designed by visionary conservationist Johnny Morris and renowned golf course architect Tom Fazio, who redesigned the course layout to immerse players in the striking nature around them. Praised as a top golf course in the region, the 18-hole championship course showcases the charm of the Ozarks with rich native grasses, natural rock formations, caves and creeks, lakes, and waterfalls, and free-ranging North American bison from nearby Dogwood Canyon Nature Park.
