Cimarron National Golf Club

Great public course. Not overly challenging so you can still have fun. Beautiful scenery. The front nine of Aqua Canyon is gorgeous and reminds me of golf courses back in Minnesota. If your looking for a change of scenery, do yourself a favor and give this place a shot-​pun intended

I LOVE Cimarron National golf course! The designer of these and the courses across the street did not «believe» in sand traps (felt it slowed down the game too much); therefore, there’s no sand traps to worry about. They did, however, still believe in water hazards (which can be problematic for those like me who have some difficulties getting loft in your shot).
There are 2 18-​hole courses: Cimarron National and Aqua Canyon. Cimarron is harder with water hazards coming into play more often. Both are great to play. My favorite is Aqua Canyon.
Pros: courses are well-​maintained and employees are always pleasant. The KEY pro: it’s NEVER busy! You don’t have to worry about people crowding you, nor do you have to worry about creeping up on folks in front of you and having to wait. I’ve never had a problem with getting a tee time on the weekend (either by calling a couple of days ahead or same day).
The clubhouse is nice — standard golf course fare. This one does have a kitchen that will make a tasty grilled cheese and tomato sandwich for the vegetarians.
Price is pretty much what you would pay (or less) for a course in the city — $ 105 for 3 rounds of golf and 2 carts.
The only con I would list is the drive time (though for me, it’s not, as I enjoy road trips (even if they are «mini»)). The courses are in Guthrie, so it’s about a 30 minute drive from NW OKC, but it’s absolutely worth it if you like being able to play at your own pace.
