Meadow Lark Country Club

Detailed description of Meadow Lark Country Club

Meadow Lark Country Club is a Private, 18 hole golf course located along the banks of the Missouri River in Great Falls, Montana.

Designed by William Diddel, the Meadow Lark golf course opened in 1949.

Meadow Lark is recognized as one of the great classic courses in Montana and has a reputation for its sleek, undulating greens. The greens at Meadow Lark are the glory of the course and its defense against even the best of players. They feature humps and hollows, steps and terraces, false fronts, and slopes in several directions. They are protected by grassy swales, mounds, and strategically placed bunkers. Getting to the green is quite an adventure, too, as the fairways roll back and forth over a forested parkland. Pines, Ash, Willows, and Cottonwood trees, as well as sand and water, make good driving a must! Water is in play on nine holes, with a series of ponds and the Missouri River providing the challenge.

The grand finale, known as "River Run," begins at hole fifteen and finishes on number eighteen, where golfers must avoid the Missouri. While challenging for the best of players, the course is enjoyable for all golfers because of the great flexibility allowed by its four sets of tees.

Meadow Lark Country Club plays to a maximum distance of 6,932 yards and a par of 72. The course rating is 72.0, with a slope rating of 126.
