Plan Your Wichita Golf Trip in 60 Seconds

Sand Creek Station and the friendliest golf value in America

Wichita anchors a surprisingly strong south-central Kansas golf scene led by Sand Creek Station — a links-style public course in nearby Newton with a Road Hole replica that's ranked #1 in U.S. customer loyalty for over a decade. Cheap golf, a real brewery-and-Old-Town scene, and easy big-group logistics.
