Sun Valley Golf Course sits among the rolling hills and valleys of a golf community in Lincoln County, Missouri. The layout was designed by Gary Kern, with most of the construction work carried out by Kerry Davis.
The front nine opened for play in 1989, and the back nine followed in 1994, completing the eighteen-hole course. Its holes are regarded as a stern but fair test for golfers of varying abilities.
