Golf Courses in South Dakota

South Dakota's golf landscape includes 27 named golf courses and country clubs distributed across 24 cities and 17 counties, according to data from the USGS Geographic Names Information System, the federal gazetteer of named places. Because every entry in the directory derives from this authoritative federal source, each facility represents a real, named location organized by geography.

However, the GNIS database catalogs named geographic features rather than operating businesses, making this directory a partial and dated snapshot of the state's golf infrastructure. A newly opened or recently renamed course may not yet appear in the federal record, and details about a facility's public or private status, fee structure, or course layout do not form part of the GNIS documentation. Golfers interested in playing at any of these courses should use the directory to identify and locate facilities by city and county, then consult the course's own website or contact information to confirm current hours, rates, and booking availability.

How to use the South Dakota directory

Start by narrowing to where you want to play — by city, or more reliably by county — then open a course for its locality detail. Every listing is a real, named facility from the federal gazetteer; for tee times, green fees and public-or-private status, check the course’s own site, since those aren’t in the GNIS record.

Directory note. Listings come from the USGS GNIS named-feature gazetteer (2021 vintage) and are partial — public/private status, green fees and course layout aren't in the federal record. Confirm details on each course’s own site.
