  • According to Steve Saari, Jackson has been nationally ranked for its number of courses per capita, its quality of courses, and its pricing.
  • Jackson has about 20 public courses across the county, all of varying styles.

Golf season is here, and Jackson County is known for being a golfer's paradise. Steve Saari, Director of Golf at Calderone Golf Club explains, "Here is Jackson golfers are very lucky. We have such a variety. We have so many courses. There's been publications that have ranked Jackson in the top 10 nationally."
That could be because Jackson has some of the most courses per capita, according to Experience Jackson.

Owner of Arbor Hills Golf Club, Chris Cummings, shared, "There's so many beautiful courses in Jackson. We're somewhere between 15 and 20 public courses, and every course offers something different. It's some of the finest golf in the state."

Jackson golf really has a little bit of everything, which brings in golfers from all over to Jackson County. Kim Jenski, Manager of Concord Hills Golf Course, said "We have a lot of people from out of state who come here every single year."

"When you come out here and play, you know the course conditions are going to be good. The greens are excellent; they're some of the fastest around," said Saari.
