About this course
Gateway National Golf Links is a links-style public golf course in Madison, Illinois, within view of the Gateway Arch across the Mississippi River from downtown St. Louis. Rolling fairways separated by mounding move through former pastureland, with tall grasses, lakes, wood-tie bunkers, and stone bridges.
The course was designed by architect Keith Foster and opened in 1999. It is noted for having bentgrass fairways, a rarity among public courses in the St. Louis region.
Gateway National is open to the public with cart fees included in green fees, and walking is permitted at any time. The clubhouse offers dining with views of the course, and the facility hosts corporate and charity golf outings.
