Mapleton Golf Club
Scott Hoffman - 2025
Private

After years designing some of Tom Fazio’s best golf courses, Scott Hoffman now has the limelight to himself…and he is making it count.

Scott wasn’t in a hurry to build a follow up to Lost Rail, but when he saw this site in Sioux Falls, SD and saw the vision of Founder Danny Amundson, he knew it was right. A rollicking site with mountains of sand right near town, it’s perfect for golf.

Mapleton, like Lost Rail, is a pure Golf Club. No tennis or pools, it’s about the golf. The golfer IQ is high, which means play is fast and there are some sticks here. We finished in just over 3 hours on a busy afternoon.

The land is made for golf. Sandy soil that drains great and is made to be firm and bouncy. The ground movement is excellent and central to the design strategy. Speed slots and sideboards can be played to gain advantage, you can take on the fairway bunkers or add yardage to stay safe. Slip Up Creek runs through the course and adds strategy and challenge.

The greens are wild. Big greens with many pin positions, the golf course will play so different day to day. The internal contours are no joke, they affect your putts but also can create great options for your chips and pitches. I was saved by them and also punished by them.

A cool Hoffman signature is the clubhouse par 3. At both here and Lost Rail, a gorgeous par 3 tee box sits right in front of the clubhouse. If it’s a busy day on the porch, you may have some hecklers there ready for your tee shot.

The hole variety is excellent. Big holes that demand a good drive and a hybrid for normal players, to a very realistic drivable par 4. You will use every club in the bag. The fairways being wide and the green being large, you won’t lose many balls…but that doesn’t mean your score will be low. It challenges without punishing, the best kind of challenge.

The course still needs grow in time and the rough fescue will need a couple years to really get where it needs to be, but it’s already clear that this place is a huge win. The course is awesome, the clubhouse is amazing, the restaurant is already packing in the members. A 6 hole lit par 3 course will join the fray next year along with 12 single suite rooms in the cottage.

Mapleton is the place to be.

Lost Rail Golf Club - #93/Top 100
2022 - Scott Hoffman

WOW. 🤩

I had heard a lot of hype going in, but you never know how good a golf course is until you’ve walked it yourself. I can tell you, Lost Rail is a top tier golf club in all ways.

The land is incredible, you can tell it was a very challenging routing. Very hilly with constant ravines to work around, Hoffman was able to not only find a cohesive routing, but he somehow made it very walkable.

The conditions are absolutely perfect. The turf was extra lush due to recent rains, but still managed to play firm and fast. Aesthetically the entire golf course is gorgeous, the bunkering and fescue creating a classic look, while the fairways and greens add a modern flair.

I’d describe the play style as modern strategic. Wide fairways mean players won’t have to look for balls too often. But where you land matters, contours often can add 40 yards to your drive if you land in the right place. Safe lines can make a golf hole 50 yards longer. The greens are highly contoured adding lots of fun to the short game.

The club itself is perfect. 275 single golf memberships, it’s uncrowded. 4 hour rounds are the expectation, our foursome walked in well under. There are no houses on the course, just 20 minutes from Omaha you feel like you are out in nature. The service and food and amenities are all excellent and exactly what you want in a golf club.

This was Hoffman’s first solo design, but he spent decades as Fazio’s lead designer on the west coast. His experience designing and building places like Gozzer Ranch really shows, Lost Rail is a masterpiece.

A wonderful day with great friends. One of the best modern golf clubs in the country.

@luke_strako16 for the win 🥇. Not too long ago I remember when Luke said the boys in pink came up clutch, on the final day for a team state title. His 50 footer on the last hole sent a very good @SCCMensGolf to nationals. 😎

Golf is fun in big moments. Every shot matters. 🙌
