Nestled along the Loup river on the SW part of town, you’ll find the first golf course built in Columbus. Located in historic Pawnee Park, Van Berg Golf Course was built in 1928 on property donated by Marion Van Berg, holder of horse racing’s most career wins by an owner.
The golf course has well conditioned fairways with small, faster than average greens. The 5800 yard layout makes Van Berg GC the perfect place for beginners, juniors, super seniors, and anyone else wanting to get in a quick nine.
Van Berg GC also plays host to a Monday Men’s League, a Thursday evening “Girls Night Out” golf league and new in 2025, a couples league on Friday evenings at VanBerg. You can find more information relating to these and other leagues by going to the top of this page and looking under the “Leagues” tab.
