We provide excellent service in a beautiful surrounding. Take a ride out to the country and enjoy Prairie Lakes Country Club & Inn
"We recently held our wedding and reception at Prairie Lakes Country Club & Inn and everything was amazing. The wedding was held outdoors near the lake and we took pictures in the gazebo. The best part was having the entire country club to ourselves. We were able to negotiate a nice price for the entire property. We took over the Inn, the golf course, the bar, the lounge, the beer garden and of course the restaurant. Everywhere you went our guests were having a great time. Everyone felt like members of this wonderful country club. We would highly recommend Prairie Lakes to anyone having a party of 150 or smaller. They also have outdoor tent facilities for large parties but we ended up with 165 guests and the staff accommodated us nicely. Our wedding would have easily cost double at any club in the city or suburbs"
