Golf in Lenexa

Lenexa is a Johnson County suburb in the southwestern Kansas City metro whose evolution from a small farming community to a city of roughly 60,000 represents one of Kansas's most striking postwar growth stories. Known for its annual Spinach Festival — a nod to its horticultural past before suburban development arrived — Lenexa now hosts corporate campuses, a thriving arts district, and a recreational infrastructure that includes four distinct golf facilities. Canyon Farms, Falcon Ridge, Falcon Valley, and Smiley's serve a population with high recreational expectations, set on terrain where the creek corridors and gentle grades of southwestern Johnson County provide more natural variety than the flatter areas of the county's north.
