Golf in Kearney

Kearney in Buffalo County is the dominant city of the central Platte River valley and the largest Nebraska city on I-80 between Lincoln and the Colorado border, a community of roughly 33,000 anchored by the University of Nebraska at Kearney. The city's position at mid-state makes it a natural hub for students, agricultural businesses, and travelers. Three golf courses serve Kearney: the private Kearney Country Club, the Elks facility, and the more accessible Meadowlark Hills. Named for Fort Kearny, the first significant military post on the Oregon Trail, the city carries a deep connection to the overland migration history of the American West.
