My local course, Barshaw in Paisley, is a nice enough course.
18 holes, no streams or bunkers but it’s narrow and it’s easy to lose a ball over a hedge!
Still… if you get there before 7am you can still play for free i believe. every other time it’s about £11 (approx $15 i think) for the 18 holes.
I used to spend my time wondering, now it’s all used up rendering.
