The course is kept in better shape than it was 15 years ago and we had a good time playing it.

Very Unfriendly

First the guy working the course is very unfriendly. My wife just asked if we were paired up with a couple that is good at golf because we were playing later in the day because of our pace of play. He said it doesn't matter, when you sign up theough golf now you normally don't get the best of the best and take what you can get. So there's that.

Second the course conditions were subpar at best. I guess I have higher expectations in a golf course than I do my own yard that I don't water. This course is in horrible shape. I'd be embarrassed to pay more than about $15 to play this course. Now I have played this course for years. There have been times that I have paid $41 and it was worth it. Not now. I don't know if I will go back even if golf is $10. I'd rather pay more to play a better course.

Watch your top knot

Has a country, small town course feel. On a few holes the fair ways come close to the on coming tee boxses. An errant tee shot could wound someone. Challenging small greens.

Good course. But the staff could care less about pace of play. The "marshal" was a 15 year boy. No one is going to listen to a kid tell them they're playing 45 min behind pace.

Course is tight quarters

Overall a well maintained course fairways are manicured as well as greens. Be aware of close quarters although. Very easy to hit your ball on opposite fairways. Be aware of others flying orbs when on your own fairway. Between tight quarters and pace of play when behind old players groups of 5 or 6 players which can pretty ridiculous id give it a 4.1 out of 5 just because it's well maintained.

Good time

Course was in good shape for middle of March in Iowa. Got paired up with another genthe man named John who was a great person to golf with. One of the best times I've had golfing in a while. Always a good time here.

This course has some challenging holes

This course played well for us. We were able to play 18 in under 4 hours. The rough was a little longer than the last time we played. Fairways were great.

Short Course

I booked an early Tee time 6:45am. Got there early. Apparently, they don't show up early. I had to wait until 6:45 am as the guy didn't show up until 6:40. The course is a short course, not bad for beginners. The rough was really long. When I hit my ball into the rough it was hard to find. There are many blind shots. Makes it tough to know where you are hitting. The back 9 was nicer than the front. The greens seemed small as well.

Poorly Maintained

Rough is too long and thick. Narrow fairways. Makes play difficult if you are not in the fairway. Difficult to find ball if it isn't in the fairway. Pace of play very slow.

Nice Course

Good course, just got stuck behind a couple slow pairs of people. That said, staff was friendly and the course was well-kept. Still early in the season, but not a lot of tall stuff to lose balls in

Poor experience

Drove 45 minutes in the rain to find out the course was closed. Very disappointed to not get a phone call ahead of time.
