Other Thoughts:

Centennial Park houses a reasonable DGC in the north part of Huxley, IA. Originally on the very north edge of town, the neighborhood to the north has filled in. The course plays in the eastern part of the park around several other activities. For the most part, play stays away from these. There is a sand volleyball court along the right side of #2. There is a playground behind and right of #4, but would be a pretty errant throw to come into play. You do tee over the walking path for #5 which could come into play again on an errant long throw on #9. The other knock is on signage. The DGA "Peel n stick" (TM) are usually adequate, but here are missing par and distance. #5 is missing a sign altogether. #6 direct you to the #7 basket (#6 is pretty straight forward and slightly left). For what it is, a starter course in a city park, it is OK. There is some variation on distance. A blind tee shot for #3 with a sharp left right off the tee adds some interest. Lines on #7 make you think about the trees to work around. #8 is tucked in to the right behind a tree, so another blind tee shot. Add some concrete pads, upgrade the signage and this would be OK. No championship course, but it's not trying to be. A course I would play if it was close by, but there are a lot of other courses not too far away. I might play here again.
