-Concrete Tees
-Baskets OK
-Use of elevation and creek add interest
-Nice map at start and at Tee #7
-Cool Covered Bridge

-Several strange transitions between hole / next tee
-Pads just a little small
-Four missing tee signs (#1, 5, 9 and 10)
-Seems space for a full 18 in this park

Centennial Park hosts a decent 12 hole DGC in the central part of Waukee, IA. A multi-use park, the course mostly plays away from these activities. Hole #1 does play along the outfield fence of one of the ball fields, A very errant shot right on #5 could have a playground in play. The big thing to note here are the odd transitions between holes here. From #1 basket, you have to follow the rest of the outfield fence to the north end of the park. #3 tee is almost halfway back down the #2 fairway. #3 to #4 tee is a long walk past a small parking lot. #7 and #8 play on a section of the park on the other side of creek, if you're not paying attention, you might just end up at the tee for #9. The other big I thought I had while throwing here was that with a few adjustments, you could easily add enough to have 18 here. It would, presumably help the transitions as well. Baskets here catch OK, but are showing some age. With a couple of blind tee shots, a few longer holes, it gives some challenge, but is still accessible for a novice. It is a nice city park and would be above average without the missing signage, smallish tee pads and transition issues. Fix these and I could see a 3.5 here. Not a bad option in town, would play again.

Nice tee signs, concrete tee pads.

Most variety of the area courses, plus an additional 3 holes. Most challenging of the 9 holers in the area.

Trash buckets at many tees.

Some water in play.

Hole's one and 2 have a baseball field in play. Hole 3 played far too close to a very busy road. Hole 5 throws directly at a swing set.

Hole 9 had no fairway and the tee sign faces the wrong way. a right handed person can throw an insane hyzer bomb and hope to be high and long enough to miss the ravine.

Hole 10 was missing tee sign

Flow got confusing towards the middle. Especially when you have to cross a creek with no clear way of crossing, just remnants of the base of an old bridge.

I drove around the course 5 times looking for hole one. I finally gave up and started at hole 2. Then I saw a group walking up my fairway. I had to stop and wait for them and I realized they were coming from hole one. The walk from hole 1 to hole 2 has you walk over half of hole 2s fairway.

There must have been a large event recently because the course was littered with lights, generators, porto-potties and other temporary obstacles all over the course.

This is the busiest of the area courses. The later holes were more challenging, but still nothing special.
