Reviewed: Played on:Sep 26, 2014 Played the course:once

Pros:

Great course located just east of Waterloo.

- technical
- good layout
- mostly wooded with a handful of open holes
- some moderate elevation
- short & long tees
- tees are in good condition (several were replaced spring 2014)
- nice baskets
- clean
- decently scenic
- lots of local involvement
- nice shelter
- located right off highway

When it's all cleaned up and bug free, it really is a fantastic course.

Cons:

- bugs can make it unbearable to play at times
- city can be bad about mowing
- could be better marked for unfamiliar players
- shared parking with softball diamond, can get crowded during the summer

Other Thoughts:

Bad flood spring 2014 destroyed a lot of the landscaping and left the course over-run for most of the summer, relief work has slowly continued to be done since
