Reviewed: Played on:Aug 12, 2023 Played the course:once

Pros:

There are four homemade baskets here. These are actually sort of decent. Kinda. They're single chained but solidly built. They are also about the right dimensions as most actual baskets out there nowadays. These are painted a sky blue color so they're easy to spot if that one tree is in the way.

The "course", aka RV park, was in good condition when we played here.

There's restrooms here so it can double as a pit stop if you're traveling along 61.

Cons:

No tees or pads of any kind obviously. It's not really a course so that's to be expected. That said it's a pretty terrible spot to make up any kind of safari layout due to the RV's that wrap around the area where these baskets are set up.

The baskets themselves don't catch great.

Nothing else worthwhile nearby to play.

The town it's in is impossible to pronounce if you're not from Iowa.

May be unplayable depending on where people park their RV's. Kinda sketchy either way.

Other Thoughts:

This one is a quick bag if you happen to be driving by here. It's not even a good practice area to be honest.

According to Udisc there's another course under development in town here. Whether that's true or not? Who knows, it is Udisc. That might actually make someone want to pull off the highway and add this one too. As is, I wouldn't even bother. If you can even find this course on DGCR since it won't show up for me, even filtering practice areas. Probably for the better tbh.
