Great tee pads. Excellent use of existing elevation and trees. The dgc is under-used, so you can make fairly fast rounds if you can stay out of the rough. Some long holes to work on that big drive.

Nice skate park, ball diamonds, bball courts, splash park and playground.

Just off the E.Main exit of I-74; hotels, shopping, bars & restaurants nearby.

"Prairie Grass" (5 foot tall weeds as thick as you've ever seen weeds grow...seriously) rough bordering several fairways. This rough is the reason the dgc is under-used. Bring some throwaway discs if you're not a pro or don't want to burn a couple hours stumbling around in a high-pollen, low-visibility, breeze devoid jungle of bug infested "natural beauty".

I found the course layout hard to follow my first time playing. Of course, I didn't study the nice big course map posted at tee #1 before I went. It just seemed to be a lot of holes where you putt out, then walk a couple hundred feet, or in one case, a couple hundred yards, to the next tee pad.

Only one "next tee" sign on the course: after #4, you have to take the sidewalk along the south end of the park to get around a creekbed and go to holes 5 & 6, then back around on the sidewalk to get to #7 teepad. It's rather nonsensical... Hey, but at least they put up a sign!

No water fountains or bathrooms once you leave the parking lot/main recreation area. Bring your drinks.

Used to be a high crime area, though there's been big improvements in the last few years. I play this course alone, but you may feel more comfortable in a group.

Did I mention the rough? "Rough" is not the correct term for the "prairie grass"... Beginners can be put off by this stuff; two of the guys I got started WILL NOT play at Kiwanis... Luckily, they will still play other courses.

This course would be a 3.5 without the prairie grass. I've got no problems with defining fairways and making tough pin shots... I do have a problem when you have to spend 2 hours in head-high weeds looking for a disc that only went 10 feet into the rough. A few mown lanes down the middle of and/or across the weed patches would do wonders to decrease player frustratrion and enable disc recovery. There is simply no reason this stuff has to be so overgrown and impossibly thick.
