Agin course to play. Greens had been plugged and overseeded recently - the major drawback.

This is an excellent course. It is set in rolling wooded terrain and has a wide variety of holes. It is part of the Amana Colonies just northwest of Iowa City. Definitely one of the top courses in this part of Iowa. Well worth playing. You can follow my other eviews at golfsliced.com and spygolfer.com.
