Ive played golf a lot of places and I am ecstatic to say that this is my new favorite course - ironically in the small hills outside of Amana, IA. Miles from ordinary, this course will literally take your breath away. Its located on the top of a hill, in the middle of a forest - definitely not what youd expect! Rated 72.9 w/ a slope of 142 @ 6800+ yards from the tips, its a great players course and requires that you come to play. The course had tight fairways that were literally cut straight out of the forest. The holes each had character and really made you think about how you were going to play each shot. A lot more strategy went into playing than anywhere Ive played in a long time. You really choose to lay up or go for it with true risk/reward on a majority of the holes. The rough was impeccably kept and generally lead into the underbrush that consumed many a ball, but lead to the discovery of many more! The greens were simply put - magnificent. Soft enough to hold approach shots, but firm enough to make putting a challenge. The read true and roll is amazing. Props to the groundskeeper who really knows what he or she is doing. On three of the holes we saw deer grazing or walking by and as the course is in the middle of the forest, the serenity was amazing. This is the sort of place that will be full and youll see 6 people all day as everything is very well spread out. The serenity was only topped by the picturesque holes and views from many of them. The 17th and 18th have views of the clubhouse over a lake and made for one of the most memorable walks Ive taken in along while! Riding is a must as the hills on the course (I know, weird its in Iowa) would quickly take their toll. The carts are gas powered and come with GPS that gives front, middle and back distances. When you purchase food and beverage inside, you can grab a cooler and its nice to have on the way! Water is available on the course roughly every 3-4 holes. If you love golf, play this course, if you like golf, play this course, if youre interested in golf, play this course! Simply put, this is my new favorite course and I guarantee that if you appreciate a good walk spoiled, youll love this place like I do!

Gorgeous course through the woods. A lot of dogleg left holes and several uphill second shots to the greens. Very tight track. Its a little bit of a journey to get there, but its worth it. Cool practice green where they have normal-sized holes and smaller ones to help with accuracy.

Amana is one of the best courses in the country. Green fees are super reasonable and golf is challenging but certainly enjoyable. Worth the trip for all golf enthusiasts.
