Nice in-town links-style course. Greens & fairways are typically in really good shape. Clubhouse is one of the nicest in the area for sure. And youd be hard-pressed to find a golf course in Iowa with more beautiful homes surrounding it. I know its pretty standard for municipal courses to space tee times ~8 minutes apart, but for $54/person, I feel 10 minutes is probably more appropriate. If youre in a faster group of 4 people (or even a slow two-some), be prepared to wait on every tee during peak times. I was there recently on a chilly Sunday late afternoon, and it took over 2 hours 30 minutes to complete the front 9. They do have an official starter most of the time, which is helpful. But for whatever reason, almost no courses in the state have marshals. Some groups just need to be told to speed it up or let people play through. The course itself has a nice modern feel to it, and offers enough challenge for experienced players, while allowing enough forgiveness for lower skill levels.

Prices dont match their websites tee time scheduler. I tried signing up for an $18 tee time for 1-2 players with a cart and the site wouldnt work, so I called to verify that the time existed and explained that the site wasnt working. Was told that I could take that tee time by phone with no issues. Showed up the next day and the people in the golf shop wouldnt honor the deal because "the website was wrong and shouldnt have even shown that price or time available" and was then offered less golf at almost twice the original price. Terrible experience and poor customer service.

The course was in good condition, greens were quick but readable. However, the waiting time was obscene. We were 20minutes late to tee off and they staggered tee times every 6 minutes. I was barely off the tee box before the next group hit their drives. After the front 9 (almost 4 hours!!!) the back 9 opened up and finished on pace. Would play again, but either the first tee time or the last...

We had our Cornerstone of Hope Orphanage golf outing at Otter Creek this year. The staff was great and everything was very smooth. They had the golf setup so it was well organized and the lunch and dinner was on-time and everyone said it was good! We will be back.

Very, very nice course. Beautiful club house. Easy check in, cheerful and helpful restaurant staff, nice and professional starter. They make it look easy. Wish every business could be this well run.

Course is wonderful! Expect to wait... even with 2 starters they DO NOT monitor play. From hole 9 to 10 TWO groups were allowed to play ahead. We were to, "they were told to hurry plau"

Our entire group enjoyed the course, it was in great shape and the meal afterwards. I would recommend this course to anyone and everyone. Congratulations to the entire staff.
