reviewer: Edmond from Iowa

A nice small town course nestled in the hills sides outside of Ames. This course has plenty of trees, but the fareways remain open and allows a beginning golfer plenty of challenges. The hills hide greens and play can be tricky. It does lack some challenges for amature play such as the lack of sand traps, and doglegs. Overall, it is a fun course to play and the staff will make you fill at home!

"Fun, yet challenging for any level golfer..."
The course will grow on you. The first time I played it, the course kicked my hind-parts. Every hole has a different look and challenge. The fairways and greens are always in great shape, even though they don't overseed in the cold months. Because the course sits high, even though it was built on wetlands, there is always wind, and therefore a challenge. The course will beckon you back time and again. Very nice play and good staff.

I am a member at Sadaquada. The club itself is great, good location, good family scene. The course is 9 holes, and is a fairly simple course. However, they do keep the course in great shape and are constantly working to improve it.

"Overrated!!!"
September 2004.. Just an average course. Not taken care of like it was in the early 90's. Cartpaths nearly undriveable due to broken pavement and potholes. Several greens in poor condition. Sandtraps washedout. Overrated and Overpriced!!!!
