Other Thoughts:
Marble Rock DGC (or River Street Disc Golf on the map sign) is a 9 hole gem of a course in a city park in Marble Rock, IA. A good mixture of open / wooded and long / short made for an enjoyable round. Each tee has a large rock and a bench. Holes 1-3 are open with a few trees, 4-8 play in a wooded section of the park and 9 finishes back open. Baskets were good and the tee signage looked new. The gravel tees were a tad tough to get grip on, but a minor flaw. There were also few trash cans to be seen, but I did not see any trash on the course. While there are other activities in the park, the course plays mostly away from it. There was a very cool fire pit between the #5 and #6 fairways that could come into play. Add some concrete tee boxes and a few trashcans and you would have an even better rating. It was a pleasant surprise to find this gem of a course. Enjoyed my round and would play again if in the area.
