Other Thoughts:
Gaukel Park hosts a reasonable DGC in the northern part of Onawa, IA. Play starts near the community center with holes #1 and #2, the rest play across the street mostly in the soccer fields (which make it unplayable when in use for soccer). Fairly typical for a park course with a few trees to work around, the ground here is just super flat. No elevation to speak of. Really, an OK course for a small town. Not a bad course, not a course to challenge most of us. As previous review said, a bagger's pleasure. Play, if you're in the area and want to hit chains, otherwise, you won't miss passing by.
