The new Lower Cato Falls DGC is scheduled to open on Sunday, June 13, 2010. Here's a slideshow of the pre-installation layout (http://www.photoshow.com/watch/hW7HU3wu), and the course's website (http://discoverwisc.com/manitowoc/catofalls/) has more info for anyone interested.
This looks to be a relatively open course, much like the Indian Creek course (http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=2723) that was recently installed in the area in 2007 (and has received less-than-stellar reviews), with a few wooded holes and some gentle elevation changes. I haven't actually been to the property, though; I'm just going on my observation of the course map (http://discoverwisc.com/manitowoc/catofalls/images/cato_falls.pdf) and the above slideshow link. Sadly, it looks as though the falls from which the park gets its name will not be in play on any of the holes, which is probably more due to the fact that the county wouldn't allow it more than poor design implementation.
Thank you to all volunteers, sponsors, and the Manitowoc DG scene for making this happen!
