Aerial view of the North Kossuth golf course

The Course

One parkland property, two distinct nines. Play the front, play the back, or take on the full eighteen.

Two Nines, One Clubhouse

North Kossuth is a nine-hole club with a difference: the front nine and the back nine are two separate layouts, each with its own character. Play either one on its own, string them together for a full eighteen, or keep your all-day ticket in your pocket and come and go as you please.

The ground is flat and honest — Iowa prairie, no hill to climb and no carry you can't judge. That makes it a good place to learn the game and a good place to work on a shot, and it keeps the round about the golf rather than the terrain.

Front Nine & Back Nine

Two separate nines — each a round in its own right.

Holes 1–9
The Front Nine
Wide, welcoming fairways and a gentle start that lulls you into a false sense of security. A fine nine on its own for a quick session, and a fair yardstick for anyone who claims they're playing well.
Holes 1–9
The Back Nine
The same flat, honest Iowa ground with a different walk, and the stretch that brings you home within sight of the clubhouse windows. Play it after the front and you've earned the full eighteen — and a cold drink at the bar.

Par

Par is 35 for men and 40 for women. Yardage is measured from the back tees.

Hole Highlights

The two ends of the card, and the nine that sits between them.

Hole 1
The Longest
A par 5 stretching 476 yards — the longest hole on the card, and the one that sets the tone for the whole round.
Hole 6
The Shortest
A par 3 at 141 yards. Nowhere to hide and nothing to fiddle with: a clean strike is all it asks for.
The Full Nine
2,785 Yards
Nine holes playing 2,785 yards from the back tees with a slope rating of 97 — short enough to enjoy, long enough to matter.
