Landsmeer Golf Club, Orange City, IA

Course is average at best with a very dated clubhouse. Course maintenance does not seem to be a priority here. Pretty sure I saw the superintendent only riding around with his dog doing absolutely nothing. Not to mention hearing some racial comments toward some players. Would not recommend the trip, if in the area spend your money at the ridge. Much better facility at the same price.

Landsmeer course lacks consistency between the front and back nine. The front had homes on the fairways and felt very cramped. The back was much more open and played better. The greens were dry, sloped, and fast! The fairways were in great shape!!
Sprinkler heads provided the only yardage markers aside from the tee box signs. They could use some GPS in the carts and/or more yard markers. The Dutch architecture in Orange City gives a cool feel to the area. I liked holes 3,9,10,12,& 15.

Great course! Loved playing it. Can be very challenging as the locals like to nickname it Windsmeer, due to the howling winds that can make your ball go many directions.
