Golf in Boone

Boone is a Boone County city on the Des Moines River with a rich railroad and agricultural heritage. The Scenic Valley Railroad's historic steam trains, Kate Shelley High Bridge — the highest railroad bridge in the nation when built in 1900 — and the Raccoon River valley create a central Iowa river community with distinctive character. Golf serves the Boone community in the central Iowa river landscape. The community's recreational golf culture reflects the Iowa values that have shaped the state's communities: civic participation, accessible outdoor recreation, and the seasonal pleasures of Iowa's four-season climate, where the warm summers and the brilliant autumn days create a golf season of genuine quality.
