Golf in Clinton

Clinton is the Clinton County seat on the Mississippi River in east Iowa, historically one of the river's most important lumber milling communities. The city's Gilded Age mansions — built with lumber fortunes in the nineteenth century — and the Mississippi River's presence create the east Iowa river city character. Golf serves the Clinton community in the Mississippi valley 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.
