Golf in Schleswig

Schleswig is a Crawford County community in west Iowa with German heritage — the community was named for the Schleswig-Holstein region of Germany by its settlers. The German heritage and the Crawford County agricultural landscape create the west Iowa community identity. Golf serves the Schleswig area's agricultural community. Iowa's agricultural heritage creates a community culture that values both hard work and seasonal recreation, and the local golf course reflects the state's commitment to providing quality outdoor facilities in communities of every size, from the smallest county seat to the largest suburban city. The surrounding landscape of corn and soybean fields, the grain elevators that mark the horizon, and the seasonal rhythms of planting and harvest create the Iowa agricultural context that gives the local golf community its distinctive Midwest character.
