Golf in Tama

Tama is a Tama County community adjacent to the Meskwaki Settlement, where the Meskwaki Nation purchased their own land in Iowa in the 1840s — a unique circumstance in which a tribe bought back their homeland rather than being resettled on a federal reservation. The Meskwaki's distinct land ownership history and the adjacent agricultural community create a unique central Iowa setting. 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.
