The Back Nine Golf | Waukee, Des Moines, IA

Back Nine in Waukee positions itself more on the performance side of the indoor golf spectrum. The facility is clean, modern, and built with improvement in mind.

Booked a public tee time and had a blast with my husband and our friends. It’s a great space. Everything is well taken care of and the owners really thought of everything - comfortable seating, side tables, coat racks and golf bag holders. I will definitely be back!
