Welcome to the Tournament Club of Iowa
Central Iowa's newest and most exciting residential golf community. Nestled in the wooded, rolling terrain near Big Creek Reservoir, The Tournament Club of Iowa combines the peaceful beauty and spectacular views of country living with a casual recreational lifestyle. Golfing, hiking, biking, swimming, sailing, and fishing are just a few of the activities awaiting you…right outside your front door.

History in the Making
Tournament Club of Iowa promises to be a premier residential community as well as golf venue of national prominence. It combines the development knowledge of two prominent Midwestern firms - Knapp Properties Inc. (KPI) of West Des Moines and Enebak Construction of the Twin Cities and its golf affiliate, Tradition Development.

Working together, Knapp and Enebak have created a vision for a residential golf community that appeals to growing families as well as empty nesters and career-minded up and comers. Home sites are being developed in a wide range of shapes and sizes - from executive lots to townhomes. You can have a view of the fairway or build in the seclusion of a scenic timbered lot.

The Development Team
In showcasing this development, KPI draws on 50 years of real estate expertise and a penchant for quality, vision and integrity. As one of the state's largest residential and commercial developers, KPI takes great care to ensure that every aspect of every project is well-planned and meets the highest standards for developmental protocol, quality of life, and environmental balance. KPI professionals have been involved in successful residential communities throughout Greater Des Moines, including Country Club in Clive, West Lakes in West Des Moines, Napa Valley in Dallas County and Timberline in Urbandale. These projects played a significant role in the growth and expansion of Greater Des Moines, adding thousands of new homes as well as retail and commercial development.

By teaming with Enebak and Tradition, KPI introduces a respected, three-generation earthwork contractor and development expert to Central Iowa. The company has a resume that features the preparation of more than 20,000 residential lots and the construction of several tournament-rated golf courses during the past 25 years. Like KPI, Eneback and Tradition work with the best names in the business, including Arnold Palmer, whose development company is designing Tournament Club of Iowa.

A Signature Course
As an Arnold Palmer Signature Course, Tournament Club of Iowa is designed to be challenging, yet appealing to a wide cross-section of golfers, the course winds through gently rolling hills, dramatic bluffs and punctuating timberlands. Big Creek already meanders through the 500-acre golf and residential site, and several new lakes will be added to enhance the layout of the course. The golf course and the residential community will maintain separate roadways, avoiding mixed traffic and other inconveniences.

Country in the City
Polk City, home of Tournament Club of Iowa, is Central Iowa's city by the lakes. Bordered by Saylorville Lake and the Big Creek Reservoir, Polk City offers the charm and intimacy of small town life, complete with an historic town square.

For all of its ambiance, however, Polk City remains close to the hub of activity with travel times to downtown and the western suburbs ranging from only 15 to 25 minutes. Located between Ames and Des Moines, Polk City offers a balance for commuting families looking to reduce their stress and drive times. A newly constructed access ramp from Highway 141 reduces the time it takes to get to and from the western suburbs and neighboring communities, while a paved road from the Elkhart exit on Interstate 35 provides a direct route to Polk City and the lakes.

Polk City is part of North Polk Schools. Though small, North Polk consistently scores above the state average on the Iowa Test of Basic Skills. In recent years, several families from neighboring districts have opted for open enrollment to take advantage of North Polk's smaller class sizes, more personalized attention and extra-curricular activities.
