Wittmann's Funland boasts on its
sign that it was established in 1960. Unfortunately, it appears as if it has
not been maintained since then. The course was more difficult than it
should have been, as peeling-up greens and poor designs made it quite easy to
launch balls off of the course. The anticipated campy fun of visiting
what was clearly a road-trip tourist trap from the hey-day of such attractions
was spoiled by the run-down appearance and the seemingly random scattering of
modern plastic lawn toys around the "Funland,"
giving it a junky, sad feel. The creativity score could have been even lower,
save for the one interesting hole in which one putts through the tines of some
sort of antique threshing machine. A few such machines and wagons
surround the course, reminders that the area, now surrounded by suburban
sprawl, was once farmland. Unless serious renovations are made to Wittman's, if
one is in the area, I advise skipping this one and heading north to either
