Baxter Sports Complex - Fort Madison, Iowa

This was my first visit to this complex. My great nephew was playing flag football on Field 2 (last field). Very impressive facility. However, I have one question and one suggestion. Why does the sidewalk stop before fields one and two? It would be nice to have another entrance/exit gate and possibly a small snack shack at the end by Fields 1 & 2. My mother is 85 and uses a walker and would love to come watch him play but could never walk that far. Not to mention it goes up hill on the way back out. And if you end up parking at the east end of the lot, you have to walk twice as far. So not very accomodating to elderly or disabled.

Really nice complex. Fields are far enough apart you don't have to worry about foul balls from other fields hitting you or disrupting games. Concession stand was great. Just gets bogged down when whole teams go in after games.

The soccer fields lack the drainage needed to survive midwestern spring. There are times that even with soft ground cleats you still cannot find purchase on the field. This and overuse of some fields have nearly ruined them. They do have an amazing snack bar area and plenty of parking.

An awesome sports complex in Southeast Iowa. Very clean and very family friendly. Jeff does a great job managing the softball/ baseball tournaments.

It's disappointing to have to pay to watch kids play sports or have to pay for siblings that never watch the games

Edit Keokuk (free) Montrose (free) Donnellson (free) Farmington (free) West Point (free) and other sports that are not at the complex (free) They make their money for upkeep and uniforms selling items out of the concessions and it's the principal not the amount

Facilities was nice.....they serve beer at concession stand, which is nice for some folks. Problem being is the folks who cant handle it. Had a mother of a 12 and under softball team who was dropping the F bomb at the ref. I had to intervene.

The layout is horrible. We usually end up having to park way back in the lot then walk all the way up thru the gate then back down on the inside to the point where we parked in the first place. Then to use the bathrooms you have to go all the way back up and thru the building to the other side.

Nice soccer field but not enough bleachers for fans. But it still a great venue for a tournament. Just bring a seat.
