The tee is accessible in the country club - many fellow gawkers were there when I went.

I learned about this place from Atlas Obscura:
(visit link)
More from their site: "The world’s largest golf tee, was placed behind the clubhouse at the Casey Country Club (203 NE 13th St) in 2013. The golf tee measures more than 30 feet from the ground to the top, with a head diameter of 6.26 feet and a shaft diameter of 2.1 feet, and is constructed with yellow pine boards held together by 60 gallons of glue and 120 pounds of screws. The total structure weighs 6,659 pounds."

Casey is the home of many other ginormous everyday objects as well, including a giant golf tee, wind chime, knitting needles and crochet hook, mailbox, birdcage, and rocking chair—all located downtown. I have included pictures!

I visited on the way down to view the total eclipse of 2017.
