Pros:
Broadmoor Church offers a quick round that can supplement more substantial outings at nearby courses like Greenwood Park and LHC. It's an opportunity to play a bit more in a casual setting after a full 18 elsewhere. The course is ripe for safari play and offers enough obstacles to create some interesting shots in the 225' range when doing so, be it a basket shielded by a small copse of trees or lines traveling over swing sets or volleyball nets. Parking is ample. Baskets are legitimate quality and in good shape.
Cons:
The outlines of a structured course are perceivable but hard to follow. Not all tee signs are numbered, legible, or present, and tees themselves can be hard to spot. With so many baskets visible in such a compact space, it's often hard to determine what basket to throw to from a particular tee. This course is really geared for safari at this point owing to the diminishing presence of signage.
Several holes play right up against fences, neighboring yards, buildings, parking, and a nasty-looking creek, maximizing the potential for conflict and lost discs. As beginner-friendly as the course's distance and undaunting obstacles seem to be, this conflict suggests otherwise.
The course is in a very compact space or runs along narrow offshoots thereof. Even a few other people present (such as the couple playing with their dogs when we were there) make it hard to play the course at all. At a busier time than our Saturday at dusk, the course would likely be unplayable.
The holes themselves such as they're discernable are short and straightforward. This is a course for bagging through and through unless you live in the immediate area and want a bit of practice space.

Other Thoughts:
This is worth a stop after playing a more substantial course like LHC just to wind down and net another notch. It's not much beyond that, though.

Pros:
Beautiful blue powdercoated DGA Mach 5 baskets, a little bit of shade and trees, and a couple of quirky holes.
Cons:
Really is more of a practice facility than a course, it feels like playing in a big back yard with the neighbors' dogs barking when you get too close to the fence.
Other Thoughts:
It's on such a tiny property that it doesn't really feel like a course at all. It feels more like a skills test course. A couple of baskets are very close to the fence (less than 10 feet I think) on the property line and the dogs on the other side don't seem real friendly---I wouldn't hop the fence if I threw over.
