diamond in the rough 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 11, 2000 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Great short play.
Hardly used, have never seen anyone else playing.
Play in the shade most of the course.

Cons:

County roadside park, so it gets very basic maintenance.
The entire course has been flooded extensively in the past.
No real services in the area, Winthrop is a tiny town.

Other Thoughts:

Fun factor is there, although minimally. The fun factor was definitely upped the day we played as we all witnessed our first Ace on hole #9. Super coarse to stop and throw if you are passing through the area.

give it a try! 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 12, 2007 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

This course is often empty, sits in a nice shady, old growth, roadside parks. nice use of trees, nice mix of open holes, a few tight fairways, some tall grass hazards. Plays in a circular pattern to bring you back where you started.

Cons:

9 holes. Not a "pro" course by any means. If the park is populated with families, they may not be aware of the course.

Other Thoughts:

If your in the area, its worth a play. I have always enjoyed stopping here for a good stretch of the arm and a nice relaxing game/practice.
