Don't try to play without a local 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 4, 2017 Played the course:once

Pros:

Some interesting shots, variety of distances, beautiful campus, most of the baskets are in good shape.
Good practice area.

Cons:

Tees are mostly very hard to find, or no longer exist. Tees are just numbers on stones with no distances marked.
Fairways are over paths or very close to buildings.

Other Thoughts:

Most of the back 9 were so similar to the front that it seemed redundant for them to even be there.
I probably would have spent a very long time looking and eventually given up, if I had not had the fortuity to run into a long time local player just as I was about to start. He showed me around the course, and told me that the grounds crew have removed tees that interfered with their mowing,
Take the map and if you can't find a marker within a minute then just make up your own hole (deduct one from each hole number on map).

2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 21, 2011 Played the course:once

Pros:

Nice course with some fun and unique shots, such as throwing through a tunnel, which I believe to be the signature hole. Dual tees increases it from 9 to 18. Many obstacles such as trees and buildings making some holes a little more technical.

Cons:

Very difficult to find markers in the ground as the tee stations. Could use signs to identify holes. Had it not been for joining up with some locals I would never have found my way through the course. Several holes throwing over walkways, must be very careful as not to hit anyone. Buildings also come into play on several holes. No long holes to air it out.

Other Thoughts:

They have done a good job with what they had to work with. Not too many options as far as course layout on such a small campus.
