A Small Golden Nugget 2+ years

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Jun 23, 2009 Played the course:once

Pros:

This 9-holer is a very short course to work on your approach and putting. #5 has a nice window through the trees and over a creek drive. They use what elevation they have fairly well. Much of this course is in the shade, so it is great for the hot days. You will find the first hole (to your left when driving in) behind you when you park as it is in the strip of land across the road of the main park. After that, navigation isn't too bad. This park is well maintained and clean. Trashcans were readily available and bathrooms by hole #2. The tee signs did show hole number, par, and footage. The cement tee pads were long enough for the hole distances.

Cons:

The sign were stating pars of 4's & 5's with nothing really playing over a 3. That should not be a negative, but it is fair to state that the par was probably set for kids. #9 tee sign was missing, but the grounds crew said it would be back up shortly as they showed it to me. ;) Most of these holes were straight-aways, except for the occasional tree, so a variety of shot selection is not needed here.

Other Thoughts:

The fun factor at this course was surprisingly not bad. I enjoyed the round enough to want to play it again. I don't normally like courses that are this short, but it seemed to be fun to play.

Nice Short Play 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 15, 2008 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

This is a fun short course that can be played rather quickly. All holes are par 3's and easy to get to.

Cons:

A couple of the holes are played close to playground equipment so you need to be alert to what is going on around you.
