One of my favorite 9 hole courses in the area 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 22, 2011 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Nice baskets and tee pads, well maintained, nearly impossible to lose a disc (unless the river is up), restrooms, generally shady, quick nine holes, feel good about your score card, have a decent chance at an Ace on at least half the course

Cons:

No signs, baskets do have numbers above them so once you've played it 1-2 times you'll be fine on the layout, a couple shots can put you in danger of hitting people around the basketball court, pretty short runs on most of the course, not every basket has a long tee even though there is ample room to provide one to lengthen some of the ridiculously short shots (Hole 9 especially)

Other Thoughts:

I love playing this course b/c it's quick and easy, sometimes use it as a warm-up on my way to an 18 hole course, great place for beginners or taking the girlfriend a long, also the ideal place to try out new discs or practice specific techniques b/c so short

Small but nice and fun 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Nov 23, 2008 Played the course:once

Pros:

-If you are in a hurry this course is good.
-Very easy to find, on major road.
-Nice cement tees and nice new baskets.
-Good chance for hole in one on most holes.
-Large, mature trees on every hole.
-No chance for losing a disc.
-Playground, water play area for kids.
-NIce restrooms and drinking fountain.

Cons:

-It is very short and overall a small course. They did good with what they had to work with though.
-Not alot of obstacles, most holes are pretty much straight shots.
-Not alot of shot variation.

Other Thoughts:

Great course for beginners but if you have some experience playing the game I would not recommend this course. That is unless you are seeking a hole in one because many of these holes are easy to get close on.
