Reviewed: Played on:Jun 6, 2012 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Played this course several times. I have shot -7 to +15 on 9 holes depending on the wind.
The trees are slowing growing and becoming more of an issue. (good as trees don't grow well in this area of the U.S.) It's in a park with sprinklers so the trees have a good chance.

Park: City park so it's always maintained and grass is cut and trimmed around signs and baskets.

Tees: Nice concrete tees.

Baskets: ChainStars seem to hold faster shots. Good choice given the wind here.

The course feels like you are on a stick golf course with all the nice large houses backing the course. I even had a couple of guys barbecuing on their back deck and betting on me to make or miss my putt.

Hole 9 is one of the toughest holes as the trees are getting larger and coming into play.

OB: Even though the course is pretty wide open your errant shots can still find the OB. All holes have a walking path that is out of bounds. Doesn't really come into play unless you have a gorilla arm or fight the wind.

Speed of Play: The course flows well and can be played in 45 minutes. Not a lot of traffic on this course either.

Signage: Nice signage as the holes are clearly marked and easy to follow. Nice park sign with a course map as you come in to the park.

Cons:

Wind! I played a turnover shot on hole 5 and ended further away than when I started.
It can be easy on a calm day.

Other Thoughts:

Nice use of a park with a walking path in the middle of it. This is a good layout given the area and lack of trees. Trees were planted in 05 and more have been planted since. Given some time this course should be a challenge. I've heard rumors they might be expanding the course to 18 when the walking path gets extended.
