Could use some improvements 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Feb 24, 2018 Played the course:once

Pros:

-Located in a well maintained park with lots of parking
-Makes great use of the land they have
-restrooms on site
-2 very different pin positions for each hole

Cons:

-when its wet, the natural teepads are very slippery
-lack of signage
-tee signs only have hole number, no par, distance or maps
-the baskets for holes 6 and 9 are way too close to the water

Other Thoughts:

I thought this was actually a really fun course! There's obviously a lot of improvements that have to be made in terms of signage and tee pads. There's plans to add 9 more baskets and im looking forward to see how they plan to use other areas of the park. aside from the tees and signs, really love the holes so it will be cool to get to play 9 new holes at some point in the future.

The baskets for holes 6 and 9 need to be moved back from the water at least a couple feet. right now both baskets are within 5 feet of the pond and if you miss your putt anywhere except the front side, you have a 99.9% chance of going in the pond. I hit chains and ended up 15 feet into the pond so RIP my champion dart.

A lot of OB creeks and paths on many of the holes but in my opinion that makes it more fun (except when you cant get your disc out of the pond). Hole 5 is my favorite. Tee of from the top of a hill and go 400 feet downhill to an island green tucked back into the woods.

Has potential 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 27, 2014 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Very little traffic. Provides a variety of shots. Nice scenery.

Cons:

No tee pads. Chains on the baskets are temperamental. No course map- can be confusing for a first time player. Potential to loose discs in the water.

Other Thoughts:

This is a decent course with some potential. Considering this was done as an Eagle Scout project, it's well done. If they add holes, it would be nice to see one or two under 200 ft. You need accuracy because there are plenty of trees to hit. We have friends in the area so we will definitely play this course. If they update the tee pads, I'd definitely raise my rating to 3 stars

Nice, well kept course. 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Jul 15, 2013 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Fairly long and challenging.
Typically well kept.
Nothing really "in the woods", but trees are in play on every hole.
Unique in comparison to other courses in the area.

Cons:

2 baskets (4 holes if you play 18) are right up against the pond. Sending a putt into the pond is actually fairly likely.
If you haven't played before, it can be confusing where to go next (luckily, course maps are frequently available near the 1st/10th tee).
Can have lots of non disc golf traffic: picnics, joggers, dog walkers, and children playing in the ravine that is in play on holes 1 and 4.
No tee pads, personally, I'll take natural grass to cheap rubber or possibly slick asphalt any day. GIVE ME CONCRETE OR GIVE ME GRASS - :)

Other Thoughts:

I just wanted to update this review since it is currently the most recent review. If you are thinking about giving this course a shot but are put off by some of the reviews or the overall rating of the course, know it is in a well maintained park, and it is quite unique compared to other area courses. And while the tees are grass, and there are no "next tee" signs, with the posts you can navigate the course fairly readily. This course is well maintained, fairly long, and as another reviewer states, surprisingly challenging. You may not think so at first, but at the end of your round looking at your scorecard, I'm fairly certain you will agree. And while there are only 9 baskets, the two different tees per basket in most cases make the hole play entirely different. I can't guarantee you'll love the course, but it's worth checking out.

POTENTIAL! 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 3, 2011 Played the course:once

Pros:

Variety of hole design and distances.

Great use of mature trees and terrain.

Park is absolutely beautiful and very well maintained.

Cons:

The tee boxes are very difficult to find, even with a map. There really isnt a box, just a ground marker.

9 baskets for 18 holes. Could be an issue if the course is busy. Luckily we were alone, so we could hunt for tee boxes all we wanted.

Hole 6 and 9 are way too close to the pond. Forces you play ultra-conservative with your approach.

Other Thoughts:

This course has amazing potential within an even more amazing park setting. The tee box markers were easy to find at first, but after 5 holes, we only found one more marker, so we just played basically from basket to basket.

The baskets for holes 6 and 9 need to be moved away from the pond. Each b asket has a grouping of pine trees in front of them. If the basket was moved up into the middle of the trees, the holes would be awesome! As they are now, you cannot afford to go for the pin due the the extreme risk of landing in the pond.

With some maturity and additional upgrades, this course could easily be rated 3.5-4.0 in my opinion. Great job for an Eagle Scout project. Thanks guys! Keep up the great work!

very playable 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 13, 2010 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Some good challenges. Some holes to really drive, and some to take care even from the teepad.

Cons:

Teepads can be difficult to find at times. A couple baskets too close to the pond for recreational play.

Other Thoughts:

Nice course!
