Fun course, not far off route 81 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 11, 2020 Played the course:once

Pros:

Reasonable mix of open and lightly wooded holes. Good use of elevation. Mowed routes through heavy rough between holes. Wide fairways. Didn't seem like there would be much conflict with non-disc-golfers, except if there was a ball game.

Cons:

Almost no "next tee" signage, can be difficult to navigate. No maps at hole 1, probably due to Covid-19. Take a picture of the board map. Was fairly dry today, but it looks like the course could be wet after a rain. Course has 18 pads, and 9 baskets. Was fine playing this afternoon, but might be a problem on weekends or other busy times.

Other Thoughts:

Advanced players would probably find this course fairly simple.As an older beginner, who doesn't enjoy long holes, I found it to be fair. It was pretty windy when we played today, which made throwing at 8/17 tricky. The course is just a short drive off of 81. If you're driving by, it's worth a stop,

Great for Beginners 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jan 28, 2020 Played the course:once

Pros:

All of the holes now have 2 sets of concrete tee pads, providing two pretty different looks for each of the nine baskets. Played in pretty sloppy winter conditions and had no traction issues on pads. Nice mix of open and partially wooded holes. Not too many places where I think you might lose a disc. Some reasonable distances for an older beginner like myself, giving even me a chance to birdie some par 4's that would simply be unreachable par 3's on other courses.

Cons:

Sloppy fairways and greens on a majority of holes, definitely does not drain well, which is probably why the space was available. Can be pretty confusing for the first time player to find the next tee pad. There are markers hanging on baskets telling you which is the general direction to each of the two following tees, but they are printed on paper inside of plastic sleeves so quite a few are missing or water logged. Tee signage does not indicate OB and hazard areas.

Other Thoughts:

Great resource for anyone looking to play a round. Will be curious to see how wet it stays come spring/summer. Some nice challenges for a beginner, not sure how much so for an advanced player. Like most courses, a few rounds played will save some time and stress when searching for next tee. Great use of 9 baskets to provide two pretty unique 9's with the dual tee pads.

Work in progress 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 22, 2018 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Course is coming together nicely. Concrete tee pads are slowly being installed. Good mix of long and short holes.

Cons:

Heavy brush and tall grass along fairways make disc searches a nightmare. Some holes very very muddy. Course could benefit from some directional signage.

Other Thoughts:

This looks like it will be a fine course once construction is completed.

Amother unique course in central PA. The More the better I feel. Some really nice looks at basket and can just play nine if short on time.
