Reviewed: Played on:Jul 8, 2012 Played the course:once

Pros:

-This course makes good use of the land provided and is well maintained. The 18 basket course covers about 5000 ft (give or take for the wayward toss) and crosses in and out of a park with picnic benches and a small pond. Although the course is relatively flat, constructed in a saddle, there are a few holes (12-15) that curve around the lone hill and make use of the existing landscape.

-All the tees are cement and do a good job of pointing you in the right direction of the next basket.

Cons:

-The park's Aquatic center is right next to the course, and on hot, crowded days people park on the fairway. My fellow frolfers and I had to play around about three dozen cars on the ninth and 10th holes. When we reported this to the main lodge they told us that, unfortunately, water-park-goers take precedence over frisbee-golfers and that's the only parking available.

-Most of the tall grass in the course is deceivingly marsh, not actually grass, so if you wander off the fairway, be prepared to get wet.

-At the time I played this course, there was no 9th tee we could find, even though the map showed otherwise. The map was actually not very helpful; the buildings were not drawn to scale and the course was poorly marked. The maps do, however, have a scorecard on the opposite side, which was nice.
