Enjoyable Nine-Holer 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 9, 2020 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Two sets of cement tee pads per hole at the well-maintained Faircrest Park. Tee signs are big and bright and the course flows nicely around the park. Baskets are in great condition and are placed nicely among the large trees. There's some nice elevation changes on some holes.

Cons:

Fairways run close to each other. The short tee pads are shorter than the long tee pads. The walking path is close to a lot of the holes.

Other Thoughts:

Faircrest is my new go-to 9 hole course in the area. It's easy to get to and and you can get 18 holes completed in a short amount of time. I only brought fairway drivers my first time and definitely needed something longer for a few holes. Course was in great condition even though there's some new dirt around 9's basket. I like the walking path being used as OB as it tightens up a few holes; the park was almost empty when I played so I did not have to play around walkers or other park patrons. Oh, I like hole 9.

Friendly Vibes at Faircrest 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 1, 2018 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

~Long & Short concrete tee pads
~Clean, well maintained park
~Nice variety, very fun layout
~Appealing to all skill levels
~Restrooms & pavilions close to the parking lot and course

Cons:

~Compact tract of land, many holes play alongside one another
~Newly installed walking path could be potential pedestrian hazard
~Both cons above could create bottlenecks if park is crowded

Other Thoughts:

The newest addition to the Stark County disc golf scene is a good one. A nine holer with long and short tee pads create a fun filled course that should appeal to most every player. The two sets of tee pads make for a wide variety of shots if played as a full 18 course. Holes vary in distance and elevation and weave throughout an open park with a fair amount of mature trees. Plenty of different lines are available on many holes allowing you to work on any shot you want. Great use of the available land and it's hard to find many if not any faults with the final design. The finishing hole is a polarizing one already within the local scene as it plays as a left dogleg mando, 180 degrees out and back to the basket. Gimmicky perhaps, but unique and a solid par hole. Parking lot is between hole 1 and 9 and there are two nice pavilions and porta-a-johns for restrooms all nearby. I can see this course being used for glow rounds, ace races, winter season tournaments, and every day play. It truly is appealing to anyone who enjoys the sport, and is accessible for all skill levels.
