The baskets are definitely a pro as they are brand new Innova DISCatcher Pro 28 baskets. The yellow color helps them stand out in this environment which is in contrast to nearby courses. The tee signs are informative and look nice. The variation in the length of the holes is nice as there are some holes that you can ace run as well as holes that require a few good shots to birdie. There are some helpful "next tee" signs which assist in the navigation. This course does have a few par 4 holes and a par 5 which is in contrast to the other courses in the area which might have one par 4 at most.

The biggest con at this point, in July 2018, is that there are only concrete tee pads on holes 1, 10, 17, and 18. The rest of the tee areas are marked fairly well, but are basically a few inches of fine dirt. This dirt can hide some of the bumpiness beneath and make for a stumbling, awkward run up to the tee shot. The next biggest con for me is that this course is very flat and has next to no elevation changes which is in contrast to other courses in the area. There are other minor cons like the tee signs not indicating the position that the baskets are in. Another small issue is that the navigation from 10 to 11 and also from 15 to 16 can be a bit tricky.

This course was underwhelming for me. Don't get me wrong...when you travel from the 110+ degree Phoenix weather and play in the 70-degree Flagstaff weather, it is hard to complain at all. I just feel like the NAU course, Thorpe course, and especially the McPherson course, are superior to this course. The holes tend to be a bit left hand backhand or right hand forehand friendly. Since I am comfortable throwing right hand backhand and right hand forehand, this wasn't a pro or a con, but just something to be aware of when you play this course. Personally, many courses are friendlier to right hand backhand throwers, so to have a course that favors the other side is fine by me. There are several bathrooms with private, locking stalls, that are contained in a building. However, the toilets in the building are actually just porta john toilets with no running water, but they are helpful nonetheless and more room than a typical porta john. While this course is rated a "3" by me, I would definitely bump it up to a "3.5" once all the concrete tee pads are in installed.
