Pros:
-Tiny city park along the flood plain of the fox river and some decent views
-concrete pads
-Holes 5 and 6 (the holes by the basketball court) are actually pretty decents. 5 is a kind of tight short straight shot , 6 is a downhill putter or mid shot. Nothing tricky, just a nice change of pace from the rest of the course
Cons:
First, let me explain the park. It is very small with houses and private property on the edges and the course plays on either side of the road. Many of the tee pads or baskets are located near people's backyards, which was kind of creepy. For instance the pin for 4 is in someone's side yard, 9 is by someone's backyard, 6 tees by the side of a house. etc. you get the idea.
-Secondly, not one of the tees had signs. All of the teesigns had been pried off. Therefore you had no idea the distance the location of the pin (which wasn't a problem until hole 7-9), or whether you were in the right place.
-Hole 7's basket was gone, I looked all around for it, but couldn't find it or even where it was supposed to be.
-The layout was kind of screwy, not hard to follow, but 9 crosses 8's fairway, and there is no signage between 2 pin and 3 tee and it's not in sight from the basket.
Other Thoughts:
All in all, this course was terrible. Between the vandalism and throwing near people's yards, and not knowing where to park, (for future reference, park in the lot on the right side of Superior, across the street from hole one, by the bathrooms and water fountains) it was hard to give this course any recognition. It was almost like one of those courses that they put in for foot traffic to keep hoodlums and vandals away, but it didn't work because there was still vandalism and they didn't think of actually designing it in a fun or interesting way. I rarely drag on about courses this way ,after all, I have fun throwing the discs, but this was a sorry excuse for a course.
