Pros:

The course is a tournament style course. Single rubber tee pads on packed types of gravel which are never muddy, slick, or slippery. They drain very well and the maintenance is top notch. There are two baskets per hole, silver "short", and gold "long", which gives a great variety of options for all playing skills. It is a tight wooded course, but there are plenty of fairways, lanes, and approach shots, so do not be deterred. there have been many improvements to help enjoy your round. There are next tee signs under each basket which helps at this place as the next tees are not directly next to the last basket every time. There are brooms at every tee pad to clean them before throwing which is a great idea due to dirt, stones, and leaves in the fall. At the kiosk at hole one, there is a box with score cards, and each one has a map of the course on the reverse side. Very little, if no trash at all, which only shows the type of volunteers that come through on a regular basis. The round plays in basically three loops, 1-7 / 8-12 / 13-18. Top notch course. There are benches scattered throughout to rest when needed.

Cons:

Signage at the park office and in is needed to show where to go inside the park to easily get to hole one, but a local club member said they are working with the Sate Park on that. The walk from 7 to 8 is not far but is up a decent hill. The walk from 18 back to 1 is a BIG parking lot with a hill, as the course plays over a very large portion of the park. if you carpool, have someone park at 18 so they can drive back to your car at 1.

Other Thoughts:

This course is what it is billed as, a PRO Style Disc Golf Course!
