+ A full 24 holes of fun disc golf, up and down hills and through the woods.
+ An old-school course where most holes are under 250 ft., which should provide an enjoyable experience for nearly all skill levels. Slower arms will have their great drives rewarded with birdies, while more advanced players can refine their midrange and putter angles and go for ace runs. This would be a great place to have a fun and relaxing round with a small group of varying skill levels.
+ That said, holes 11, 13, and 16 are much longer wooded holes that will certainly test advanced players, and definitely stand out in comparison.
+ While the middle and back 9s are entirely wooded and technical, the front 9 is much more open, though trees and OB still guard baskets and lines. Hole 1 is an especially fun 340 ft. drive to start off the round.
+ Good use of elevation, without ever being excessive. Multiple across-the-valley shots are particularly fun.
+ Generally clean fairways, and rough that isn't excessively punishing.
+ Quite a few holes have multiple pin positions, to change up the experience from time to time. The current position is marked by a washer on the tee sign, I think they were up-to-date on my visit.
+ Thanks to hard work from the local club, the course has recovered very nicely from the direct tornado strike a few years ago. Very glad that disc golfers can now return to enjoy this course.
+ Concrete tees, solid baskets, solid tee signs, many benches, all good amenities here.
+ Holes 8 and 24 are the unquestionable highlights for me here. Hole 8 is a slight turnover that plays along the side of a steep slope, with an elevated basket. I normally hate holes with this kind of rollaway potential, but this one is a thrilling balance of that risk. Then after almost a full 18 in the woods, hole 24 finally opens up, and you gaze across a ravine to the basket on the other side. Almost like a mini-Renaissance-Gold, but more forgiving, and a wonderful way to end the round.

- The first 7 holes play along and across walking paths, and other heavily used sections of the park, bringing some safety concerns. Please be cautious and respectful when throwing.
- Some very long hole transitions made navigation extremely confusing at times, particularly on the front 9, but in other spots as well. I saw a few arrows pointing from baskets to next tees, but they were extremely small and easy to miss, and entirely missing from many places. In particular, getting to holes 4 and 5 was not apparent at all without closely studying a map, as they require long walks across the entire open section of the park.
- This is a very old-school course, with most holes under 250 ft. Advanced players could probably birdie nearly everything with just a single putter. I can see how this would've been an exhilarating course when it opened over 20 years ago, as it's much wilder and has more elevation than many of the similarly-aged city-park-bound courses elsewhere. But in today's modern disc golf, it feels a little outdated, quaint, and simplistic. Only a small handful of holes will sufficiently test today's disc golfers.
- Not much hole variety in the woods. There's straight shots and hyzers, up and down hills, all around 250 ft., and you've quickly exhausted the design possibilities. With only a couple of small exceptions, holes 10-23 are an undifferentiated blur in my mind.
- A few holes had permanent long basket positions, that I wish I'd known about from the tee. They seemed extremely challenging, a massive departure from how the rest of the course plays. Hopefully newcomers don't overlook the short pins and play to these by accident.
- One or two of the wooded holes had baskets that were perhaps overzealously guarded by large trees, making birdie looks more about luck than skill. I'm not sure exactly which holes, again this section of the course was kind of a blur to me.

Playing this course back-to-back with a modern course like The Bear across town feels like stepping into a time machine. I would enjoy coming here with a little shoulder bag of DX Rocs and Aviars, and maybe a Whippet or Viper for those cheating forehands. But modern disc golf has largely left courses like this behind, as the lack of hole and distance variety just feels too simplistic now. I would no longer consider this to be a top NC disc golf destination, outside of history or nostalgia. But I'm still glad that it was resurrected after the tornado, for disc golfers of all skill levels to relax on and enjoy for even more decades to come.

Difficult to think of anything I like

Tough, Trees,hilly,mud,water and roots plus bitting things. Bring bug spray. Use old disc you don't mind losing. Use old disc you don't mind hitting trees with. I understand a few trees but this is more like a wall. You need square disc to prevent seeing them roll back past you on some holes.

I don't plan to play this course again but it is still more fun than a day at work.
