Played on:Aug 26, 2008
Played the course:5+ times
Pros:
A fair number of trees to negotiate. Follows a logical route through the park and back to the parking lot. A good balance of right, left and straight holes with a variety of distances.
Cons:
No elevation and fairly wide open.
Other Thoughts:
The course is missing some tee signs and it's difficult to find some of the tees, being marked with timbers buried flush with the ground.
