Reviewed: Played on:Mar 13, 2009 Played the course:once

Pros:

Nice course layout, very nice baskets, variety of holes, great for beginners (not too technical) yet offers some challenges for advanced players, great integration of river/creek on the few holes it is in play.

Cons:

Dirt tees are very difficult to find, no practice basket, you have to cross the road several times between holes to go to the next group of holes, I don't recall any trashcans, hole 1 tee and 18 basket are far from parking lot.

Other Thoughts:

This course offers a little bit of variety with most holes playing through/around mature growth. It is forgiving for those errant throws as you will still have a look at the basket. The course design took advantage of all the park has to offer; a few elevation changes, the river, and the low ceiling tunnel shots.

One thing that annoyed me was the fact that I had to cross the road several times to go to the next set of holes, however, I believe this was necessary in course design to allow room for all 18 holes.

The signage on the teeboxes was nice for the ? holes that had it (maybe half), but the other half of the holes only had wooden plates level with the ground designating where the tee is for those dirt tees, They were very difficult to find and easy to overlook. It definitlely helps to print out a map before playing.

I found the course to be somewhat easy, but I had a great time playing it and would make the trip to play again (1 hour drive). Concrete tees to replace dirt tees would be an excellent addition.

Pros:

Course is newer. There are alternate tees on a few holes and the concrete tees have nice signs showing where the baskets are. Nice Baskets.

Cons:

Several holes run next to a creek that you can easily lose a disc in. (I did!) Several holes run parallel to each other could be easy to hit someone. Dirt tees can be hard to find.

Other Thoughts:
