Reviewed: Played on:Aug 18, 2009 Played the course:once

Pros:

-Nice, new baskets
-Gets the sport more popular with the gym kids
-located near sunnyside, basset and plymouth creek park
-very close to the wonderful gotta go gotta throw store which is just north of here
-has an interesting fast green: on a very steep hill that leads to a water tower

Cons:

-no tees
-lots of kids everywhere from about 3-7 pm august to november
-short with no distance and only 1 challenging hole; the fast green one
-no trees, water, or anything else in the way
-no bathrooms or garbages on course but you can find both at the nearby school

Other Thoughts:

I didnt find any tees and I played with no snow on the ground. It would be good to have near your house if you wanted to practice but this barely qualifies as a course due to lack of tees. This course is basically closed in the spring and fall from 3-7 pm due to kids sports practices. I showed up at 6:30 thinking they would be done and ended up waiting over a half hour to get on the course. It weaves through the sports practice fields making it impossible to throw without hitting someone.

Do not follow the directions of google maps. They are correct until the end. When you see Hopkins Junior/Senior high drive all the way to the back of the parking lot and you will see the track/football field and the course is behind/left of that.

Pros:

It is located near many other courses. Also it is at a highschool which makes it good for getting the sport out there.

Cons:

We could only find 9 holes that were labelled 10 through 18. There could be another 9 out there somewhere but we didn't find them.
Course is super super short. We couldn't find any tees to play from, but that could be because there was snow on the ground.

Other Thoughts:

If you play here and can't find any tees, you can probably just play from hole to hole.
