Pros:
* Golf course feel to several of the holes.
* Different than most of the local courses, in that it's not through the woods.
* 2 water holes (with a third hole for which there is an over water shortcut). Update: Even when I'm taking the overland/hyzer approach I've ended up in the water a few times on 17. There are definitely 3 water holes.
* Some of the holes are absolutely gorgeous
* There are 3.5-4 versions fo the course to play.
- Blue (primary)
- Red (basically beginner version of blue)
- Black (same baskets, played 18->1. The tee locations make the holes completely different to the blue course - apart from blue 4/black 15, which is very similar.)
- Safari (in U-disc - much longer version of the course, with several par 4s and a couple of par 5s. This is the best version of the course, but some baskets are reused and some aren't used at all. It's definitely not a version that would support more than two groups at a time.)
Cons:
* Temporary baskets / natural tees. Update: Actual baskets! Still natural tees though, which can be slippery. Update update: Now the blue course has tee boxes or concrete for all but one hole (14). I've upgraded my rating based on the two biggest strikes being addressed.
* Congestion for holes 3-5. If the course is crowded this could become an issue, but it's not often crowded.
* The holes have a clear intended shape for how each hole should be played (which is good), but a particularly awful first shot generally just means that your second shot is longer. A bad shot isn't punished as hard as it could be if more obstruction were available.
* Update: Discs started disappearing from the pond recently. It used to be the case that I'd eventually get a call that my disc had been retrieved. I don't know if shittier people are now pulling out discs and not returning them, or if I've just gotten worse about throwing deeper into the pond.)
Other Thoughts:
The front side has more elevation changes than the backside (though it's generally a gradual and consistent slope, apart from the hole 7 which is varied and steep in some places). The backside has more variety, but there are groupings of similar holes.
It's my favorite course to play in the area, by a wide margin. This is largely because of how most of the courses have been carved through woods whereas this course was planned around a park. It's very beginner friendly because of the openness, but it's also got enough distance and danger to challenge an experienced and capable player.
