Late April 2019 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Apr 30, 2019 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Challenging, fun, best course in southern Delmarva.

Cons:

Tee pads need attention, lots of tight fairways

Other Thoughts:

The course is always well maintained, but the addition of concrete tee pads would make it safer. The current pads are cinders/tiny gravel and have eroded or have holes in them. This course weaves through a pine Forest and the needles keep the fairways free of mud.

Scenic and Challenging 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Nov 16, 2016 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

-Beautiful Course with memorable holes.
-Multiple tee pads from short and easy to long, tight, and difficult.
-Challenges your control and has many different types of shots and angles.
-Hole signs are all present and fairly accurate.
-Arrows under basket help direct you through the course
-Holes are pretty close to each other, so there's not too much extra hiking.

Cons:

-Tee pads could use some repairs (Back tees seem like they never get played, and look ancient)
-Some holes get pretty windy, even on a calm day. (Could be a pro if you like a lot of wind)
-On a few holes, the rough is just disgustingly thick and thorns

great course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Jul 19, 2014 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Very clean park. Course is completely separate from all other park activities.the course allows you lots of different shots. From big haters and anhydrous, to long and strait. You have mid range with trees in just the right spot that require precise aim. Even a couple short holes that an errant first shot could turn a 121 foot hole into a tough three. Multiple pin positions with 3 tee pads to choose from for skills of all level. Billboard at first hole always has score sheets with a map on back to help navigate. Very good signage at all the white pads.

Cons:

While the front nine is very easy to navigate, the back nine can get a little tough. Nine to ten, and fourteen to fifteen are the two that comes to mind. The white pads are a little worn down, and the blue are not used a lot and have some weeds on them.

Other Thoughts:

The course plays completely through the woods. There is brush however it is kept well maintained. I have seen very little poison ivy, and there is little risk of losing discs except on holes 10 and 18. The fairways are tight and pine trees add some difficulty in just the right spots.
Overall, this is my favorite course to play so far. I am glad to have it just 20 minutes from my house and highly recommend it to players of all levels.

Fun pine wooded course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 21, 2013 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Good wooded course among a pine tree forest. Pin positions vary from right and left fade positions. Require a variety of shots and varying length.

Cons:

Some holes are repetitive, and two holes have extremely tight "fairways".

another decent fun time 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 13, 2011 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

This is a course that I try to get to. even if I am not playing any other course in Delaware. I love the landscape and hole challenges. You have to use several skill shots from your bag of tricks.

Cons:

I do not get there often enough.
