Other Thoughts:
Visited on a nice November day with a good friend. The park is easy to find and very inviting with the course starting right past a small parking lot. For a newly completed course this is very well established already. Concrete tee pads, formal hole signs, defined fairways, and plenty of navigational signs to help find your way around with ease. Overall the terrain is moderately wooded with subtle elevation changes, meandering creeks and ditches, and already feels broken in.
It's a traditional wooded course, with fair distances and somewhat tight lines requiring thoughtful disc selection and shot shaping. Numerous dog legs and elevation changes will challenge most players. Solid variety, and the course takes advantage of the land provided. It's a fun course to play and is very repeatable.
Parking at the course entrance is limited, but we had the place to ourselves so it wasn't an issue. A putting basket would be nice, but not necessary. While navigation is a breeze, you do have to cross a two lane road a couple of times. The biggest issue is when coming to Hole 14 which plays over a large running creek there is no bridge or safe passage to cross the water. There are some large rocks to traverse but it's nowhere close to being easy to cross. This limits you from playing 14, 15, and 16 without risking getting your feet and legs wet. I have been informed the Parks Department will be installing safe passage, but I question why the course was officially opened prior to this being addressed.
It's very good for such a fresh new course, and good overall. I can see this place getting improved upon over the next year or two and allowing it to find it's mark alongside the other courses within the area. Although it's not a destination course, it is one I could visit yearly.
