Some of the prettiest, best land for a disc golf course anywhere. Hole 1 plays to a basket which is on top of an earthen dam - killer view of the lake. Hole 2 proceeds along the same dam to a basket tucked up into the woods just a little bit. Both are long enough that you could conceivably put the lake into play, but it shouldn't be too hard to stay safe. From there, you get into the woods, and some killer elevation too. Holes 3 and 4 are "gravity"-style uphill shots with a steep (30 degree, it seemed) cross-fairway grade to manage; each of holes 5-7 also has some interesting, but slightly more tame elevation, and plays slightly uphill, bringing you to hole 8, a ~500 foot par 4 through the woods that could probably be eagled with a mid and a lot of guts due to the insane drop back down the hill. Of course, if you miss the fairway, well, have fun, kid. From there, it gets a bit less memorable, though it still has some bright moments: hole 10 brings the creek on the other side of the dam into play, hole 12 is a tough low ceiling on an otherwise relatively park-style hole (had me asking if I was in Florida...), and 13 runs back up a big hill.

Baskets are Mach Vs, and tees are a mixture of concrete and TEXTURED rubber (can't overstate what a difference that makes vs. flat and slick), with am and pro tees on a few holes (for example, short tee players don't have to try and thread the 500 foot downhill through the trees). Tee signs are metal, color, and accurate, including calling out some not-so-obvious elevation features in the woods. They are not the ones pictured here - would've snapped a photo if I realized.

After about hole 13, the rest of the course is largely made up of long, open holes, without any real elegant shaping required or encouraged to match the rest of the course, though the terraces on 18 were cool. I didn't care for the fenced-in area that kept coming back into play on 15-16 - not sure what it was, aside from ugly and a pain. Pinched the lines in some odd, artificial places.

There's one small navigational bobble after hole 10 - both holes 11 and 12 are right there, so it's easy enough to wander over to the wrong one and play it before you realize.

It's a bit out of the way unless you live between Bham and Atlanta, but plenty of AL/GA people should be able to find an excuse to detour here now and again.

The front nine definitely make the course, but the back nine don't break it - they just don't match the quality of the beginning.

Some folks might think the cross-fairway grade on 3 and 4 is too much. I don't, but then again, my bag fell over and one of my drivers rolled 200 feet through the underbrush.

Course has a little bit of everything. Water hazards-3 , wooded holes-8, and the rest are long distance chunk em's. Convenient location - halfway between Atlanta and Birmingham. The hole signage is good because it gives you distance, hole layout and par. The scenery is also some of the best I have experienced. It is also not a very popular course as you may be the only one out there on perfect discin days!!

hard for me to find any real notable cons.

This course is extremely fun in my opinion. This is my home course, so I may be slightly biased, but I am comparing to at least 15 courses.

- Great mix of open and wooded holes
- Challenging Layout

- Steep hills

Overall LPP is a fun course that challenges every player and let's you use every throw in your arsenal. From landing on a small crest of an earthen damn, to crushing a drive over water, this course will bring you back time and time again.
