Vastly Improved 2+ years

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Nov 3, 2017 Played the course:once

Pros:

New DISCatcher baskets; mostly isolated from other park activities (very large park). Great new tee signs - navigation is now very easy. Cement tees (although small). Wooded holes (#3 - #9) are a lot of fun - plenty of trees but clear lines to every basket. Good variety of uphill, downhill, and flat. Some left turners and some right turners. Port-a-potty in parking lot. Practice basket.

Cons:

Small tees - about 6 feet long by 3 feet wide (heard from a local that they were restricted to a small size). First two holes are wide open - not even a tree in sight. Big hill behind tee #3 is not used as part of the course. #9 basket is far from the first tee (and parking lot).

Other Thoughts:

This course has vastly improved from my previous visit. The new tee signs make it very easy to navigate. The only throw over the walking path is from a tee about 30 feet off the path so no danger of hitting walkers. Loved holes 3 through 7 through the woods. First two holes are straight and wide open - no obstacles except distance. Hole 3 plays downhill through the woods; hole 4 slightly uphill; hole 5 downhill again; and hole 6 uphill. Plenty of trees to negotiate but wide enough fairways to shape your lines. Holes 7-9 are flat and still in the woods but with fewer trees and straightforward lines. Yes there is poison ivy off the fairway so stay down the middle.
