Nice Starter Course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Feb 26, 2011 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Very easy to find and not crowded, good course for new players and it is easy to follow the course from hole to hole. Great for beginners.

Cons:

Wind is a major factor, dirt tee boxes that are really rutted out.

Other Thoughts:

The par levels that are stated on the tee boxes seem a bit high when compared to other courses with similar holes. If you knock one stroke off and make all the par 4's be a par 3 and the par 5's be a par 4, and the 8th hole be a par 2 the course par levels would better compare to similar courses.

2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 17, 2009 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

great looking, well maintained, and easy to navigate. A great course for beginners and casual players and pretty decent course for advanced players as well. Lots of different shots, plenty of obstacles and not too crowded.

Cons:

There's a pond on the course that never comes into play and a picnic/playground area that can bring up the occasional pedestrian obstacle.

Other Thoughts:

Make sure to play with a local, so they can show you the alternate back 9 and the "short 10" that they've come up with, very fun, bringing it to 28 distinct holes.

also, it would be great if someone really familiar with the course could update the par and tee lengths here on the site.

Good starter course. 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 29, 2009 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Easy 9 hole course with green grass and some trees. Great course for beginners.

Cons:

Not very challenging. Hole 8 is under 100 ft. There are only 9 baskets, and the natural tee pads are worn and provide little traction

Other Thoughts:

Playing for tags on Sunday adds a level of excitement and competition.
