Reviewed: Played on:Feb 16, 2008 Played the course:never

Pros:

Well signed and maintained. The front nine is moderatly wooded, requiring a variety of shots, with enough room for slight mistakes. The back nine is generally more open, although you still have to think a little bit on some holes. A very fun course to play.

Cons:

Pro-caliber players may consider the course too easy.

The course parking lot comes into play on a couple of holes. I wouldn't be surprised if parked cars are occasionally dinged by flying discs. It might not be a bad idea to park across the street in the ballfield parking lot.

Other Thoughts:

Hole #13 is 1,001 feet long, according to the tee sign. Whether that's a "Pro" or a "Con" is up to you. Personally, I like it, because it's fun to "let 'er rip" for one hole. It's also a quite memorable, and serves as the course's "signature" hole (whether that was their intent or not). Some people don't really care for it, though. Many holes on the back (including the infamous 13th) have no shade, so on a hot day, you'll probably be pretty winded by the time you get to the end.

I have to wonder if the hole is exactly 1,001 feet long, though...
