- Now with nice tee signs and indicators to most of the next holes.
- Good baskets
- Distances and layouts are beginner friendly.

- Should be beginner friendly, but lack of cutting back the high grass and thick underbrush in the summer at the edges means that this free course could cost you a couple of discs each time you play
- Clusters of these trees in the middle of holes are fine, but not here because you need a machete to get to your disc
- Still no tee pads, but I think they're overrated. I'd much rather have the 4' brush brush hogged back an additional 15 feet from each fairway.

Overall not a bad course other than the high possibility of losing a disc at every single hole.

This is a nice 9 hole college course. There is plenty of variety in distances. The course is well kept and clean. There are some challenging fairways and some rolling small hills. The course was designed well.

Other Pros:

-nice DISCatchers
-servicable natural tees
-water near play
-set away from other college events

A full 18 holes would be really nice. Because its on campus, parking can be an issue. The rough is really rough with thick thorns.

Other Cons:

-missing tee signs (made navigation tougher)
-map needed for 1st timers

I parked near hole #3 as it was the easiest spot for me to find. The course was fun but since there isn't another course too close it wasn't really worth the trip. If the course was a full 18 then I would take that comment back.

As of 2021, the mowing on hole 1 has gotten really bad increasing the likelihood of lost discs. Hole 4 is similar.

-Free
-Baskets in great shape
-The course design is great. There is a nice variety of holes (up and down hill, dog legs, obstacles, hyzer bombs, etc.). Course designers did great considering the space they were given.
-Big range in difficulty of holes. 1, 3, and 6 are ace runs. 4 and 7 are challenging. 2, 5, 8 and 9 aren't too hard or easy.
-Crazy blackberries and apples for public picking in the summer
-Nice views
-Great use of previously under-utilized land

-The rough gets really rough in the summer with poison ivy, thorns, thick grasses, and lots of trees. It's easy to lose discs or get poison ivy trying to recover them. The course is a bunch less enjoyable and beginner-friendly from May-September.
-Only 9 holes
-A couple long-ish walks between holes. I can play some 9 hole courses in 20 minutes. This one can take twice as long because of all the walking between holes.
-This course is too easy for advanced players
-Most holes favor RHBH/LHFH throwers (1, 2, 4, 7)
-UMass recently closed down the free parking lot at the course. Now if you play between 9 and 5 during the week, there's nowhere to park without risking a ticket unless you have a parking permit.

The course is a valuable resource for disc golfers in town since the next closest course is 20 minutes away. The layout of the holes is beginner-friendly, but the rough is not in the warmer months. All the thorns and poison ivy and thick rough are the biggest drawback of this course. I know many newcomers who have lost discs. I've lost at least 4 (although I have played 200+ rounds).
