Reviewed: Played on:Sep 15, 2014 Played the course:once

Pros:

This is a compact 18-hole course on a slightly hilly wooded tract of land with a creek cutting through the middle.

Most holes are short, with many in the 200' - 250' range. Good use of trees to either guard the basket or force a specific line on the drive. Not a course that requires a big arm, but rather rewards accuracy.

Three holes cross the creek (4, 17,18) which adds interest. The distances to clear the creek are short, which minimizes the danger of losing a disc.

Four holes (6, 7, 9, 10) play up a powerline right-of-way which results in the longer, more open holes on the course. But they are still tight enough to present a good challenge.

The tee signs that are there (about half) gave a nice map of the hole, par, and distance. Several signs also have a "Donated By" plaque with the name of a local business. Always great to see courses supported by locals.

Large parking lot with nearby restroom, picnic tables, trash cans.

Course navigation was pretty simple until about hole 13 where things get tight and mixed together.

Cons:

The course is very congested around Holes 13 - 16. There are places where you can see 4 baskets and 4 tee signs from one spot, with a couple of others nearby. This makes it confusing to determine which basket to play to and would be a concern with multiple groups on the course.

About half of the tee signs were missing. It's a shame because they were nice signs.

Tee pads are dirt, and some are pretty uneven.

The morning we played a couple of moms with their kids were walking on the course, in the congested area of holes 13 - 17. It seems like no matter where they moved, they were in the way.
