Pros:

Nice Baskets and the park is very clean but that about all of the positive for this little 9 hole.

Cons:

I have never played a course with no course map, tee pads, or tee signs. On several holes there are poorly visible painted lines with a number for the corresponding hole but many of these were difficult to find and some holes appeared to not have them at all.

Its very frustrating to play a course in a nice little park that could be a fun little track but the course designer/local club do half of the job required and just leave it that way. How about putting in some sort of tee markers that tell you where toy are throwing and how far that might be?

Several of the holes play along pathways used by walkers, bikers, etc. This is a horrible design feature and eventually someone is going to get hurt by being hit by a disc. Very poor design!

Other Thoughts:

I played this course because I was near town for work and saw a green Prodigy basket when driving by. I was not expecting much and certainly not expecting to be blown away but WOW was I disappointed in what this course offered. Really sad to see courses put in the ground. The local town deserves better than this.

Nice little park course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 19, 2017 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Nice variety of holes.

Some uphill and downhill shots. Tight technical shots and some open shots.

Great use of the park space given.

Cons:

Natural tees, no signs, not a great layout.

Other Thoughts:

So the space given is well use, but there are some spots where things over run each other. I think the layout is good given the constraints the designer had, but the flow isn't great.

That being said I really enjoyed it, and there are a few nice memorable holes which is really cool on a 9 hole park course in a small town.

If you are in the are it's well worth the stop, and frankly plays as a great warm up or cool down from Giants Ridge.
