Pros:
Nice park that has some varying pin place ment and lengths. You can really let it fly on a few holes and theres a few holes that are reasonable ace holes for an intermediate player. Pins are in good shape and a there's nice map at the beginning of hole 1. The course has a nice flow for a typical nine in an inner city park.
Cons:
Soggy in the spring and fall. Watch for high water at pin 3 and tee off for 4, pin 7 and tee off for 8. It seems like just when the course gets dried up so the tee boxes are manageable the soccer kids are out in droves. Weekdays after 5PM in the summertime you might as well forget it. Tee signs are lacking.
Other Thoughts:
The locals tell me this was originally a scout project that dated back to the 70's or 80's that originated as a pole hole course and had a sign that said "GOLF CALIFORNIA STYLE".
