Quickest course in town (and the only) 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 10, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

If you find yourself needing to pass through town and don't have a lot of time to play disc golf, don't worry. 20 minutes will get you through this little course, and you'll leave with a smile. A couple of the ending holes are quite good. It is not hard to navigate. Great for beginners. The park is maintained. Good baskets.

Cons:

The tee pads are unusable; step to the side and play from the dirt instead. This course could get dangerous; if others are using the park, they are likely in the line of fire in multiple locations. One hole in particular has a park shelter in its path, unless you play around it. I found myself throwing through the shelter while nobody was present. Distance is listed in yards, which can be confusing unless you keep that in mind.

Other Thoughts:

I had a lot of fun playing this course. It was mostly empty when I played it, which meant I didn't have to worry about pedestrians. I chuckled in parts when I felt like I was going around miniature golf-like obstacles that were the result of the inability to build a course that avoided these obstacles. Play it 2 or 3 times if you want to stay longer. Aurora should get a pat on the back for making this course a reality; even a 2-star course is something that can be appreciated.

The shortest tee pads 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:May 2, 2014 Played the course:once

Pros:

This is a well kept park that is pretty beginner friendly. Threat of losing a disc here is pretty minimal.
Rounds will play quickly and there was a good mix of short and moderate length holes as well.
Did have a tiny bit of elevation change.
There are other amenities here like the skate park and pavilions.
Hole 7 was my favorite hole here with a low ceiling and several trees to navigate, plus it threw downhill slightly.

Cons:

Ridiculously tiny tee pads. It appears most people just use the dirt instead of these tee pads.
Hole 5 throws over a softball fence, with the basket right behind the fence.
Some tees and baskets are close together.
This course is mostly wide open and many of the holes lack variety.
More advanced players will most likely be bored here.

Other Thoughts:

This course won't wow you but it serves its purpose and is a decent play if you're passing through. Best played when there aren't a lot of activities in the park. It just feels like this course was crammed in some spots. This is a good course to take someone who wants to learn the game. There is just enough distance and lines to challenge yet not frustrate. Please be careful if you play this course when the park is busy.
