Played on:May 14, 2008
Played the course:never
Pros:
the majority of the holes are well kept and feature interesting obstacles and challenges that make for a challenge, but are not so challenging that a novice will be utterly overwhelmed.
Cons:
There are several holes that become flooded with only a little water. the course also seems to retain water, remaining muddy for a fair amount of time after rain. There are several holes that are incredibly difficult, right next to water or een crossing water. It takes more than my two hands to count the times Ive been forced to go swimming in these ponds.
Other Thoughts:
I like this course. If you do not feel like risking your discs, you can easily continue along the path, and go right ahead to the next hole.

Pros:
Fun course to play. Great in the summer with lots of shade from all the trees. Not very challenging overall, though has some water which can prove to be difficult.
Great way to play a quick 18.

Cons:
Water can be an issue, this is the type of water you don't want to swim in. Can be crowded with other the general public and sometimes other players.

Played on:Oct 23, 2007
Played the course:5+ times
Pros:
Fun, Scenic, with nice variety of holes (short, long, obstacles, wind sometimes), mature trees, water comes into play on several holes (most pronounced on holes 13-16).
Cons:
lost discs in the water is always a problem, floods in the spring to make some holes underwater, frequently crowded on sunny weekends both with golfers and pedestrians/picknickers, some signs in need of repair.
Other Thoughts:
Concrete tees on 1-9, 12, 13, 18, rest are dirt. Another older, shorter 'pole course' is located on the south side of the park near the 17th tee (see other review)
UPDATE: July 7 2009: New concrete Tees were installed on all the holes that were previously missing them, which improves the back 9 by a considerable margin (if only the signs could now be replaced/fixed)
