Lovely Little Course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 4, 2015 Played the course:once

Pros:

-There are various hazards in this course from elevation changes, curved fairways, water hazards, and tree obstacles.
-Nice scenery as you play along the river.
-The course is very well maintained with the grass being mowed and trimmed and the baskets were in good shape.

Cons:

-The first two-three holes are on "Private Property?" I felt uncomfortable playing these when there were signs posted every few feet stating to the effect that you were not allowed to walk in these peoples' backyards. But, that is where the tee-offs and baskets were so trespass I did. Even the practice basket was close to the park border.
-Park is extremely busy so watch out for pedestrians near the softball/soccer fields and on the bike path.
-There are no concrete tee-off pads, just a short strip in the lawn to mark where it is near each sign.

Other Thoughts:

The main thing that concerned me was how the course was set up in peoples' backyards. I quickly played through this area because of it. Otherwise, the course was in excellent shape. The first hole is on the northwest corner of the parking lot and I see they posted a sign now to the streetlight to help direct people in the right direction.

To most experienced disc golfers, the fairways may be too short. But, I thought this was great for beginners and people who want to spend some time on an evening or weekend to take in a round or two.
