-Just down the street from Six Flags and The Big E
-Well manicured fairways
-Nice park with lots of activities for kids, clean restrooms, water fountain
Cons:
-Flat, Short, and Wide Open... Pitch and Putt to experienced playersm
-Other Park activity can create some safety concerns: Playground and Swings not too far off the 4th fairway. Soccer, bocce, and shuffleboard players might occasionally be close to some holes and make them unplayable.
-Hole 5, 6, & 7 play along a fence line with neighbor's backyards reachable on errant throws, though the tee locations try to angle the flight path away from the fence.
-Hole 8 is peculiar: a dogleg over somebody's backyard.
First tee not obvious from parking lot (it's across the wetlands) and ninth basket leaves a bit of a walk back to the parking lot, even further back to the 1st tee if you want to play another round.

Other Thoughts:
Can be a fun introduction to disc golf for beginners or putting practice on the way home from a day at Six Flags for experienced players. Some safety concerns that I hope can be addressed with landscaping, and I can foresee some angry abutting neighbors if players don't respect their property. Not sure how to fix that 8th hole though. Hope the folks that live there are fans of disc golf.
