Anchorage School District's Best Course 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 19, 2015 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

- Free
- Decent baskets
- Change in elevation shots
- Wide open beginner friendly hole layouts
- Beautiful scenery

Cons:

- On a school campus
- No course map
- No teepads
- No directional signs
- Some teepads are too close to the prior hole's basket.
- # 6 is a low point in the land and is always muddy and water logged.

Other Thoughts:

This course is one of a few public-school layouts within Anchorage. I like the course, but there's a lot of crap to put up with to play the course. Every time I've been to the course it's been muddy and without teepads it gets pretty sloppy at the tee off points. A few of the teepads themselves are dangerously close to baskets. There's no signs or maps for it either. The course itself is usually never crowed, but after school sports activities frequently use this general area well after school is out. This, combined with it being off limits during school day hours, limits how "publicly" accessible the course really is. Additionally, hole 1,2, & 6 are horrible and need to be redesigned. This course isn't actually that bad for a the half-assed effort that went into it.
