Pros:

The course plays through a well groomed multi use park. The fairways are grassy and some have nice mature trees as obstacles. There is a little variety in length here, enough to at least keep every hole from feeling exactly the same. There are good concrete tee pads, and the baskets are in great shape and catch well. The flow of the course is easy to follow despite the lack of numbering on tees and baskets.

Cons:

There's just not a whole lot going on here that makes it a challenging or interesting course. None of the holes are very long, and none have enough obstacles to keep them from being ace runs for more experienced players. The park has a lot of other things going on, and the course plays very close to a walking path, playground etc., likely causing some safety issues on a nice day. There is no signage at all to tell distance or to know you're actually shooting the right hole.

Other Thoughts:

This is a nice course to try out the game, with some minor obstacles, reasonable distances, and a nice quick loop that won't take all day for a beginner. More experienced players just won't find any challenge here, and there's not enough variety or interesting holes to make up for the lack of difficulty. If you want to check one off your list, it's a quick stop, otherwise don't bother.
