Reviewed: Updated: Played on:May 10, 2014 Played the course:once

Pros:

- Nice baskets, installed well.
- Grass tees, signified by large white pavers in the ground.
- Park is easy to find, in a nice small community.
- Bathrooms, tennis, basketball, playgrounds, and running/walking track on site.
- Some obstacles in the way here and there, but essentially an open course.

Cons:

- Tennis, basketball, playgrounds, and running/walking track on site. (Yes, I listed it as a 'Pro' also). Just all packed in to a very small space. The park could really probably safely accommodate 6 holes instead of 9, but it works ok.
- The running/walking track is probably the most concerning, but it's visible in all places.
- Private property butts up to the park on two sides, and corn fields on the other two. Baskets are close enough to the fields that once the corn is tall, discs may easily end up in them.

Other Thoughts:

- I'm very pleased to see another course in the area. Just a few years ago the Decatur area had no courses, and now there's two! Small courses like this are where youngsters learn that the sport exists, and learn to play. Wonderful to see that Maroa has made this a priority to add to their nice city park.
