Pros:
Sunriver SHARC DGC is located in Sunriver, Oregon. This resort along with the disc golf course offers ball golf, swimming and much more. This 9 hole disc golf course is very short and you wont need much more than a mid range. Course is complete with Mach 5 baskets and concrete or turf tee pads(I cant really remember).
Hole #2 is the longest hole here that stretches almost 250 feet. This is my favorite hole and for a lot of good players this would be theirs too.
Some holes I found myself jump putting from the tee pad. Course is very simple as it plays around a dirt mound with a tubing slide. Course map is not very much needed but take one if you think you will.
This course plays around a huge dirt mound and ends on the other side of the mound. They had all the right amenities on this course they could have just expanded because it cracked me up when I saw the first 80 foot hole.
If you don't have any discs with you or have never played, you can rent discs. I would assume this course is not playable at some times during the winter as there is a huge tubing/waterslide running right through the middle.
If you are looking for more of a challenge then head up the road to Sisters Oregon where you will find some other fun disc golf courses.

Cons:
Although this course is for beginners it was still fun to try and ace some of the holes since they were so short. I played this course when I was staying at the resort and if you were not I would recommend Hyper Pines or Pine Nursery.
This course looked fairly new when I played it but does not offer much of a challenge as they could have expanded into other parts of the resort to make a full length course.

Other Thoughts:
If you are in the area and just want to stop to take a break this course would be ok if you wanted to practice some putter up shots. Hyzer Pines in Sisters, Oregon is down the road a little bit and has some more fun and technical holes.
This course is probably just the right course for beginners as it provides some short and easy holes. Every disc golf course in Eastern Oregon looks very much alike with pine trees and dust. If you are in the resort I would check it out as it offers some fun putter shots.

Pros:
Worth playing if you're already in Sunriver.
Cons:
I wouldn't go out of my way to try the course, but if you're already at the resort, give it a try.
Other Thoughts:
The first two holes are much better than the rest. The others are very short drives-almost long putts.

Pros:
-This course is located at the Sunriver Recreation Center. It is the perfect length for kids or beginners staying at the Sunriver Resort, with no holes over 250 feet and most in the 80-120 foot range. It plays around the Winter Tubing Hill area, which adds the elevation factor.
-If you're new to the game, you may rent discs for $5 in the Recreation Center.
-Hole #2 is easily my favorite. It's 255', straight down one of the tubing runs to an elevated basket. It requires a precise midrange shot. The only other hole that presents somewhat of a challenge is #7, a blind putter shot over a corner of the hill.
-Nice, new Mach 5 baskets.

Cons:
-This course is simply too short to provide much in the way of challenge. There are 7 gimme birdies and 2 slightly tricky shots. But, of course, this place is designed for beginners, not experienced disc golfers. Still, It's a great upshot practice area if you make up some safari holes.
-A touch extra power on the downhill, hole #2 will put you right in the picnic shelter.
-The tee pads were two rubber mats with a 1 foot gap in between. This makes for some awkward run ups. Then again, you shouldn't need to take a run up on more than a couple holes.

Other Thoughts:
-If you're staying in Sunriver, I'd definitely be taking advantage of this course. It's just a 10-15 minute bike ride from the main resort complex. Any intermediate or advanced player should only need a putter and a midrange to play the regular course, but there are some fun safari hole opportunities. However, if you're looking for more of a challenge I'd recommend Hyzer Pines in Sisters or Pine Nursery in Bend.
-Hole 6 would have to be the easiest hole I've ever played. 75 feet, no obstacles, and a steep hill/backstop behind the basket. I'd bet that Ricky would ace this hole within five tries.
-Several small Ponderosa pines have been planted on holes 4-7. They offer little challenge now, as they do not exceed 10 or 15 feet in height.
-I have never played a course quite this short and am not sure exactly how to score it. It's a great course for what it is, but too short to challenge anyone other than a beginner. The entire course is the length of Hole 2E at Milo.
