- Great variety of holes. Each has a unique look due to the trees and elevation changes.
- The amount of trees provides a good challenge without being frustrating.
- Small "Next Tee" signs make it fairly easy to navigate, but might not last.
- Signs number the holes at the tee.
- Baskets are visible from the tee on all holes except hole 6, which requires a quick step to the left of some trees.
- Hole 1 starts right by the parking lot and hole 9 ends on the other side of the parking lot.
- The Willamette River provides a great backdrop for pictures on hole 4.
- Lots of parking in the winter. I don't know how busy the park gets during the summer when the boat landing is in regular use.
- Very few players at the moment, so it's a way to avoid the crowded weekend afternoons at Adair Park and Willamette Park.
- Albany has a course to play in the winter, since Bryant is usually under water.

- Rough can be really rough. The thick ivy and other foliage can be tough to dig through. Lost a brand-new disc on my first throw with it.
- Walkout to hole 7 is confusing. Eight's tee is actually closer to 6's basket.
- Walkout to 8 is so long you could fit in another hole.
- Carpet tees provide decent grip, but are uneven and a little small.
- Poison oak, and lots of it.
- Bad drives on holes 1, 2, 4, and possibly 3 (past the basket) could end up in the Willamette River. Some like the challenge, but I don't like losing discs.

Fairway drivers and mid-ranges are a must on this course. The rough can be really rough, so it's nice to have a disc that will land softly and not dig in. I often throw my Stalkers off the tee. For your first round you might consider throwing discs you're willing to lose.

This is a new course, so it is a work in progress. I expect the roughness of the course to get ironed out a bit as more players move through it. Concrete tees are a possibility is the future.
