Interesting landscape, lots of cool rock and tree features. Well maintained.

Terrible signage. No map at the beginning of the course to take a picture of or anything either. Finish a hole and its usually a complete guess where the next one starts. Sometimes you have to backtrack most of the hole you just played to find the next tee. Sometimes the next tee is not even the closest tee to the hole you just finished. This would be acceptable if there were the tiniest bit of useful signage. Not only is there no flow, its downright dangerous. Multiple tees are located directly in the flight path of other holes, and there is so much elevation change that they're all pretty much blind. I was almost hit, standing in the tee box, by a throw that wasn't even that bad of a throw because we fully could not see each other in the slightest. A large portion of the fairways are closely bordered on one side with wire fence, so a drive just off the fairway means you're tangling with a blackberry covered fence. This course must just gobble up discs. Its also $10 to park in the parking lot. There is room for a dozen or more cars along the small road leading up to the park but they've put no parking signs at every pull-off area. Its either $10 or on a residential street about a half a mile away.

This course seems like it was made by people who don't play disc golf but thought it would be a neat place to have a course. It is a neat place, but should not be a disc golf course. There isn't enough space, and the space that they do have is so rough that its almost unplayable. There were almost no holes where I felt I could really give it a good throw without risking hitting someone I don't see or losing my disc. Its fine if a few holes of a course are on a slope or rock feature, but not an entire course. I've played a lot of courses in OR/WA and this is by far the worst I've played, short of amateur setups on peoples property or whatever. Given that this is a city park with gov. funding, I sure would have thought they could have done better. There are big open areas in the park that probably could have been utilized to even out the course a little, so its not 18 technical holes in a row, and spread it out so holes aren't on top of each other or right next to some fun-killing hazard. I recently moved to town, looking for a couple new courses. Maybe if you carry around 100 junk discs that you don't mind losing or you are okay throwing layup after layup then this course might be playable, but I don't, so this one is out for good. Santa Rosa is DESPERATE for a halfway decent course.
