Other Thoughts:
As of this review, the course is brand new. I will try to write another review as work is done.
As is, this course is awful. Most of the holes are very short (~300' and under). This should make for a good beginner course, except for the large number of trees. While all but perhaps two holes have legitimate fairways, hitting about half of the fairways involves throwing a line with perhaps five feet of room for error. So many holes of this type will frustrate beginners and experts alike. I have no problem with challenging holes, if it feels like the challenge is one that can be overcome. That makes for better players. The tree-heavy holes on this course don't involve conquerable challenges, they involve luck.
Along that line, the tee boxes are so rough and powdery that throwing from anything other than a standstill without tripping involves luck. The same goes for the walking paths.
Do you throw a RHFH Anhyzer Flex shot? You might do okay. Don't have that shot? You have no chance of driving well on most of the holes.
I want to like this course. As it is, $3 to play half a dozen half-decent holes just doesn't do it. This course needs serious work (some tree removal to create real playable lines, hard-surfaced tees). It has some real potential, but as is just isn't worth playing for me.
