Pros:

Two Rivers is a wide-open park style course in Nashville. If you're searching for the destination course or courses in town, this is not the one. But it's an adequate beginner course (or a place to practice drives) and worth the time to bag it.

+ Wide-open terrain to rip and watch the full flight of the disc.

+ There's a good bit of elevation on this course: downhills, uphills, and valley shots. Nice variety, as far as elevation goes.

+ Accessible to other Nashville-area courses that you're probably want to play after warming up here!

Cons:

This isn't a track you're going to travel to, per se, but maybe a tune-up for Naval Hill, Cedar Hill, or another, higher-rated course.

- First off, for an open course, I expect navigation to be self-explanatory or easy to follow: that's not the case here -- and it's frustrating. I could be wrong, but I couldn't find the basket on a few back nine holes and ended up throwing to the same basket, marked #10, on three holes. I don't know if it's worse to be unsure about the basket you're throwing to or to have 2, 3, or 4 different holes throwing on the same basket. Either way, Two Rivers gets dinged for this, in my book.

- The baskets are old and not in great shape.

- Carpet tee pads (as in real carpet, not turf). Slippery.

- While there's variety in elevation, you're essentially just throwing back and forth across two fields. Very mundane and forgettable. Not very high on the Fun or Challenge Meters.

Other Thoughts:

There are lots of other amenities here, including a water park, walking trails, playgrounds, and picnic areas. This looks like a really nice place to bring the family. Bring your discs too--and practice those drives. But don't bring lofty expectations about playing a great course.

Pros:

Great place to air it out & get some exercise! Situated near a wave pool/water park, this little gem will have the out of shape huffing & puffing! The scenery is quite nice, rolling hills. The front half of the course plays very quickly with shorter holes & long ones that are easy to park. The baskets are in decent shape. The only obstacles on the course will be your bad driving habits if any. I'd recommend this course to anyone practicing a new run up or trying out a new set of drivers. Blizzards really love this course too! Grip it & rip it!

Cons:

BORING! While it's nice to go big sometimes, it's not DG at its finest. The pads are inconsistent, some carpet, mostly concrete. The signage is dilapidated & confusing. It's easy to get lost because many of the signs have been vandalized, and all of them are on their last limb bc they've been turned backwards and reused. Tee pads that don't go to holes are everywhere. Some signs are marked for B basket for example, but the B basket isn't indicated on the map.

Other Thoughts:

Take your time navigating, and look for the basket before your throw. I wouldn't bring anyone with joint or health problems bc the course goes up & down many times on these big open hills. If your disc goes over the fence, into the Waterpark area...that's trespassing brotha. The signs clearly say not to jump the fence for disc retrieval. A phone # would be nice.

Reviewed: Played on:Apr 18, 2011 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Good course for beginners learning to throw that won't get frustrated by hitting trees. Wide open space.

Cons:

I will give the park the "benefit of the doubt" since the course flooded in May of 09. But this park was a disappointment taking some friends to play. Markers not accurate. Baskets not marked with correct #'s. Back 9 is all messed up.

Other Thoughts:

I will not be back until this course gets revamped.

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 18, 2009 Played the course:once

Pros:

Open space for long drives, cut grass, not crowded, bathrooms, free to play.

Cons:

Incorrect signs, tee pad numbers don't match basket numbers, garbage on course (no cans), overlapping holes, no benches.

Other Thoughts:

The hills didn't bother me because I knew that going in, but how hard is it to have the tee pad number match the basket number? After the third hole the next tee is #6 where you throw to basket #4. So it's a brain teaser for the rest of the course. The distance signs show multiple pin positions that don't seem to exist so you have to guess which basket you are aiming at. This challenge is increased by the close proximity of some of the holes. If there are people playing in front of and behind you please bring a helmet!

I liked being able to work on my drive distance and playing 18 was definitly a workout with the hills.

I can not recommend this course until the locals take an afternoon to correct the hole numbers, fix the distance signs to only display the used pin position, and convince the park to install benches and garbage cans.
