A bit confused. 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 10, 2015 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Quick solo action, pretty campus, grass/weeds were cut, another place in Asheville to play.

Cons:

Just 6 holes, random non disc golfers using pads for yoga? (im assuming it was yoga), students laying in grass by baskets.

Other Thoughts:

I don't get why the place gets such a bad rap, its not terrible, and I understand Richmond Hill is right down the road, but some days people may not want to wait for the large groups or trek the mighty hills.

Short but sweet 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Feb 26, 2012 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

- It's a decent little course...probably just a warmup for most people.
- Each hole has it's own challenges.
- The rubber tee pads are OK as long as they are dry.

Cons:

- No tee signs.
- No scorecards.
- No map (but a map really isn't necessary, so not too bad of a con).
- Rubber missing from #2 tee pad.

Updated to add: There is an extreme HEAVY carpet of poison ivy starting in April/May. On nearly every hole if you don't hit the fairway you will be in poison ivy! #6 is the worst.

Other Thoughts:

I recommend playing this course starting at #5 (you can park pretty much right at the tee which is a parking space itself.)

There is definite room for improvement. I know that UNCA has plans to expand this course in the future. I don't know when that will happen with all of the budget cuts they've had to do recently. For me, if they just expanded to 9 holes, added tee signs and score cards that would be enough to bump it up to a 3. If it were a full 18 with a few more wooded holes to rival Richmond Hill then it would be an easy 3.5 for me.
