Cons:
They could upgrade the signs.
Only has 9 holes! If this could be changed it great.
I can take a while to find errant disks if you go off the fairway.

Other Thoughts:
This is one of the nicest courses in SW MN!
If you don't come play this one you are missing a real treasure. I had two deer walk across as I was standing on hole #9 to tee off.

Pros:
Awesome nine hole course! Great use of the terrain and park. Dual tee pads make it a good place for beginners and veteran players alike. Love the technicalness of this course as well.
Cons:
Lots of bugs, bring bug spray! ! ! ! Last couple holes are very windy and tall grass is unforgiving if you throw off the fairway. Would be alot better if it had nine more holes.
Other Thoughts:
Great, great course! Great use of terrain! A couple of very technical holes, which is awesome. The tall grass on the last three holes sucks! Lost my favorite disc, I was and still am very bummed out. If anyone finds it, there is a reward. Name and phone number is on it.

Played on:Aug 9, 2009
Played the course:2-4 times
Pros:
-Dual Concrete Tee Pads (Amply sized)
-DGA Mach 5 baskets
-Trash cans and benches
-Accurate Signs
-Half of course's holes are short and technical, other half are longer, more open holes
-Very good use of elevation and terrain, even holes that don't have many trees will challenge you with vertical slopes
-Beginner friendly, however can challenge you for that birdie or ace for more advanced players
-has great flow and completes a loop back to the parking area
-Secluded, course is not that busy, if you run into other golfers they are usually friendly
-Holes #4,5,6, & 7 are especially well designed in my opinion
-Restrooms located towards start (middle if you play it as an 18)

Cons:
-Mowed fairways can be NARROW! Holes #5,7,& 8 are especially bad (bring a spotter if possible.)
-Holes #2 & 4 signs are peeled off (only really matters for first timers)
-Entrance to course is a little hidden (it's next to the tiny shelter)
-Wood ticks, BRING BUG SPRAY, spray some on your legs at least
-Can be buggy, not always the case
-Even with trash cans at the tee's, people still manage to litter occasionally (there was broken glass on a tee once, it is now since been swept)
-Hole #9 is rather wide open straight shot (this is just being picky though)

Other Thoughts:
This course is amazing and worth playing if you happen to be in the area. There are a lot of very fun holes through out and it has great scenery.
This out of the way course will surprise you with the quality put into it for such a small town.
The only things I can think of that could be improved to make it a 5 are:
-Fairways mowed WIDER for easier disc finding
-Reparation of signs
-MORE HOLES, this course is fun and leaves you wanting more

Played the course:once
Pros:
Very clean, well-mowed fairways, great hole variety, two different tees for each hole.
Well-stocked information board complete with maps and scorecards.
Hole map at each tee was easy to understand, complete with par, distances, and large obstacles.
Concrete tee pads were a good length and pointed toward the basket.
Mulberries and wild raspberries were abundant... and tasty!

Cons:
Very tall grass outside the fairways, easy to lose discs - some holes had especially thick brush. Bring spotters, seriously!
Par is sometimes generous (7 and 8 are par 5, 450 feet and 415 feet)

Other Thoughts:
Amazing course for being 5 miles away from Walnut Grove (maybe 500 people live there). Nearby camping, swimming, picnic tables near hole 1. The whole course seemed to be well-taken care of.
I (an ameteur) went with my wife and in-laws (both 2nd time beginners) and we had a great time. The Red tees, though 50-100 feet shorter than Blue, made it much more fun for them. Beautiful scenery, lovely elevation changes - have fun with the lovely throw over the pond on #6!
