I played this course on a Saturday in October and the campus was an absolute ghost town! I didn't see a soul until I reached hole 8 and then a solitary person crossed over in front of me, possibly searching for water or the rest of his lost party. So strange?

The course plays in two parts; The front 9 plays through the campus buildings then back 9 starts up at Pioneer Park, a small city park just a block from campus.

The metal signs have the complete front 9 map on each of the signs complete with directions, par and distance. There are no tee pads, sidewalks and other concrete spaces are used instead. The baskets are the front 9 are Chainstar models. The back 9 has DGA models with the red #'s on top.

# 1 and # 2 are simple playing across the lawn at the beginning. I thought # 3 lost to construction but located the basket near the building with the squirrel in the cage (Yes, I found this a little strange too).
I couldn't find the tee for # 4 but found a basket. # 5 plays up the hill. Then # 6 basket is right next to some building. 7-8-9 criss-cross over the main square.

Now walk or drive the one block up past the swimming/wave pool to Pioneer Park.

This back 9 has a totally different feel. It plays just like any other city park course. It features some holes up on the bowl of the park which let you throw some big downhill air like # 16's 324' across the lawn. # 18 is a cool little 220' down run through the trees.

Many players will miss the back 9 up in Pioneer Park.

The front 9 on campus would be a problem on days when students are present.

Front 9 holes are especially short (Pitch & Putt variety).

The main bowl area of Pioneer Park reminds me of Ephesus with all of it's crumbling rocks. For about 98.4 % of you DGCR Review Readers who have no idea what an Ephesus is, Ephesus is the 2000 year old Roman ruins in southwestern Turkey close to the Aegean Sea. It seems the local teens in price have delighted in trying to tear down the rock walls in Pioneer Park and littering the park with the stones.
