One of the few courses in the area where you can pull out a distance driver and unleash your inner Simon.

Distance and Openness. Most courses around here are par 3's with trees. This course is relatively open.

Many.
Some tee maps have backwards maps on them. The 'Google Earth" maps are horrible. I'd rather have colored drawings that show obstacles and distance which to me are vastly superior visually than a Sat image with writing on it. Jomezpro swtiched to Drone coverage, which is cool, but not nearly as informative as a scaled, color depiction of the hole. Some holes have been changed, for the worse imo. But that is just an opinion. I see someone else favorably comment on the new layout. Potatoe Patahtoe....
Tee boxes are mixed.
Layout goes from a few really nice holes to horribly designed holes. I think it's 7 where you just throw across a large grass field, which the map shows you the wrong orientation. Then you tee off from a fine gravel walking path to a blind tee 10' from water. Then you "tee" from a sidewalk across a train track onto a hill with two baskets 60' apart and no signage as to where the next hole is located. So, easiest ultimate frisbee-ish hole on earth to blind water hazard from no tee box to a sidewalk chuck over tracks to a double basket hill. Not a fun stretch.
Hole layouts are confusing and there are no "next hole" signs anywhere.
Baskets are old and rusty.
Some days you smell the paper mill in Canton.
Many tee boxes are covered with cut grass, sticks, gravel, etc..

I appreciate the effort, but obviously this course is not funded very well, like most things in Waynesville, and it shows. Bad maps, no signage, rusty buckets, mixed and many dangerous "tee pads."
But even with all of the negatives, I'll still go there occasionally if that's what friends want to do b/c the main thing for me is kachinging the chains with friends.
