Pros:
This high school course is the only thing going for miles around, and was very well designed and installed about five years ago. Brick paved teepads, signs showing hole distance, a bench on a couple of holes, and quality discatcher baskets show that they took some care in the infrastructure.
Hole one is a downhill, open shot just over 360 feet, suggesting the course might be just right for recreational to intermediate players. Hole two hyzers (rhbh) 320'+ around the tree line below the soccer field, then the third hole is just under 200', in the woods, and across a small ravine and bridge. Hole four comes out a gap, and then annies just under 200' tightly to the right and well downhill (with rollaways possible for tricky downhill putts!). Hole five is a long (365') valley-crosser which finishes at least 20-30' higher than the tee, with dangerous woods rough on the right. After crossing the practice field, hole 6 constitutes a 257 foot ace run with the hazard being fading down the hill to the left. The seventh is similar, but very short, at 149'. Hole 8 (413') is the memorable one, where your risk/reward decision is whether to bomb over the pond 50' below you, but requiring 350' to cross, or to play to the right, and risk those nasty trees. Hole nine comes back to the corner of the parking lot 321' along the hillside.
In all, the course offers a LOT of elevation change, tight woods, long bombs, shots that go left and right, and distances ranging from 149-413'. An admirable accomplishment for a school course with only nine holes. Well done!
Cons:
Now the BAD news. I first played here late in the summer of 2012, and wanted to get back out to see if it was better maintained during the school year. The unfortunate answer is, I'm not sure anyone comes out here at all except the (appreciated) maintenance guy who mows one strip down the center of each fairway. There is no maintenance on the woods holes, and the rough will eat discs. Weeds are growing through all the baskets now, and obscuring the brick tees (which are increasingly hard to spot). If it hadn't been for the 10' path down the fairways being reasonably cut, this visit would've been excruciating.
There is no discernible path into the woods from hole 2 to 3. The tree down just in front of the #3 tee has been laying there for at least 13 months. The gap you need to hit to get out on hole 4 is now overgrown to the point you pretty much can't.
Other Thoughts:
I want to give this course a nice rating because of the excellent design and original installation, and for the fact that it is the only course for miles and miles around there. It's kind of a shame that someone local hasn't gotten an after school club going to keep it played and maintained.
