This is a well-designed, well-executed course on a varied, mostly wooded piece of land. I enjoyed playing here very much. The first few holes occupy flat ground by the creek, but holes 8 through 15 work their way up, across, and back down a steep wooded ridge with lots of elevation in play. This part of the course was my favorite. Holes 16 – 18 return to the creek side of the road, but have more elevation in play compared with the start of the course.

With three tee pads per hole, the course length ranges from 5,759' (gold), 4,638' (silver), and 3,063' (bronze). Consequently, players of widely ranging skills can find a suitable option to play. This is more of a finesse course than a bomber course, but elevation makes quite a few holes play longer than the listed distances. There are also three par 4 holes on each layout.

Concrete tees for all silver and gold pads, but the bronze pads are all natural as of March 2024. Kiosk with course map and lost disc box by the parking lot. Practice basket nearby, and sawn log benches at every tee.

Lots of tricky greens, with hazards including steep slopes and OB creeks and streams near the baskets.

Excellent post-mounted signs at every tee. Signs include distance, elevation change, par, hole notes, direction to the next tee, and a highly descriptive hole map showing each tee and any OB areas.

Excellent navigation, with marked basket spokes and ample white "next tee" arrows throughout the course. I can't remember checking my navigation app during the round. Short walks between most holes, but the walk between 15 and 16 is fairly long (but well marked – continue walking past #18's teepad).

Stairs and bridges have been installed on the steepest slopes and ravine crossings, and wood chips line the dirt fairways and walking paths. Kudos are deserved for what must have been a massive effort.

A few holes throw across or along pathways and roads. While this is not ideal from a safety perspective, visibility is good and I did not note any conflicts on a warm Sunday afternoon in March.

Holes 1-7 and 18 can get muddy or even flooded after heavy rain or snow melt. I played the day after a heavy rain, and the course was fully playable despite a fair amount of mud and puddles on the creek holes.

Fairway widths are fair, but if you get off the fairway on the back nine briars can be quite aggressive. This is not unusual for a new course, and I saw evidence that the club has been trimming brush so I expect this to improve over time.

There are a couple of reachable holes where the basket is blind from the tee. The club has installed bells on these holes with a sign that says, "Please ring the bell after finishing the hole if there is a group behind you."

Holes 6 and 18 play as artificial island greens, with a drop zone if you fail to land in bounds. Hole 7 had a raised basket on a tricky peninsula green that was surrounded by water when I played. Not sure whether the water is always so high, but there were boardwalks to cross so I expect such conditions are not unusual.

Risk of disc loss was fairly low in winter, but might be higher during the growing season. The course does not return to the parking lot until hole 17, so pack anything you might need during your round.

Personal pet peeve: There are a couple of holes on the ridge where you walk downhill to throw uphill. It bugs me to see elevation wasted rather than used for good purpose.
