Pros:
+ Concrete tees/decent baskets
+ Plays a loop, navigation is relatively intuitive despite the lack of a map/signs
+ Warm-up area w/ 3 baskets
+ Benches near 1,3,7,8 & 12; trash near 3 & 17; restrooms present near parking lot
+ Decent variety in distances and shots needed; most have some trees/obstacles in the way, but there are at least a couple that let you air it out
+ Despite the lack of elevation the course is scenic as hell, playing near/along the Gunnison River. If you play in summer you might forget you're in Colorado in some places
Cons:
- No maps/signs (there are PVC pipes w/ numbers on them but what signs they had in the past have been blown away
- Some might find a few of the holes to be repetitive i.e., shoot-through-some-trees > lay-up > putt
Other Thoughts:
I was pleasantly surprised with Confluence Park. Once I found the first tee the course played rather intuitively and I didn't have any major issues w/ navigation. For first timers, head up Kellogg all the way to the parking lot near the boat ramp and you'll see to the left of the ramp one of three practice baskets. Head just past those and you'll see the PVC pipe marking Tee 1. After 7, proceed past the basket and you'll find Tee 8 just out of view behind some bushes. 17 is missing the PVC pipe but there is a green stake sticking a few feet out of the ground to mark it. As said above, at least in summer, I found the place to be scenic has hell, with a couple holes making me forget I was in Colorado. #6 in particular reminded me of courses I've played in Florida. I'm not sure how beginner-friendly it should be considered - most of the course isn't a problem but newbies might have difficulty with the number of trees that can be between tee & basket, as well as holes 17 & 18, which play right along the river, which begs to eat an errant RHBH, something I found out first-hand.
All things considered this is a must-play if you're in the Delta area, especially if paired with a warm-up round at Tamarac Park's 9 holer. I'd give it a 3.25 but considering the options in the area (or lack thereof) I'm erring on the side of 3.5. Some upgraded signage would make it a solid 3.5 for me, if not a 3.75. Check it out!
