Pros:
- a few rolling hills are about the only notable terrain
- older but serviceable Innova DISCatchers
- some decent hole length variety
Cons:
- wide open and completely flat
- doesn't feel like the safest area
- no obstacles, ridiculously easy with no challenge/shot shaping
- natural tees
- some tee signs missing
- navigation is very unclear
- decent wooded area right next to course is not incorporated
- poor design which uses tennis court as an obstacle
- course has not been maintained over time
- hole 1 throws over parking lot drive; safety hazard
Other Thoughts:
It was hard to find many pros for this course. Jukeshoe had it right - not hidden enough! First, you have to find the start of the course in a decent size apartment complex. This honestly did not feel like the safest area but I found visitor parking near the course and started to play. Most of the tee signs are missing and navigation was very unclear. For the most part I followed the online map and just played basket to basket. This course clearly doesn't get much traffic so exact positions of the natural tees wasn't always obvious.
I get the impression this course may have been better maintained when it was new and maybe warranted a 1-1.5. In the current state, it's pretty bad. The tennis court was used as an obstacle, which I guess is ok now since this has become a fenced gravel lot. When the court was actually in existence and being used, this was not a good design, just asking for discs to end up on the court. This is about it for obstacles, with the rest of the course almost entirely open, devoid of trees, and flat. A couple of the later holes incorporate some light rolling hills which I guess is something.
I admittedly don't know if the wooded area right next to the course is the apartment complex's property, but it appears to be unused and if so it's a travesty they didn't design some holes into that area. I don't think anyone is really taking ownership of this course but it could have been halfway decent if it used some of this wooded area.
Hole 1 throws over one of the "roads" between the parking lots and the last couple of holes play pretty close to the parking lot. The layout here is not ideal. Honestly, as much as I bag just about everything, I was almost annoyed I came here. It's not much of a way to end the day. Not sure who named this apartment complex but there is certainly no creek I could see here. Unless you want to come here to bag every course, I would not walk, but run, in whatever direction gets you away from this awful course.
