Pros:
- decent signs and well marked - pretty easy to follow for first time play
- front 9 is mostly open but has some nice mature trees mixed in to guard the baskets
Cons:
- too many places to lose a disc (water and heavy brush)
- back 9 is a little ridiculous unless you're an advanced player
- hole 12 over a stagnant pond is too long for a lot of people to throw over
- nitpicking, but concrete pads are a little too short
- mosquitoes were thick, bring bug spray
Other Thoughts:
I enjoy a tight and challenging course (like Mississippi River Park which is just a few miles west and a far better option) but I found this course annoying rather then fun. There are just way too many unforgiving water hazards and mosquito infested narrow cut paths through heavy brush on the back 9 to make for an enjoyable round. I'd rather find discs then lose them and although I consider myself an intermediate player I laid up over and over and over just to get through it. While I didn't see any poison ivy, there's a lot of burning nettle mixed into areas where your disc is likely to end up if you're not extremely accurate (and even mid-distance lay-ups have at least some potential to find trouble). I see no reason why i'd come back here as there are just too many better options within 20 minutes that are challenging but far more enjoyable.
