Other Thoughts:
Shadduck park is a nice beginner course, especially for kids! Each tee location has an A, B and C tee pad (wooden board) to choose from. One could play 3 times through and have 9 different shots, however I certainly wouldn't call it a nice hole course like one of the other parks across town. My kids enjoyed the quick round and afterwards they played in the toys for a while- it was a nice stop on our road trip and I recommend it for the new players or kids 3 and up.
Regarding the baskets- it's true, they are not the most beautiful things out there. However, they do match the ones in the other small coeur d'alene courses, but these are actually better! They are in good shape, have hole number on top, and discs don't fall through the bottom of the cage like at the other parks.
