Pros:

+Nice maintained park. It was clean and mowed.
+Not a lot of chances to lose a disc here.
+You will likely be the only disc golfer out here
+Tees are marked
+Decent length and variation for a park course.

Cons:

-Navigation is surprisingly difficult for a small town park course. If you wander around enough you will find everything.
-Course plays around man made objects a lot which is not fun in my opinion.
-Possible dangerous throws if anyone else is using the park. Course plays near school, playground, basketball court.
-Signage is limited and not very helpful. Hard to read and adds to navigation issues.
-No elevation.

Other Thoughts:

-I wouldn't bother stopping here unless you live in the area and have no other options. There are no courses here so this is better than nothing.
-This course had a pretty low fun factor for me. Nothing especially interesting. Navigation issues were annoying.

Shrunken basket 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 12, 2013 Played the course:once

Pros:

It is really cool playing around a band shell. The course has some longer holes for a nine hole. The park is clean and well maintained. Hole #5 is awesome.

Cons:

As the title suggests, the sixth hole must have been hit by a car and knocked off its pole, because it is sitting on the ground now. The tee poles are hard to read and #8 does not stand up. You have to play very close to a school and over playground equipment. You also have to throw over a basketball court. Also, hole #2 has a downed tree.

2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 5, 2012 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Not a lot of other courses in this area, so it's a place to play. Some of the holes will be more challenging as the young trees they planted grow up.

Cons:

Some of the holes are hard to find, and you have to go around some buildings in the park to find them. Depending on the position of picnic tables, you may not be able to play one or two of the holes if other people are using the park.

Other Thoughts:

Not a bad little course, but not challenging either. Considering that the closest course is about 45 minutes away, it provides a place for people to play.
