Course Update 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Apr 12, 2015 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Chalybeate Springs has a great blend of open and wooded holes. It makes excellent use of elevation. It has a very nice course map. A fence has been installed along the cliff to stop disc from rolling off. Walking trail along course that comes into shot play with OB.

Cons:

Tee signs have been stolen over the years and walking trail leading down to hole 4 has washed out.

Other Thoughts:

Course was just mowed and park benches has been installed on holes 8 and 16. Course is looking good mulch has been added around the baskets. New steps was built on hole 7. looking to install new tee signs this year along with getting the walking trail repaired

Pros:

The course offers a wide variety of shots. If you can't throw the long shot, this course is great. Wooded holes are great and challenging.

Cons:

Course could be better taken care of.

Other Thoughts:

This is my home course. Play a minimum of once a week. Played last year in the snow. I enjoy playing this course because of the accuracy required on wooded holes, and the challenge.

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Mar 1, 2009 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Very Technical course. Hands down the funnest small course out there. Most shots are less than 200 ft yet are harder to birdie than a 1000 ft hole. Must know your shots and be confident or this course can really rack up strokes. Can be an Amateurs worst nightmare. Basket placements are killer. Love the downhill lies with the chance of putting off the cliff side. Holes 4, 7, 14, 15 are all the craziest holes you may ever play. Great use of the cliff!

Cons:

It's in the middle of BFE. Not really close to anything!

Other Thoughts:

Ranked as one of the top 10courses I have played.
I would recommend this course to anyone. Great place to learn shots. Quiet setting with little distractions. Beautiful park with several other recreational activities.

Great Break from the Norm.. 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Feb 25, 2008 Played the course:never

Pros:

This is a great course that is very unique and can be somewhat challenging. Let's just say if you over shoot your drives on 3, 8, 14 and 15 you will be regretting it because you will be walking down a cliff and possibly into a creek to retrieve your disc. Your score will be reflected tremendously as well. I was fortunate to have played this course in the winter and by seeing what the course looks like in the summer that would be pretty intimidating. #7 is just AWESOME!! I would rate this course much better than the previous review of 2 ½ stars.

Cons:

No cons here!

Other Thoughts:

Better than would might think and worth the drive there.
