- very good variety of holes; 17 of 21 are shorter wooded holes, yet only two of them (5 and 6 are basically the same) feel similar.
- good use of elevation, especially for a wooded course.
- you'll need to use TONS of different shots, basically every shot there is.
- the landscape is beautiful, especially during the fall (when I'm writing this); it looks like something you'd see on one of those websites with nature backgrounds.
- woods are well-enough trimmed, never too hard to find an errant shot or lost disc.
- course is busy on the weekends and nice days, which can be frustrating when there's a slow group in front of you but it's good to see more people getting out and playing.
- I've actually met the guy who designed the course and maintains it and it's easy to tell that he really does care and puts tons of work into it.
- as of Fall 2018 they're working on putting in stone teepads in place of the old dirt ones.
- there's some variety in the brick patterns on the new teepads, which I've never seen before and actually feels sort of unique.
- while it might not stretch out your drivers, it will really test your accuracy with your midranges and putter upshots.
- course if free to play.
- basket placements seem well thought out.
- signage between holes pointing where to go.
- plenty of trash cans.

- the course doesn't have a road address, so finding it can be tricky the first time around (park in the parking lot behind the HOM Furniture, next to the baseball fields.
- signs by each teepad don't have an illustration of the hole so sometimes you're blindly throwing into the woods; however, usually it's clear enough to be able to tell where to go.
- the distances on the teepad signs seem to be somewhat innacurate; they also don't say which pin location it's for.
- a few holes need to have certain trees taken down in the fairways; holes 5, 6, and ESPECIALLY Hole 10 have little to no line whatsoever, forcing you to inch your way up to the basket with shorter shots.
- water only really comes into play on one, maybe two holes.

This quickly became one of my favorite courses in the area after only playing it a few times. It's really fun because it's a short course (I think only 3 out of 21 holes are over 300ft), but it doesn't feel that way because of the variety in holes, unlike some short courses which get repetitive fast.

My favorite holes were 3, 5, 12, and 15.
- 3 - somewhat open but has trees guarding the front of the basket. The best play is a long anhyzer shot around the left, but if you're strong enough you could punch a hyzer around the right.
- 5 - probably the most picturesque hole on the course. Basket is straight ahead of the tee, but there's trees in the middle, forcing you to choose either the left or right side. There's a few too many trees now, both lines are really tight, but a little trimming and it would be amazing.
- 12 - starts out open but the basket area is really low-ceiling, and tucked away a little to the left, meaning a good hyzer shot from the tee could sneak all the way through, but you're not left with an unattainable par if you miss a little right.
- 15 - nothing too special, a nice dogleg to the right. If you throw a good forehand you could get up to the basket in one shot, but there's a line for a layup shot as well.

Overall this course is not one to play a tournament at ever, but it's a great little neighborhood course that I play as much as I can. It's super addicting because most of the holes are able to be reached in one shot, it's just a fairly difficult shot to pull off (usually). That'll keep you coming back for a while, and it's free to play which is nice; I've played pay-to-play courses far worse than this.

Most of the cons come from the course being relatively new and probably underfunded, but they're constantly working towards making it better. Some new tee signs would go a long way, and hopefully by the end of the 2019 season they'll finish updating the teepads.

It definitely takes a play or two to get used to the layout, but once you do, it's just a fun course.

Bonus story:
On Hole 11 there's a swampy water hazard to the right of the fairway, and of course my disc took a bad kick off a tree and landed about 6 feet into the marsh. It was a brand new Buzzz I just got the day before, and I could see it peeking through the water. I took off my socks and went into the water with just shoes on (big mistake, should have kept shoes dry and gotten socks wet). My feet sank like an entire foot into the mud as I fished the disc out with a stick and returned to land. The shoes were ruined, I threw them into a nearby trash can, and I somehow lost my socks somewhere so I played the remaining ten holes barefoot. So if you find a pair of green and black socks on Hole 11, you know where they came from.

- Quick round capability
- Technical holes - rewards players who possess strong backhand and forehand games
- Great use of space, elevation and water
- Difficult but won't leave you fuming
- Clean - lots of garbage cans
- Nice signage and paths to each teepad location
- No risk of disruption by non-disc golfers
- Holes spread out enough where you won't accidentally throw onto a group on another hole
- 21 holes with a nice range of short, technical and long throws

- I am sure this will be changed soon, so I am not knocking the rating based on this - no concrete teepads. But this has been hashed out below.
- Fairway ground needs some cleaning - a few small stumps remain and will catch any non-watchful player
- It looks like 1-2 holes could use a mando signage? I am sure this is coming too though

- I dont agree with some of the posts below saying the fairways need more trimming or clearing. This course rewards clean releases and accuracy, while you could get a kick into thick woods, all holes can be salved for bogey at worst. Only hole I imagine is unreachable is hole 14 (throwing from near play ground area into the woods with a tight window) but I think that is a solid par 3!

Tight, Technical course playing through 36 acres in Coon Rapids MN.
Some Elevation
You will use a variety of shots
White level course (int/adv) = tons of birdie chances!

Needs Clearing
A Tad short

Previous Con-Bridges; have been added! You should see a few adjustments moving forward
Previous Con-Signage: Directional signage was installed earlier this spring; we still need to update tee signs with dual pin positions and distances; once the majority of second positions are installed. For now, pay attention to the Facebook page for details; we'll move pins every 2 weeks.

As the Course designer, the course is setting up the way I planned. It will play a bit tight to begin with, but as players start playing this winter/spring, the fairways will open up a bit. The course will continue to expand and adjust over the next few years with Garbage cans, benches, more signage, bridges and ? to be added over the next few months. Natural teepads for now, either sand or chips to be added spring 2017 and cement in a couple of years. If you play this course every 6 months, you will see drastic GREAT adjustments to the course that will add more of a challenge and cater more towards adv/open players. One teepad planned with multiple pin positions added in 2017.

If you haven't played yet, take a pic of the map near hole 1. After hole 2, walk towards the road to walk around 18's teebox to head to 3's pad. Also, after hole 5, walk back towards the teebox about 20 feet to find the path to head to hole 6.

So far this spring, directional signage, bridges, and dual pins on 8 of the 21 holes have been added. Teepads (natural) should be added between now and the end of summer/2017; we are still a couple years out for cement teepads. The reason we're waiting on cement teepads is that we want to make sure the placements are in the safest spots that offer the best disc golf play; IMHO tough to argue against.
