Reviewed: Played on:Jan 13, 2018 Played the course:once

Pros:

- free to play, plenty of parking
- concrete tees with signs embedded in the pad
- detailed tee signs, listed distances and basket directions
- hilly landscape with lots of trees that features inclining and declining fairways
- hard to lose a disc, cleanly landscaped fairways
- a fun mix of distances, and right/left favorable fairways
- not necessarily a pitch and putt 9 hole course
- trash cans
- lots of shade
- beginner friendly

Cons:

- too many traversing fairways
- I couldn't figure out where to tee off for #9
- no bathrooms, benches
- no multiple tees, only one hole with multiple pins
- no practice basket

Other Thoughts:

Dinglewood is a hilly 9 hole course that works itself clockwise up and traverses throughout the landscape. I am unfamiliar with the type of baskets, but they caught decently, had numbers on them, and where visibly noticable with their red coloring. The tees were concrete and had the fairway information on placards mounted to the back side of the pads. A couple pads were uneven or cracked due to settling, which is probably inevitable with the landscape given. The only one that confused me was #9. My guess is that the tee off was reassigned by the looks of the pad and where the actual basket was located.

The course was a lot of fun. There were big trees to shot shape around and unaobstructed fairways lanes to the baskets. The fairways were typically under 300 feet and the canopy was rarely an issue. All the holes could be birdied, given the right amount of touch.

My complaints about the course are few, mostly having to do with the layout. The baskets didn't appear to have sleeves and were firmly cemented into the ground. This combined with the lack of descending fairways was disappointing. IMO, a hilly course with barely any downhill drives isn't meeting it's full potential. Multiple pins could right that wrong, but only hole #1 had them. It was a flat fairway and they were both very similar. Caution: bums could be living in the nearby woods surrounding the top of the course.
