Improved a bunch 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 25, 2017 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

The baskets are DB-5's but inner chains have been added and they are playing great. I'd rate the baskets above Mach III's now because the inner chains are more substantial than a Mach III.

The front 9 tee boxes now have pavers installed too.

The grass is always mowed well and the campus is very quiet.

My favorite part of the course is the back 9 alternate layout which doesn't have tee pads, but makes for some interesting and long par 3's.

Cons:

There's no bathrooms on site for public players.

The back 9 doesn't have paver teeboxes- but honestly it would be too many tee pads in terms of peppering the landscape...

The parking is technically not allowed next to the first hole- a lot of people use that lot, which i've never heard of problems with, but I think the signs indicate that you should be parking down the hill near basket 3- that's a larger lot.

Other Thoughts:

I like this course because it's quiet and the grass is cut nice and low. I still do a legit tick check after i play, but i know there are far less ticks compared to when you play Pye Brook.

Course updated since last reviews.... 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 22, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

Nice 9 hole layout.
One 555' par 4 (wide open)
Tee boxes on every hole.
Signs on every hole.
Nice elevation changes.
Not crowded (I was the only one playing).

Cons:

First basket hard to find without a map.

Some foot traffic to watch out for.

Tee boxes are filled with sand stone, which packs nicely, but some are uneven in front, either from excessive use, or rain washout. (not a show stopper, but just wanted to mention it).

Read online that there were 18 holes, or at least a different configuration of the first nine, but I could only figure out the first 9 holes.

Other Thoughts:

The last review was 2+ years old, so I thought I would add a recent one.

This is a legitimate 9 hole course, which I enjoyed playing. I will definitely go back here when I am in the area again.
