treasure coast treasure 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Feb 1, 2017 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Great 18 holes, new layout, 2nd hole is now what was 3, and so on. Some holes have hills and hidden lines. fairly open for the most part. Some baskets are guarded by trees and brush. Grass cut by city I believe, so it well taken care of.

Cons:

It is a perverse, the wildlife was there 1st. Water on some holes can take your disc's.

Other Thoughts:

concrete pads coming soon.

Dimond in the rough 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 12, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

Very nice park, lots of water for wildlife viewing. Grass was cut and holes were wide open. With some signs this place will rock.

Cons:

Very difficult for beginners with the wind and water. We lost 3 discs here. The natural tees and signs were not so clearly understood.

Other Thoughts:

Next time I visit the area I will give this place another go!

Remote And Rustic 2+ years

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:May 31, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

One of the first things that I noticed was the isolation of this course. I'm used to heavily played courses in more urban environments. This course is out there. We played on a Tuesday morning and had the whole course to ourselves. Heck, we had the whole park to ourselves. It was nice.

The course has concrete tees and decent baskets.

The course has a nice mix of hole types and lengths with lakes in play and also some up and down hills. Recent heavy rains have turned hole 10 into almost an island hole.

The course is absolutely gorgeous. Lakes, trees, hills, critters etc.

Cons:

I wonder if they are going to mow the grass on this course, or just leave it natural. Keep an eye on your discs. Most of the grass like plants here are tall and thick and some are even worse.

There are some big gators lurking in the lakes.

I wouldn't recommend this course to beginners or those with weak constitutions. You will be slogging through tall grass, climbing up and down hills, and throwing at the water a lot.

Other Thoughts:

I like this course. It has to be one of the most remote courses in Florida. It really is in the middle of nowhere.

Tons of Potential 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Nov 28, 2015 Played the course:once

Pros:

Wide open shots mixed with longer holes allows you to throw some bombs. Elevation and water offer unique challenges. Very fun and well layed out course.

Cons:

This course was practically brand new when I played it. Trails need to be worked in and paths and fairways need to be mowed. Beware of fishermen near the shorelines. The winds can be your friend and your enemy as the course is wide open. Be cautious of wildlife as this area is a preserve.
