Ontelaunee Park 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 17, 2015 Played the course:once

Pros:

Nine DIScatchers and a practice basket and fair condition. Each hole offers two tee areas, marked with a white strip, almost like a pipe. It's a rather short course, but you'll have to earn your birdies. Some challenge awaits you on every hole, from different lines to OB behind the basket (3) to water right (4b). Great to bring a beginner to, just make sure you help them to understand when not to throw (see cons). Plays quick. Depending on the volume of the park, you can get inventive with additional OB (see other thoughts).

Cons:

As it is, there is really no wow factor. It's not a complete pitch and putt, as hole four will show you, but nothing that stands out. Don't miss the fairways, especially on 1, 2, 4, and 5. You will not enjoy being in those areas. Hole 1 plays right next to the entrance road, can be dangerous, just don't throw if anyone is nearby or passing cars are nearby. Same goes for the drive of two. Soccer games can take out hole 4a and 9 completely.

Other Thoughts:

You can get creative with a few of the holes, You should play entrance road OB on 1 and same with creek, but you can play pavilion OB on two, soccer field OB on 4 and 9, make some mandos in your own group to make things more interesting, By all means don't waste your time driving out of the way to play here, but it's not a bad course if you're passing through or living nearby.
