Other Thoughts:
By the looks of the property, I can only surmise this area was once a sizable RV park. There are remnants of old utility boxes here and there, small paved paths running all around the park, and there's waterside lodging adjacent to course. Post'l' Point's concrete tees look great, each has an informative tee sign listing distance and basket direction. Tall, bare trunked, high limbed trees are scattered throughout the course. These tree filled fairways make for great obstacles without clogging up the fairways. The high canopy also helps create natural shade. Fairway lengths vary between short and medium distances, one or two of them are little longer.
Post'l Point's flat landscape feels a little bland and repetitive. Baskets could use a splash of color or a flag to help them stand out. I think something as simple as adding multiple pins would greatly help add variety. Minor cons aside, I was pleasantly surprised by this course. Everything looked new, the course was clean, and the overall design was sound. There's not a whole lot of wow factor here, but it's pretty special compared to your typical military style course. Better yet, there's a beach on location for post disc golf recreational enjoyment. Come for the frolf, stay for the beach!
Travelers beware: ODR is incredibly lazy and will schedule various events that may block holes 1,17 & 18 instead of using open, non disc golf designated land, slightly further away.
