Pros:

Nice long concrete tee pads (great for people who take long steps on the run up). Baskets in perfect condition. Signs at each tee pad telling the distance to the basket. Tape on each basket pointing the way to the next tee pad.

Cons:

The only cons I could see are that there are not many technical shots. The other is of no ones fault but the drought that has been going on the last couple of years has taken its toll on the course, but they do have some younger trees there that should make it great in a few years.

Other Thoughts:

It appears like the Rotary Club built this course. Kudos to them they did a fantastic job. This course is much much better than many on this site that have a higher rating.

Pros:

In a very well maintained park with trees planted in rows and "front lawn" type grass. The baskets are new and in very good shape. Hole numbers are clearly marked on top of the basket. Very good use of trees and what elevation changes there are available.

The course has brand new concrete tees! All have pro tees also. There are signs at the pro tees. This eliminated the cons in my first review. You can see the baskets from the tees, so the course is very easy to follow. Nice long holes. Very high fun factor. Keep your throws out of the baseball and YMCA fields and you won't lose a disc.

Cons:

No water hazards... you could make some of the drainage areas out of bounds, but you won't lose a disc. The sign on #10 states that the draw running from the parking lot is OB. No "rough" to play from. It's all short grass.

Other Thoughts:

What an improvement the tees have made. This is a very fun course. Certainly not easy, considering the frequent wind, but not so hard that a beginner can't have fun, too. The only ace run from both tees is the 1st hole. 9 is possible from the short tee. I can't wait to bring my discs back to this course.
