Played the course:once
Pros:
- This is a diamond in the rough! A course I knew nothing about, nor did anyone I played with! A new course, with not must exposure or so it seemed.
- Great overall quality of the course, in what seems to be a very clean and well maintained park, which also the course itself was excellent and maintained properly.
- Easily to maneuver and find your way hole to hole.
- Map and scorecard located at the beginning for your convenience.
- Fun holes for beginners to experts.
- Practice basket off to the right of the first teepad.
- Walkways and trails through woods are clean and free of debris.
- Played on a beautiful afternoon and ran into just one other group of two, seems to be an unknown course!
- Freshly controlled burned, clearing up all the excess weeds and grass.
- Trash cans keep the course clean, the signage was great for holes as well as pointing you towards the next hole!

Cons:
- The walk from a few holes seemed excessively long, at least for being just 12 holes.
- I think they could have easily made this a 15 or 18 hole course, a lot of land seemed to be "wasted" in my opinion by having these longer walks from hole to hole. I kept hearing from the group I was playing with, "They should have cart rentals here, this is getting ridiculous!" I can agree but it wasn't the worst thing possible.
- I managed to lose a disc in some nasty mucky swamp water, I am assuming it's only wet and mucky due to the low elevation and the rest of the area around it slopes into a little drainage hole in a sense.
- I am not sure if this would be a con, but I am bummed that this course is so far out of the metro! It was a little bit of a hike to get to and that's a bummer, because this course was a great round of disc golf action!

Other Thoughts:
I really don't know what I could add here besides the fact they should really look into adding 3 possibly 6 holes and make this course top of the line! Anyone who's in the Twin Cities and surrounding area should make an attempt to get out here and throw at least one round, because it's a great change of pace and is a fun course all around! I will have to mark this course down as one I will play again this summer!
