(0.916 Rating) An open forgettable layout.
- QUICK PLAY - 15 minutes... that players will wish they had back if they stray here without doing some research. I did like the fact that the course plays in a loop.
- NAVIGATION - No map, no directional cues, no problem. The course is so open that I just turned my head until I saw the next marker. I often spotted it before I even finished the prior hole. Perhaps (3) to (4) can be tricky, but its intuitive to keep walking around the fence. Tee signage is adequate for this style of course. I really only needed the distance.
- ACEABILITY - Three tee shots 200 feet or less. I mind aced all of them before throwing.
- BEGINNER FRIENDLY - A mostly forgiving layout with hazards limited to tall grasses along the fringes. A good place to learn the game for those that live within a couple miles. The park appears to be well keep up too.

Very limited appeal.
- LACK OF CHALLENGE - The number of natural obstacles in play is disappointing. Trees only come into fringe play on (1), (2) and (3). Hole distance variation is minimal, 175 to 315 feet. There is no water and elevation change is less than 15 feet on every hole. 850 rated players should be able to shoot are birds from time to time.
- UNIQUENESS - Way too open for my tastes. All 5 baskets can be attacked from numerous angles. It's pretty much a "look at the distance and grab a disc" kind of layout. I just ran right at basket every time. 4 times with putters and once with a driver.
- MULTI USE HAZARDS - Ball field fences are in play on 3 of the 5 holes.
- CHARACTER - Other than reasonable tees and tee signs, there no other disc related extras. The baskets are lower quality MachIIs. There is no seating, extra tees, alt basket locations or practice baskets. I saw some locked up stacked picnic tables under a large pavilion. There is also likely a restroom somewhere in the park, but I didn't see where.
- NATURAL BEAUTY - The most beautiful course around for those that have only played this course. I'd put Vernon among my bottom 15 for beauty, out of 326 courses played to date.
- MISSED OPPORTUNITIES - Unless I am mistaken, but it seems as though that there's room for additional holes in the park's fallow areas. Perhaps enough room to add at least 4 holes, maybe more. Hopefully that's the future plan.

The Vernon course needs more of everything. More holes, better use of site features, more challenge and more comfort touches. It's likely a nice place for practicing multiple shots off the tee as those that come here will likely be the only one throwing. Other than for course baggers and those that live within a mile, there is no reason to ever come here.
