Windy fun
Pros: front 9 is great, shorter holes with varied elevation and trees. no water hazards but there is a few spots you're in danger of losing a disc to the woods.
Cons: can get Extremely Windy!!! right next to the highway and airport. mostly open holes.
theres a couple spots that you have to throw over a road or really close to a parking lot
navigation can be a little confusing the first time you play here so print out a map or play with someone who's been there

Other Thoughts: i like this course as long as its not to windy (which it often is) but if its a nice day it can be a lot of fun.

Quick update Pros: After seeing some of the other reviews, I just wanted to say there are tee numbers, but no map. The course is freshly mowed, no trash and a great course for intermediate and above players. It's a truly fun and unique course despite the hazards below.
Cons: Players can easily lose discs to the interstate, bad safety hazards on several holes where the fairways cross the tees to other holes. Several shots across roads, near parking areas or tennis courts and walkways. Beginners should expect to bogey or above on most holes just for safety concerns.
Other Thoughts: If you don't have a map (look under files/links), you may think this is a 9-hole course like the first three times we played here!

This review was updated on 7/14/2011
Pros: It had been a few years since I last played there, but the changes were for the good (mostly). There use to be a hole that ran along the entrance drive (hated this hole because I always ended up in someones back yard). The newer (new to me) holes in the back are a good addition (although two do intersect #12 & #13- very annoying when someone else is playing right behind you).
After the course dries out sometime in June the course is much easier to navigate - quite a few holes get flooded out in the spring (#3 & #14 especially).

Cons: -No signage. Certain holes can be confusing (#10 & #15). Be sure to print off the map, it will help.
-The tall grass & the gazebo in the middle of one of the holes (we actually had picnickers in the way & had to carefully play around). The fairways are usually well kept (a pro actually) so this forces you to really work on trying to stay out of the rough as well as paying attention to where your disc lands. I've spent WAY too much time hunting for strays discs.
-The one thing that hasn't changed is how windy it is there, be sure to use discs that can handle a strong headwind (the Firebird works really well).
-Dirt tee pads.
-Paved trail that winds its way through or along most of the holes. The locals who use the trail are generally good about waiting for you to throw. They've probably had their share of discs whizzing by their heads enough times that they'd rather wait then be decapitated.

Other Thoughts: Overall, the course is well laid out (with the exception of the intersecting holes) as long as you have a map to show you where the next tee pad is located.
This is one of the better courses in the GR area. Could be the best with the addition of cement tee pads, tee signage & moving some of the holes out of the path of pedestrians & cars.

Not as long as you think 
Pros: Lots of room for big arms. Mowed fairways help navigation. Some elevation changes, one long uphill. Not alot of disc golf traffic.
Cons: The downloadable map with scorecard is decieving. The lengths listed on card are nowhere near actual distances(play far shorter than listed). Couldnt find tee off on #14(blind uphill drive). No signs. Couldnt use intended tee box on #10 due to kids soccer game. Lots of traffic due to soccer and field hockey games going on. Played early Sat morning.
Other Thoughts: Dont go on a Sat morning. At least not during soccer and field hockey season. With signage this would be a really nice course. Need to get the scorecard found on this site figured out as it is not correct to actual distance.

Cons: -download a course map or youll never figure this park out
- the layout of the course is a bit goofy
-several baskets near parking lots (literally like 5 feet from parked cars)
-must throw over the road with cars driving by some times.
-holes criss crossing each other
-mediocre course design, theres so much room here and they laid this course out wrong in my opinion.
-no pads , tees are natural
-no signs, poles, markings for the course whatsoever
-along the highway for the first 5 holes,
- it is usually very windy.
-lacking more obstacles, most holes are just very long with 1-2 trees to avoid.

Other Thoughts: This park used to be a pole course, i played it 15 years ago.It continues to get better every year. Plan on being here a while, lots of ground to cover.

Getting better all the time
Pros: Cascade has been getting better since it was created 3 years ago. The county now only mows the fairways making it much easier to navigate. The course is extremely long and will give you a lot of practice with your drivers. A variety of shots make this course a lot of fun. Uphill, downhill, flat, blind, short, LONG, left, right....great course.
Cons: Dirt pads accompanied with no signs can make the course difficult to navigate the first time you play it. But now that they just cut the fairways it's much easier to see where you should be going.

long and windy 
Pros: long holes. nice rolling hills. not to many people even in the playing area.
Cons: hard to find next tee pads, not cemented and no signs. next to airport so it is always windy.
Other Thoughts: on one of the back nine holes there is a parking lot running along side the fairway. when cars are parked there you need to be careful. it annoys me.

Great potential
Pros: Excellent use of elevation on holes 4,5,7,10,15, and 16, and obstructed holes, especially 4, 5, 12, and 14.
Watch the tennis courts on 17.
You will need an arm as many holes exceed 400'. The short holes can be quite a challenge, especially 13 -- basket is a few feet from OB. Control is essential.

Cons: Easy to get lost -- No tee pads or signs -- I played it over the July 4th weekend, and while the park was busy, not many folks were disc golfing.
I did run into some local disc golfers on my last round, and they said that they had plans to improve the course.
The drainage stinks, there was lots of "casual water" -- wetlands really -- when I played it. Especially around 3, 11, and 12.

Other Thoughts: The course is relatively "young" so I am confident that the local club will bring it to fruition in time.

Open Layout
Pros: Challenging course with some holes to challenge some pretty long arms. Really nice use of the somewhat hilly terrain. # 15 was the signature hole of the course IMO. 360' to the pin down hill and then right back up again with trees at the bottom creating a gap to shoot through. If you can hit the gap andhave reasonable distance you're golden otherwise it's trouble.
Cons: Baskets are marked with hole numbers and that's about all the help you get. Look for dirt patches and then try to figure out what basket they're pointing at. Had to make up some tee's on our own.
Other Thoughts: I don't agree with the am par listed but I am not sure what protocol is for changing it. I play in the Am3/Rec/Novice division in my leagu and I shot a 55 my first time ever on the course, so par 73 seems a little high. I am also skeptical on the distances list, they seemed shorter, but I had no measuring devices andwasn't sure I was throwing from the right tee.

Rolling hills 5+ 7/21/2007 5/12/2008
Review By: FoleyT 
Played: 86 Reviewed: 85 Exp: 8 Years
This review was updated on 10/31/2008
Pros: Lots of long challenging holes. Elevation changes and interesting layout make for an enjoyable course when the weather is right. Some really outstanding scenic holes, and plenty of chances to open up and let it fly.
Cons: Wind is almost always a constant issue here. Last I played this course, there still weren't tees or signage adequately marked and unless you know the course well, it is easy to get lost. Little shade in the heat of summer and can make this an endurance test if you forget to bring water. Lots of pedestrian traffic can be frustrating at times. Could use a few more short 'finesse' holes to balance out all the 400 footers.
Other Thoughts: A second set of 'recreational tees' might make this a friendlier course for people new to the sport. As it is, it can be frustratingly long for beginners.
Update 10/31/08: Some renovations going on at this park. #12 basket was missing, and it looks as if a small pond or wetland is in the process of being installed around the 12,13 area. Am waiting for some signage or tee pads to be installed at this park, and perhaps some rethinking of some of the badly designed holes (11 & 13 come to mind especially) -- with all the space available at this park, you'd think they could do a better job of avoiding the playgrounds, soccer fields, tennis courts, parking lots, paths, roads, gazebos, etc etc etc.
