Pros: -concrete teepads on all holes
-tall white post (6'-7') next to every teepad--easily seen from the previous basket
-logical flow--easy to go from hole to hole since the post nearest the basket shows the next tee.
-tee pads in line with each basket so that you can pretty easily spot which basket you're throwing to.
-great variety of shots--keeps it interesting
-baskets in good condition
-numbers on baskets,though not readable from a distance
-lots of varied elevation
-lots of mature trees that shape the holes
Cons: -mostly shorter holes (150'-300')--only a con if you don't like that. There are perhaps 4 holes with distances of 300'-400'+, though none at 500+.
-baskets seem a bit tall and the gap between the bottom of the chains and the top of the basket portion is inconsistent from hole to hole--sometimes oddly large.
-tee pads are too short--maybe 8'. This is not a problem for most of the holes, or any of them if the ground is dry behind them...
-distances?--nothing marked
-tees not numbered yet, but since the course flow is so nice, it's pretty much a non-issue
-a few trash cans in the park, but none at the tee pads
Other Thoughts: -signage that includes distance to basket would be a great addition to this course.
-I listed "mostly short holes" as a con because I'm used to shorter holes being very technical (Wilbur Young DGC is my home course). I will say that the holes with greater distances were very fun to throw.
-Beware the gully on the fairways of 4, 6, and possibly 7. I lost one and found [a different] one on 4. There were dark pools of water in it when I played.
-I have a friend who lives here and I will play this course every time I visit. It was fun in the middle of winter and it was fun with every tread under my shoes filled with mud.

Pros: -Looked like they were in the process of installing cement tee pads, where there in half the holes and were putting one in as we were playing.
-Had a variety of holes using the elevation and the trees in the park.
-Has a couple holes where you can air it out
-Baskets were in good shape (red instead of yellow top)
-Plenty of shade
Cons: -Hard to find a few tee pads because the steaks are small and there are no signs. We had to guess at the distances
-17 is close to the public pool
Other Thoughts: It looks like they are in the process of upgrading the course. If they add signs I'd move this to a 3.5. Get ready to go hike on some hills because you will walk up about 5 hills and one is steep. I would definently play this course again, but I dont see myself going near Centerville anytime soon.
The basket for hole 5 was hard to see, it was on top of the hill to the right by the trees

Pros: Good elevation. Great mixture of shots for both backhand and forehand throwers. Fairly well maintained park. Attainable distances for beginners and amateurs.
Cons: Tees are wooded posts in the ground not often #'d. Some baskets are hard to judge as they pertain to the tees. Hole 4 and 7 require crossing a potentially hazzardous ravine depending on your drive.
Other Thoughts: Overall a pretty good course to play.

Pros: Good elevation. You definitely get a workout when you play here because you are constantly going from hill to hill. This course also had a good nature factor, there were a countless number of squirrels climbing the various trees.
Cons: Confusing. My brother and I played this course for the first time, and we couldn't find where to tee off on hole 4 because tee-off spots were just wooden steaks in the ground without any numbers on them. We also didn't find hole 9 at all.
