Pros: I appreciate the fact that there are no completely wide open holes. As a beginner, I can't learn to avoid obstacles if there aren't any.

There are two or three holes with a valley between the tee and the hole that provide a chance to work on increasing distance drives assuming you can thread the admittedly large needle between the trees near the tees. They also give you a chance to work on your upshot if you don't clear the trees or can't throw it far enough to bridge the gap.

The course generally has good flow and finding the next tee is fairly easy. Some of the holes have (faded) arrows on their cement pads pointing to the next hole and that does help a bit.
Cons: The map by the start of the course gives you a feel for the general layout but doesn't give any additional information like hole length or pars. Luckily these are all on the signs by the tees themselves but knowing ahead of time what's what would be nice.

You never know what you'll find on the course, and I'm not talking about lost discs. I've seen broken glass under baskets, panties on tee signs, tee signs removed from the post (but luckily still at the tee), beer bottles and cans strewn about around the course... perhaps a few trash cans around would help a bit.
Other Thoughts: I started learning to play on this course and I'm still getting better by playing it. The nearby Baker Park course is much more extreme by comparison and I'm glad this course exists in contrast. It gives beginners a place to start and intermediates a chance to work on placement shots and improving their situational techniques, all without the threat of losing discs.

Pros: good ammounts of trees and slight elevation changes. Lots of places to eat close by. Extremely well taken care of park never lost a disc!!!
Cons: Tiny tee pads and when busy can get slightly congested
Other Thoughts: as the closest park to me this is a great way to spend a few hours and not be totaly winded
