Pros: -Nice baskets.
-Decent use of available elevation.
-Water is somewhat of a hazard on hole one.
-Tees are marked by wood posts and the signage is very good.
-Scorecards with map, par, distance are available at tee one.
-Plenty of parking, garbage cans, bathrooms, etc. This is a very nice and cleanly place.
-One hole requires an overhand shot and another greatly encourages it.
-No holes are too short or too long. Good varied distances throughout.
-Layout is pretty easy to follow, especially with map.
-Course has a good fun factor, not too hard and not too easy. There are one or two holes where aces are possible.
Cons: -Tees are natural, not too bad though.
-Only 9 holes when 18 could easily be here.
-Park can be busy so you might have to wait or keep your eyes open for people.
-Could lose a disc in the lake on hole one but that would take a decent overthrow.
Other Thoughts: This is a decent course in a good place. The recreation areas in the area are awesome for many activities and I'm glad disc golf was thought of too. However, they could greatly expand this course into the woods and make it much better and more challenging. Fantle Memorial Park in town is the best course in the area but this one is a close second.

 There is a DG Course here?

Pros: To clarify the title, let me say this place is so beautiful that it took me like 4 holes to just stop looking around at the surroundings and remember the real reason I came here. The course is in great shape, well maintained, and use the slight elevation that it does have. There are scorecards on the first hole. (Yes, there were actually some there.) Hole #1 actually shoots out toward the lake, but you would have to really over throw it to get wet. There are just a few trees on the course and they get used once or twice. Navigation is easy and the posts marking the tees do have the hole number on them. The variety of hole lengths is fine for the area they used for the course. The grass tees actually have grass on them and the baskets were in fine shape. There is a bathroom just a short walk away and the parking area is small but suitable.
Cons: The tee area is not always level and there is no real foul lines. Most of the holes here are wide open with little to no challenge to them.
Other Thoughts: The Fun Factor here is just OK. The course really did not do much for me. There just isn't anything to brag about here except for the view and the surrounding area being this beautiful. Playing this course is not really worth the $3, but it is to just hang out for a while down in this area. However, this would be a great place to bring a disc golf first date. ;)

Pros: Wide open, flat throws for the most part with a not-so-tricky tree line to pass through on one hole.
Cons: Not challenging for anyone above a true beginner. There is also a walking path and road which cut through the course.
Other Thoughts: Great if this is your first time playing disc golf or if you want to practice drives in a wide open space. You can take a hike after you play or just admire the beautiful bluffs on the lake.
