Pros: The course plays on a grassy hillside overlooking a large lake. The views from every hole are excellent, this is a beautiful location with lots of other fun activities available at the lodge. Scattered mature trees make for a couple low ceilings and a few baskets tucked behind obstacles.

I like seeing fun beginner courses in places that will expose new players, and this one definitely qualifies. The lines are varied, but open and fair with no rough to punish errant shots. The distances are short and navigation is easy, no time to get bored on long holes or long walks.
Cons: I rate every course on the same scale, if I was rating courses for kids or first time players this one would get a pretty good score. That said, my criteria for ratings are weighted heavily on challenge and variety, and you really won't find that here. Every shot is a long putt or short approach, the trees are used to maximum advantage but it isn't enough to add any difficulty. Most of the shots play across the hillside, so the elevation doesn't come into play as much as it could.

The tees are not level. I don't expect large tee areas on this short of a course, but throwing from a lumpy spot of grass with a side slope is a bit irritating. I have no issue with the cone baskets, especially on a beginner course, but many of the targets here were bent and deformed.
Other Thoughts: If you're looking for a fun family destination with a kid friendly course that won't take too long, this is your spot. I would take a new player here in a heartbeat, and with so many other activities it makes for a nice day. More experienced players should shoot the 9 holes in 18 or fewer strokes with only a putter or superclass disc, there's no challenge for anyone with a good jump putt or approach shot.
