Report this Review PUMP HOUSE
Pros: SHORT NINE PLAYS QUICK AND EASY. GREAT PLACE TO BUILD CONFIDENCE. SHORT HOLES MAKES FOR A LOT OF BIRDIE ATTEMPTS.. GOTTA LOVE THAT
Cons: WAITING FOR A CLEAR PATH , HOLES CROSS OVER EACH OTHER AND MAKES IT DIFFUCULT ON BUSY DAYS OUT THERE.
Other Thoughts: IT IS A FUN COURSE OVER ALL, i LIKE PLAYING THE PUMP HOUSE THAN MINILA THAN A ROUND AT COOPERS. THAT IS A DAMN GOOD DAY OF DISC. ALL 3 SHORT COURSES. JUST AS YOUR DONE WITH WAITING IN ONE CROWD YOU GO TO THE NEXT COURSE. ONLY TO PLAY THESE THREE .

enjoyable
Pros: -Not much brush to lose a disc in
-I haven't seen it get overly busy.
-About a medium difficulty. A beginner and an expert can both enjoy a round here.
-For a 9-hole course it offers a surprisingly diverse range of shots.

Cons: -Gets muddy in places, so bring good shoes.
-Some tees are near enough to other baskets that you could get hit by a disc if you don't pay attention.
-Oh how I wish it was longer!

Other Thoughts: Charming 9 hole course with holes that require a diversity of shots. Next to the river so a great summer course since you can go swimming before/after. It's not earth shattering but still a fun mellow course worth checking out.

Pros: OVERVIEW: Though the Pump Station is a small course, it offers a variety of shots that other park courses don't always offer. Some narrow allies and good basket placements can make it harder than it looks. Though some pin placements leave one wanting a little more. RECENTLY, a Par Infinity work party has laid gravel tee-pads on #1, #4, and #5. Which, for those that know the course, is a huge improvement. Great locals, and some fun alternates make The Pump definitely worth playing.

Perfect for a tune up round
Pros: Perfect little course to squeeze in a round when time is tight. Or....better yet, get loose for a round at the Curtain. If you want to mix it up, try taking a creative line to the basket...you don't have to throw right at it on the easy holes. This course allows you to make it what you want.
Cons: It's pretty easy...but it's fun.

Pros: Out of town, good afternoon weather away from the coast. Right beside the river.
Cons: Holes parallel each other with little vegetation to catch discs, makes the course crowded and slow. Most of the course is straight and open, not much variety.

A Good Nine Holes
Pros: Nice baskets. Course is very easy to follow. The Mad river is right there if you're in the mood for a swim. I've caught a couple of steelhead there prior to playing a round - sweet. Every basket has two positions so there is some degree of challenge to the course.
Cons: Big groups can be a pain to play behind. Wear boots in the wet months. Keep your eyes open for stray throws - seriously! Locals will get upset with anyone who displays bad etiquette (rightly so) so behave yourself and follow the rules.
Other Thoughts: Actually none of the fairways cross each other, but due to their close proximity to one another and errant toss can be hazardous. This is very easy to avoid however if you don't walk through someone's fairway. I nailed a guy once because he simply wasn't paying attention - even after I called FORE and everyone but him ducked. If you're playing solo you can move through nine holes in less than 30 minutes. Hole 5 always experiences a bottleneck, but you can play through the big groups on the next hole very easily.

Improving! 
Pros: They have improved the course.
Some of the holes have block tee-pads.
New pin position on #1 makes the hole more exciting.
Several pins are guarded by creeks (ob).
Longer more challenging holes than other 9 hole courses.
Mad River locals are less sketchy than the other local 9-hole courses.

Cons: Crossing Fairways Everywhere! I think only one fairway doesn't cross another fairway. I've been hit! And am nearly hit everytime I go out there. FORE!
Super muddy in the winter; and wet grass.
Crowded on sunny weekends and late weekday afternoons - with huge groups (9-sums).
A few of the tee-pads not improved yet.

Other Thoughts: I would only consider two of the holes challenging. (although some newer pin positions are increasing the value of the course). Otherwise there are a lot of ace runs and low scores to be had. Since the park is about 100 yards wide and 1/8 mile long, they did a good job utilizing the space. However, I have never seen a more dangerous course. Keep your eyes open and be prepared to duck.
My best score: -6

Other Thoughts: this is a nice easy course located closely between the curtain and fieldbrook (2 hard courses) i only rated it a 2.5 because it is typical, but sometimes thats what i feel like playing... glad its here.
