Cute Course

Pros: The expansion of new tee boxes finally brings some variety to the course. Tree placement makes this course. Holes are not very long but the tree placement makes this course extremely fun. Baskets and paved tee boxes are well maintained.
Cons: with no other courses near by and only having 9 holes can make it very crowded. It it still a public park and you have to watch out for kids. Bugs mid summer are at a constant annoyance level of EXTREME.
Other Thoughts: Lost 3 discs total (2 star bosses and 1 champion ape) on hole 2 going for the basket but over-threw into the lake. Be wary.

  Course Keeps Improving

Pros: Mature trees and many elevation changes make this a very fun course. Tee pads are concrete and large. The local disc golf club does a good job of keeping the course clean.
Cons: It is only 9 holes and could use a good drinking fountain somewhere along the way.
Other Thoughts: ******COURSE IMPROVEMENTS in 2011*****

"Pro" tee pads and alternate pin locations for all 9 holes have been laid out and approved by the city. The work will be completed this spring. These modifications were put in place to give players the option to up the difficulty of the course. The local club has two leagues that play on Wednesday nights. One Pro and one Rec.

 Great 9 Hole Oasis

Pros: -Great long shot opportunities
-Cement tee pads
-Very Well Kept Grounds
-Very Secluded; the entire Island area has become primarily a disc golf course
-Hole 2 can be played from the parking lot dirt spot, making it a very entertaining long drive over the road
-Very large mature trees, which give the course a whole new dimension
-Friendly locals (When you run in to people)
-Virtually no wait ever
-Chains are very well kept
Cons: -Only 9 holes long
-The bugs can get heavy in the more woody and shaded areas.
-Trash cans are usually full as they get a good deal of use (which is why the course is so clean)
Other Thoughts: -BRING BUG SPRAY! or move fast
-Driving 2 from the parking lot is a must
-Police drive through the area occasionally so be wary of the white cruisers if you plan to indulge
-2 Also brings water in to play if you lack distance control

 Nice course in a Nice Park

Pros: -Signs tell length
-Lots of elevation changes, play a part in almost every hole.
-No 2 holes are the same.
-Not too busy so you wont have to wait.
-Public beach right next to course.
-Minimal chances of a lost disc.
-Baskets all in good shape.
-Easy to know which basket you are aiming for and easy to find next hole.
-Park is well kept and clean.
-This area of park is used solely for disc golfing purposes.
-Large, mature trees and interesting pin placements make this course very challenging. More than it would seem.
Cons: -Dirt tee boxes may get muddy when wet.
-Tee boxes are basically holes in the ground where people have decided to tee off from.
Other Thoughts: Challenging and interesting. One of my favorite 9 hole courses. Could possibly be expanded into 18 holes but that would probably interfere with the rest of the park.

Pros: Challenging holes that provide a lot of obstacles, and elevation changes. Mature trees, and attractive scenery.
Cons: Only 9 holes. Dirt tee boxes. No real hole explination, or course direction shown at tee boxes. Very buggy in the back sections of the course.
Other Thoughts: I would consider this an average course, and maybe a little harder than I expected. Some of the holes are pretty simple, but some are nearly impossible to get a respectable score on unless you are VERY precises or very lucky. Either way the course is laid out fairly good, and the views are pretty neat at points.

Pros: Lengthy course with many chalenging shots, including hole sevens elevation drop. Mature trees. Never much waiting.
Cons: Grass length is long, no skip shots. Tee boxes are dirt and become muddy.
Other Thoughts: Baskets all in good shape. Slim chance of losing discs. Very nice park. Wooded course, keeping disc low is a must.
