Pros: Nice baskets, grass stays cut, easy to find, over par'd so it can build confidence, plays quick if you are looking for something fast.
Cons: Only 9 holes, tee pads (although concrete) are a joke due to their size, not much of a challenge (no wooded area at all), constantly having to wait to make sure people are out of your way while they are walking on the track if it is a busy day, some holes can become a swamp after a moderate rain.
Other Thoughts: Like the title says, not much to see here. If you have children you can bring them here and allow them to play, while you sling a few discs and still keep an eye on them at the same time.

just Opinions from me... see Reviews below. 
Other Thoughts:
- Everything DiscChainBasket18, Cmdrmack, billtvshow, and heelboycraig said… there is not too much to add. So I will just say…
- If you're looking to add another course to your courses played list, Bethel Park is a cute little disc golf course that deserves your consideration… especially with the recent installation of a bigger, more attractive, disc golf 'only' course a few miles away at Catawba Meadows.
- Coming from Los Angeles I am used to sharing real-estate with other park users; however, holes 8 and 9 play a little too close to a basketball court and playground. The rest of the holes have other "traffic" issues… but, if you're patient it's not the end of the world.
- There seemed to be plenty of room in a less populated part of the park where the course could be relocated and/or redirected toward. This would eliminate the danger associated with 8 and 9 and provide for some better shots.
- Bethel Park DGC is a much better time than its "disc score" might indicate. I wasn't mad at it.

Pros: Good practice course.
It has a very hard left turn on hole three that has a number of possibilities to play.
Hole four is a close shot that allows for the possibility of an Ace, shown be the handful of signatures on the basket.
Holes five and six allow for one to fire off some really long drives.
Course flows very well from one hole to another.

Cons: Not a lot of drainage on the course, which makes for a very marshy experience if there has been recent rain. It can get kind of gross out there.
The course is very open, but one still has to worry about people walking, children playing, or basketball/soccer players. Also, hole four has a blind corner right next to the only restroom in the park, and someone could easily get hit by a disc.

Other Thoughts: As a Morgantonian myself, it's great to have a local park. This park has a good variety of shots, especially considering the limitations of a venue that was not designed originally for a disc golf course.
If I were learning how to play disc golf again, this is the kind of course I would want to have nearby.

Bethel Park DGC Review 1
Pros: -Baskets are very solid standard Innova baskets with yellow tops.
-Course is marked pretty well and generally easy to follow.
-Scorecards are occasionally provided in the box next to the first tee.
-Morganton's first disc golf course: gets more people into the game.
-Very good beginner course: holes are open for people with less refined throws, but also has some holes with trees as obstacles to give them a taste of how more difficult courses feel. It also has a combination of flat, uphill, and downhill holes to add to the variety. They have also provided recreational pars for each hole, though experienced players will usually consider all of the holes here to be Par 3's.
-The park is typically mowed weekly to bi-weekly. On occasion the grass gets a few inches high, but it is generally very well kept.

Cons: -Pads: The tee pads, while concrete, are very small and you will notice that many players throw from beside of the tee pads instead.
-Interference: Besides the foot traffic on the walking track, you will sometimes encounter soccer (1, 6, 7) & basketball games (8) near or in the playing area.
-Repetitive holes: 1, 5, 7, 8, and 9 all feel relatively similar and the majority of the course is very, very open. Even the wooded holes can be navigated with relative ease.
-Challenge: Overall, when compared to most disc golf courses that I've played, this course is a walk in the park, excuse the pun. If you desire challenge, this is not the course for you.

Other Thoughts: Least Favorite Hole: It has to be #7. It's the most bland hole on the course; completely wide open.
Favorite Hole: It used to be #8 when there was a lightpole directly in the middle of the line to the hole (they removed it, d'oh!), but now I would have to say #3. It has the most character of any hole. You can throw through a few small gaps in the trees to cut a lot of distance off of the hole (huge risk-reward shot) or you can throw out to the right (safe shot) and take the longer approach up the mildly wooded steep hill.
