Pros: There are cement tee pads. The fairways were mowed short, see the pics. The course flows logically starting by the bathroom and finishing south of the bathroom.
There were some trees that provide some obstacles to shoot around. One dog leg left and on deg leg right hole.
Holes are short.
Cons: The baskets! As the previous reviewer said your putts will fall out of the bottom of the basket. Saw this happen twice during our round. The chains on the basket don't do much for catching a disc either and I had a good putt go all the way through the basket. The fairways were very wet when we played. No distances or signage at all. Costs $5 for a vehicle pass and wasn't worth it in my opinion.
Other Thoughts: I guess a course is better than no course but this course is in some serious need of some attention. If you added actual baskets it would certainly help. On your way into the park you will notice some hills and heavily wooded areas and wonder why something wasn't put in this area. I would not play here again because it isn't anything that is all that special. I hate to blast a course, I don't think the $5 was justified. If you like a short course with shady catching baskets then roll the dice here. If not move on down the road and hit Independence College. You'll be glad you did.

Pros: Easy to navigate in a clockwise circle.
Concrete tees.
Lake is great for boating/skiing and campsite is nice.
Cons: This course is in rough shape and doesn't get much use.
Area is prone to flooding and at times very wet.
Pins/holes are some older style and most discs fall through gaps in the baskets.
Park usually requires a vehicle tag or fee so to avoid this you need park before the gate and walk 400 meters.
Other Thoughts: Despite all the Cons, this park could be a nice beginner course with a little TLC and basket upgrades.
