Good Course of Beginners 
Pros: No need for a variety of shots (though this could be a con as well)
Small chance of getting a big roller
Good for beginners

Other Thoughts: You only need your basic straight and flat drive for this course. There are dog legs on only two holes. I have nothing against a course that is good for beginners though. I do have qualms when the scenery is uninteresting though. Any way we can get something other than grass planted out there? As the tee boxes are dirt, most of them dip in the middle and have rocks protruding which make a few of them unsafe. If not for the tee boxes needing maintenance, I would have given a higher rating.

Pros: Pretty easy to find, the directions here are right on. If your looking for a reference point Sonoma College is close.
Course plays around a hill. Lots of tall weeds and stickers this time of year. HOT HOT HOT. Bring plenty of water. The course itself is pretty basic with the exception of a couple holes. Some holes play on and along the walking path so be sure you are in the clear before tossin your plastic! I did not use the on site restrooms while there so I can not confirm if the are flush or hole in the ground, however based on the lack of running water I would assume the latter. There are a few good holes and the course plays a bit flat then some up hill and downhill. Overall not bad if your in the area looking for something to do.

Cons: $6 to park? Total rip off.
Other Thoughts: Watch for hikers/bikers/horses. And watch where you step do to the horses.
I will play it again next time I am in the area and hope to play it in the cooler months when the weeds may not be to bad.
Watch for poison oak on hole 7 I think it was. (its the first one you come to where the tee pad is on the trail)

More Creeky Please 
Pros:
• Nearly impossible to lose a disk
• Pretty easy to navigate although there are a couple hole-transitions where you might go the wrong way (I think between 5 and 6 is one).
• Good place to work on shots
• Nice views on the backside of the course

Cons:
• $6 is flat ridiculous to park here. There aren't enough amenities to justify such a cost. Limit the number park rangers and lower the parking fees. Two is too many for such a small park.
• Can get crowded both in the parking lot and on the course
• Muddy just about everywhere including tee boxes
• People, trails, O/B fences with fun barbed wire are in play on a couple holes.
• While there were hole in the ground restrooms, we didn't see any water fountains or wash basins.

Tips
• The address of 5000 Pressley led me past the course about a mile on my GPS. Be on the lookout.
Random Thoughts:
There's really not much to say about this course, because for most of the holes you're really throwing back and forth across a wide open, gently rolling hillside. There are a few holes (6, 7, and 8 I believe) that are quite interesting as they run through the creek area and the shots are more technical in shape and also demand you pay attention to the landing area. It is too bad there aren't more holes like these. There is also one hole (10) that serves as this course's "Top of the World" shot with a nice view and fun throw. Beyond that I can't think of anything else remarkable about the course.
Bottom Line: This is a straight beginner course that I can't say I would recommend driving out of your way for, particularly considering the parking fee. While I really liked the creek holes, the rest of the holes are basically the same. I'd advise scooting on down the road to Stafford Lake.

Fun for all 
Pros: Well this is my home course, love the lay out, easy course to map out from tee to pin. Great for all levels of experience. holes 5, 7,and 10 are my favorite holes on this course. Open area, tees are straight on.
Cons:
There are a few tees that are really muddy and sloshy in the winter rainy season. So bring your waterproof shoes/boots. Other than that it's a great course.

Great Mid-Level Course
Pros: *Course wraps around the one of the highest points in the park, creating sweeping views of the valley below and backdrop of Sonoma Mtn. and vineyards.
*Different elevation changes make it a great course for the intermediate player.
*Seasonal creek adds element to hole 5 and possible hole 3, during the Winter months.
*Breezes from the advancing marine layer (fog) creates additional challenges on many of the open holes.
*Easy to follow layout with Hole 9 being a short hike back to parking lot, while Hole 18 ends at parking lot.
*Round times can play fairly short, so a round can play fairly fast.
*OB fence line comes into play on holes 8, 12, 14 & 15.

Cons: *90% of holes are open.
*Possible equestrian and hiker issues.
*Very dry in summer so very high fire danger.
*Ticks can be a problem, be sure to check when finished with round, especially in Spring when grass is green and tall.

Other Thoughts: This course took 9 years to get put back in. It was first installed around 1982, but was pulled because of environmental concerns when the park's general plan was not followed. The new course now follows the original plan and thus the reason why other areas of park aren't used.

Minimal Variance 
Pros:
Very easy-to-follow course, even w/o a map - can see the current basket from current tee, except for #7 (right turn past bushes), and can usually find the next tee by following a worn path away from the basket. A few benches. Nice, long views of neighbouring countryside, including a vineyard.

Cons:
$6 to enter. At times plays along walking trails. Single tee (gravel)/basket. Little variation.

Other Thoughts:
This course plays in a counter-clockwise fashion around a very gently sloping hill. Most shots have minimal elevation change - about four up, two down - and these changes aren't overly dramatic. Except for a moderate right-turn on #7, and a similar left-turn on #8, all holes play pretty much straight on. Baskets and flightpaths, for the most part, are wide open. Holes range in distance from just over 200' to just under 400', with 2/3rds of them being in the 230-300' range, and only a couple over 350'. What this leaves you with is a course very suitable for beginners/intermediates to develop upon, and a birdie fest venue for more advanced players.
A couple of tips: After finishing #7, make a hard left to find tee #8. The constant steady breeze makes discs fly a bit more understable, and makes putting a bit more difficult.

This review was updated on 7/25/2009
Pros: The one and only pro that I can think of for this course is it is great for the beginner disc golfer. It is very open and very short and easy to play for that level of player. Scenery is beautiful. Course is in the middle of wine country and vineyards can be seen all around while playing. Great picture opportunities. Tee pads are ground slate/dirt.
Cons: Any level of player above beginner will probably not enjoy this course as it is not challenging enough. Way to open and way to short. $6 dollars to park and play is kind of tough if it was the only course for you to play. Absolutely NO SHADE and NO WATER. Best to play this course in the cooler months as the sun is brutal especially bouncing off of all the dead straw grass.
Other Thoughts: If your driving through wine country and have an itch to play you can scratch it here.

Pros: it is a nice park with many nice views of the valley, easy to follow course
Cons: the tees are a little loose and kinda small, the wind can bee pretty strong, and some alternate pin positions would break it up. $6 to park is a little high,no shade to speak of, no water of any kind
Other Thoughts: why didn't it go through the other side of the park where there are more trees and interesting features to utilize as obsticales
