Pros: Arakelian Park itself is well groomed and a pleasant place to play. The tee pads and baskets are in good condition. The course plays well as a recreational course due to its very short length. There generally aren't too many people around which does allow for unhindered play, except for the first three holes of the course. The openness of the park, slight changes in topography, and winds make for interesting safari options.

Cons: Holes 1 and 2 are nearly unplayable if there are children around the playground. The baskets for holes 1 and 2 are no more than forty feet from each other, and the tee pad for hole 3 sits in the fairway for hole 2. The tee pads for holes 5, 7, and 8 are all slanted and provide for difficult footing when making a throw. Hole 5 plays at the west end of the course and can be a headache for new players whose discs may hyzer into the backyards of neighboring homes. There are a few holes where tables don't sit far from baskets, making some throws nerve racking. The biggest knock on this course is a poorly conceived layout leading to safety issues.

Other Thoughts: The lack of space in the park limits the ability to have a truly interesting course for all skill levels. If you are a more advanced player and in the area it's worth checking out just because it does provide for some good short game practice. Hole 7 is an enjoyable hole, as is hole 9 in my opinion. Unfortunately, the layout issues make this a frustrating course a good amount of the time.

Pros: - mach 3 pins
- tee signs are there
- cement tee boxes

Cons: - By a park with kids
- no difficulty all open grass shots

Other Thoughts: Its a little 9 holer with no much difficulty. I usually shoot an -8 to -9 out of 9 holes. if i par a hole i get pretty upset lol. Its a maintained park kinda in the ghetto but good to practice up shots and putting on.

Pros: -Well manicured park (saw a guy on a huge riding mower and another with a weed wacker while playing)
-Nice concrete tee pads
-Nine new DGA baskets
-Nice DGA tee signs
-Practice basket
-Decent distance on 6, 7 & 9

Cons: -Crossing fairways (on a 90ft hole? Really?)
-Bad flow, long walk from basket 5 to tee 6 comes to mind
-Hole 1 plays awefully close to a childrens playground
-Hole 6 is 25ft past one of the only picnic tables in the park
-Hole 8's tee is 20ft in front of basket 7

Other Thoughts: A well manicured park like this could be home for a decent course but this isn't it. Uninspired course design kills any hope of that (and hopefully nobody at the park). As with any park like this safari options are easily more creative but I don't believe in giving any points for that.
