Pros: Course was clean. Each hole had a pad to tee off. Trees make for a tight course, but limited underbrush meant discs thrown off course could still be found. All but two holes bank to the right. This can be tough on golfers with a left draw. You don't need to have a strong arm for this course - just be accurate. Shade was nice - stayed relatively cool on a hot day.
Cons: Every hole was rated Par 3 - which for the average golfer was not very practical. The sheer number of trees made it virtually impossible to get the distance needed for a birdie shot. My partner regularly shoots under par, but the tight course and bends to the right left him frustrated playing mostly bogie golf. A few holes were hard to locate thru the trees. Could have used a map.
Other Thoughts: The course has potential. I would play it again, but my partner hated it. The holes need to re-rated so the average golfer has at least a shot at a birdie now and again.

Pros: Cement tee pads on all 18 holes. Has a few challenging narrow gaps through woods which provide adequate challenge for intermediate players. Dense trees provide some shelter from surrounding winds. Hole 14 is probably the best hole, with slightly more room for RHBH shots and a pin placement near a small creek. Signs posted on most holes. Decent baskets, low crime area, free admission.
Cons: Holes are way too close together, especially on the front nine. Some holes are laid out such that you may shoot at the wrong basket (Holes 7/8/9). Many signs have inaccurate distances posted. A couple of really short holes under 150 feet are a bit mundane. Despite being a very short course in a small area, the next tee may be a fairly long distance from the pin and hard to find (Hole 11), but would not pose a problem after the first few times on the course. Almost every hole is wooded, with a general lack of variety among the various holes. In-your-face 'NO ALCOHOL' sign meant to intimidate in the finest Holland-area tradition (the nicest way to say this), so party-oriented activities are a big no-no, especially with people on nearby walking trails.
Other Thoughts: It's amazing that the Eastern Lake Michigan shoreline has so few courses, and the ones that do exist don't take advantage of the land available (Beast and Hickory Hills excepted). Skip this course unless you're a local looking to improve your mid-range game, or want to play in an enclosed space to avoid high winds. Basically a 2.0 course with extra points for the cement tee pads.

Pros: Nice equipment, tee pads are nice, overall nice park with other amenities.
Cons: crazy layout, crazy tight fairways. Its like they wanted to put a course out there, but wanted to cut zero trees. There is a lot of room there, they could have spread things out and utilized more of the open areas. I spent a lot of time trying to find next holes on many of the back holes.
Other Thoughts: Nice little, short course, could easily be improved with some clearing and lengthening of holes. Looks like there may be a clash with several other sporting events that use the course or near-by facilities, as well as the haunted forest that closes the course entirely in October. boooo
