Practice Course 
Pros: This course is good for ace runs, beginners and practicing your putting & approach shots. The man made obstacles made getting to a few holes a bit more challenging. Getting from each basket to the next tee pad was fairly easy to do with out a map with the exception of basket 5 to pad 6. Like most other people said there is no chance to loose a disc here. Looks like some crazy prairie dogs there because some of the asphalt paved paths had been burrowed through by them... The baskets are nice and new and seem to be in good condition. Concrete tee pads improve this course to be something worth playing if you are in the area.
Cons: There is a lot of graffiti on this course. The hole markers seem to be the bragging spot for all the course aces. This even carried over to one tee pad. It seems like this course was an afterthough for the space it is in. This course is not on the list of courses to hit in Denver. I think most people that play it and maintain it know this fact, but not every course is champsionship.
Other Thoughts: This course can be a good warm up if you are coming from the west side of Denver headed down C-470 to Lighthouse.

Pros: Easy course to play with no way of losing a disc. The baskets and tee pads are in good condition. There are some man-made obstacles around some of the baskets to add a little extra challenge. (see photos) I had a map with me so it was very easy to see which way I needed to be throwing. The course starts and end by the parking lot and minimal walking between holes.
Cons: The tee sighs consists of an six foot tall wood 4x4 with a number on it. Nothing too challenging and not too eye catching. All dirt all year long and watch out for those prairie dog holes.
Other Thoughts: Overall I do feel that this is a decent course to stop by and play a round at. I played it twice for 18 holes and it took no time at all.

Pros: Easy course. Good for practice or trying out that new fairway driver. No Distance drivers needed. Nice baskets. Easy to navigate.
Cons: Short. Yes there are prairie dogs everywhere. The smell is from the horse stables down the road.
Other Thoughts: Nice view. Easy to get to. Not much traffic on the course. Good for beginners.

Prairie Dogs!
Pros: This course has a nice open feel and very little elevation, so it's easy on the legs. You can drive every basket here, if your aim is on, you'll birdie every hole. There are prairie dogs everywhere, which makes for an amusing round.
Cons: There are prairie dogs everywhere! Yeah well they're funny but they smell bad! And if you're a serious player you won't like their heckling.
Other Thoughts: Great Beginner Course, no chance of loosing a disc here, maybe down a dog hole, so watch your ankles!! Easy to find, but I bet it's windy there most days, pretty wide open.

Quick and Easy
Pros: All holes easily reachable, good for beginners, good course to practice new shots/discs on, pretty straightforward layout for the most part, no water hazards or risk of losing discs, on site bathroom and close parking (right on hole 1)
Cons: Very easy, can be very, very crouded with large groups during peak hours, not very much variety, lots of ground hog holes.
Other Thoughts: I go to this course to practice putting and a variety of shots. There are so many more challenging, fun courses in the area this course is very easy to ignore (Any disc golf course is worth playing in my opinion though)

Pros:
Plays fast with little to no chance of losing a disc. Nice concrete tee boxes and baskets in good condition. Onsite porta-potties are present. Seems like minimal chance of pedestrian interference. A couple efforts have been made to add man-made obstacles to increase the difficulty of the course.

Cons:
Poor signage, most holes have just a simple wooden post that may or may not have the hole number on it, and no distances. Not very interesting visually or from a playability perspective either. Many prairie dog holes, so watch where your step.

Other Thoughts:
This is a very easy course to play and provides little challenge for a player with any experience. There isn't a hole on which a semi-seasoned player should ever take more than a '3'.
My first time through (without a map) I played to basket #6 from tee #8 as that seemed to be the logical flow of the course. You're supposed to follow the walking path from basket #5 to tee #6.
If you want to get a fast round played then Schaefer will suffice, but there are much better courses in the area.

Great beginner course 
Pros: Easy to find tees. Great course for your dog. Pretty view of the mountains to your west. Easy to find the first tee (right next to the parking lot).
Cons: Short distances to the baskets. Most of the drives are pretty straight with little or no obstructions. Not much elevation changes. It only has 9 holes.
Other Thoughts: Would be nice to have some signs with marked distances. Overall an ok course.

Great short course
Pros: Quick, short course. Excellent place to practice mid-range and putting shots. Easy to birdie many of the holes.
Cons: Inhabited by a few prairie dog towns, in a wind-prone location.
Other Thoughts: Great for a quick 9 - a pair can run the course in less than 30 min. What the course lacks in distance, it more than makes up for in a variety of obstacle placements and soon to be interesting holes.
