 A real gem of the lowcountry

Pros: Discatcher baskets in like good condition. Large course map at #1 and mailbox with scorecards that have course map on the back of them. Course is well maintained and mowed very regularly by the park crew. Signage is good for hole information and "Next Tee" signs. Tees have been improved again and 20 out of 36 now sport "Fly Pads" rubber tee pads with more to come in Spring 2009. Benches at most if not all holes. Course flows well with it starting and ending at the same point. Fairways are well defined and do not cross. Course is mostly flat with slight grades. Friendly, helpful local club with weekly scheduled bag tag/open and random doubles play.
Cons: The site doesn't allow for a lot of holes with wide open fairways, so for people who like more wide open areas this might be a con. While there are puddles around the first and last three holes during and after a hard rain, I played in a steady rain yesterday and got done with dry socks, so you can avoid the problem unless it's been raiding a solid week then #14 and #16 are fairly wet with standing water.
Other Thoughts: Third set of tees added by course designer on 4/1, they are dirt marked with stakes but will be upgraded as funds allow.

There are blue tees to play from if you want longer play on all holes. People used to a course planted in a wide open field with no trees may consider this a "tight" or technical course, but it is definitely not a "trail through the woods with baskets" The course is not usually crowded, but there will be other people playing it most of the time and can be busy Saturday mornings.

Being able to throw a variety of shots will help you score well here, there are a variety of left and right curving/dogleg holes. Parking is abundant and well lit. The new pavilion restroom facilities are very nice, but locked after hours. There are some older bathrooms that I think stay open but not in great shape.

You will need some control in the woods or you'll be playing pinball with the trees if you get out of the fairway. If you like wide open courses or don't have a variety of shots to use this might not be the course for you.

Don't let the average recorded round of 70 scare you off, most of the rounds recorded were by a really bad novice player (me!) Fair warning this is my home course.

Pros: Great course, very challenging but a lot of effort has been put in to make sure it is not impossible. Requires players to balance risk vs. safe shots. Well taken care of. Multiple tees for different experience levels. Only two holes really threaten your disc with water and it can be easily avoided with smart shots.
Cons: First and last couple holes under water after storms.
Other Thoughts: Great course, would love to play here any day. Be ready for a challenge.

 A Must Play Course

Pros: Despite being natural tees, most of them had colored carpeting in place which gave great footing.

The baskets themselves were in impeccable shape.

The course design is great. Long throwers cannot just rely on their arms to make par.

Each tee has a very beautiful marker with OB and pin placement information.

Ditches had timbers in place to make crossing over easier.

Cons: Despite the signage, a number of the tees were difficult to find.

The only restroom facilities are well past the first tee, near the parking lot.

 Challenging Course

Pros: Three teepads per hole with 5 possible layouts
(white,red,blue,black,gold). Championship caliber holes with a good mix of open and tight shots. Good flow and easy to navigate. "A" game required to hit lines on wooded holes. Well maintained course with loyal club members. I think the Black layout offers most variety of shots. Course is easy to get to, right off I-95.
Cons: I can't talk too much smack about my home course. Mosquitos are brutal at certain times of year. Some players confused by multiple teepad layouts...just pick one and play them! I particularly like the Black layout.
Other Thoughts: You can play Tom Triplett and The Sarge in a day! Both right off I-95.

Pros: Well marked and challenging course with tight fairways in the woods. Great variation in distance from tee to basket.
Cons: Grass tees. Hard to put in words, but the course just didn't wow me.
Other Thoughts: I lost my favorite disc on #4 in the lake. Not the course's fault though.
