No power needed but great for woods practice 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Dec 9, 2021 Played the course:once

Pros:

Cute little nine-holer behind a brewery which (by the way) serves some wonderful lunch and has a large selection of straight beer and fruit beers.

The little course only requires you to have putters and possibly a mid-range or two. It's a mini woods course. So if you struggle in the woods, want to work out strategy, and live nearby (or are passing through), it would make sense to work out some of your strategy here on something short enough where you don't really need any power but you can develop touch.

The super-narrow fairways in the woods make you think. Take the same technique to a larger woods course and throw (likely) a stronger disc to achieve similar results.

Mediocre players (such as myself) can score par most all the time. People with real skills probably are going to get a number of birdie aces (every hole is par 2).

Cons:

Well, it is so short that it certainly is not a destination course by itself. It's a warm-up or cool-down course.

Other Thoughts:

Definitely need to spend time in the brewery for a meal before or after play. Very delicious food and varied drink. Non-alcoholic available. There is a performance stage outdoors and picnic tables as well as tables on the patio (most in a tent to deal with the COVID situation).

It appears you might can play holes 1-3 at night. There are strings of lights up in the trees.

The course would be great for beginners. I think it would be very encouraging to said who probably are easily and quickly making par. There is also a practice basket area with 3-4 baskets where one can simply warm up or play a team challenge.
