Short, Tight Course with Terrain 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 5, 2021 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

- Ample parking
- Practice basket near Hole #1
- Clean restrooms near Hole #1
- Large paver tee pads
- Uncrowded
- Trees and branches require "touch throws" and finesse

Cons:

- No long fairways
- Fern plants on ground captures and hides discs
- Buggy in summer
- Muddy in fall
- Don't plan on additional "ground roll"

Other Thoughts:

Hole 2 (par 3) is uphill and steep. It was recently lengthened. It is now the longest hole and definitely plays like a par 4.

Hole 4 tee box requires an accurate throw through a tight tree gap to a basket in a meadow that is surrounded by a ring of logs. I assume the designer built this as an island.

Hole 6 was recently changed. It is no longer a dog-leg. But they need to install a sign pointing to hole 7.

Hole 8 is definitely a joy to play! The only down slope hole on the course, you attempt to float the disc through trees to a wide landing spot. Tree trunks and overhanging branches insure that is a challenge. If a clean throw is launched, birdie is guaranteed!

Overall, this course is great to play when the conditions are right. The trees keep the wind down. The short holes allow for two circuits meaning you'll complete 18 within 50 minutes. Stay away for a day or two after heavy rains. It gets muddy. Bring your non green discs (or use a spotter) to prevent spending time finding discs. The ferns gobble up stray throws. Most holes require bending, twisting throws (or luck) to weave between trees to land a disc near a birdie "give me". But par is still achievable as shot 2 is usually a pitch shot away.

Ridgefield Craft Brewing Company (3 blocks away) serves up cans to go and makes for a good club house to relax after the hilly work out!
