Pros:
It's an easily accessible course, in a mixed-use park. There's a large course map by the parking lot, all holes have their own tee signs, and all tees are easy to find.
Most holes are safe throws, when thrown properly, and difficult to lose a disc on.

Cons:
The City of Brookings has entered into a MAJOR tree and undergrowth clearing program because it is Azalea Park, not Douglas Fir Park. However, this necessary clearing was done without consulting the disc golfers who use this course and, with the best of intentions, the City has decreased the difficulty of the course drastically.
Other Thoughts:
This park was a mixture of beginning-level and seriously intermediate level holes. Because of the decrease in difficulty, there are only beginning and easy intermediate holes. Yes, a badly thrown disc can get lost on #6 and #7 but both baskets have been completely opened up so there is no challenge to an upshot if you need it.
I thought a 3.0 rating was appropriate until last Fall, now I think 2.0 is better.
