Beginner Friendly 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 25, 2012 Played the course:once

Pros:

Extremely clean, newer park. Nice large sized concrete tee pads. Well mowed, defined fairways. Newer baskets in excellent condition. Simple navigation, no map needed. Slightly below average distances with most holes just under the 300 foot mark.

Cons:

No tee signs. Most holes very similar. The only trouble you can get in is the high weeds off the fairway. We played in early fall and weeds were fairly sparse. I imagine in late spring, early summer could be tougher to find discs.

Other Thoughts:

Nice park with an outstanding play area for kids. Appears brand new. Navigation was simple after finding hole #1. To get to hole #1, park in lot and follow walking trail at rear of lot toward the right. Hole #1 about 500 yards on your left.

Course in a field 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 29, 2012 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

The baskets and tee pads were in great condition and were good to use. None of the holes were ridiculously short. On a few holes you could really let it fly. Some of the hole placements were cool and there was some elevation change that was fun.

Cons:

Most of the holes were just straight, and there were basically no woods at all. There were no signs. (but easy to navigate).

Other Thoughts:

They have a ton of land and some woods on the edge of the course to maybe expand. The rough is weird and is sometimes easy to find your disc in the tall grass and then other times it is an issue. It is a nice 9 hole course that you can play quickly if you like disc golf. Do not make more than a 15 minute drive for it though.
