Multiple tees make it 18 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 1, 2009 Played the course:once

Pros:

Nice facilities and easy to find. There were some local there for their weekly that were more than willing to talk about the course.

Cons:

Holes 3 and 4 double back on each other depending on the pin placement. Not horrible but could have been designed a little differently.

God Map 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jan 3, 2009 Played the course:once

Pros:

Although just 9 holes, there are multiple tee and pin placements. Nice layout around lake, and the map on hole one was a welcome sight for a traveling player to get an idea on the layout. Mowed grass (not typical for many area courses) in open and still some typical tighter Flordia holes.

Cons:

Not many, fun course to play

Not Worth the Time and Lost Discs 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Dec 29, 2008 Played the course:once

Pros:

Not much, but you are playing disc golf. Nine hole course with plenty of challenge, offset by huge potential for lost discs. Some holes are OK, narrow, and certainly chalenging, but the potential to lose discs here is simply too great.

Cons:

Only nine holes. Not well marked. Not in good shape. Backs up to neighborhood fence on a few holes. Potential to end up over the fence. Water everywhere on this course. The course essentially winds around a lake which is always to your right. If the lake is not in play, then you have drainage ditches in play - who knows what's in those bodies of water. Hole 7 is right over the lake to a basket perched on the edge of the lake. I skipped it. Also had to skip hole 6 (which looked fairly benign), utility trucks were parked in the fairway. Hole 8 looked benign too, until the wind took my disc rght into the lake. I was always throwing tentative here for fear of losing discs. I won't go back.

Other Thoughts:

I was visiting my father in Ft. Myers. This looked the best of all the courses around, so pickings must be pretty slim in SW Florida.

Worth a visit 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Feb 8, 2000 Played the course:once

Pros:

Very good use of a very small piece of property. Attractive and well-maintained. The holes have good variety and challenge. Most of the holes are on the tighter side and favor accurate golfers that can shape shots well. Friendly locals.

Cons:

It is possible to lose plastic in the schule and water in a couple places.

Other Thoughts:

I understand that this course is now 18 holes. I have not played the new holes. This review applies to the original layout.

Don't be a dirty discer. Leave the course cleaner than you found it!
