Pro level course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 18, 2017 Played the course:once

Pros:

This course had amazing variety and challenge. You'll need every shot in the bag due to short technical wooded shots, open shots, long par4s needing distance and accuracy, and tunnel shots. Most of the holes have a clean design. Advanced/open players will feel pushed while casual players won't be too overwhelmed. I wouldn't put too much stock in the reviews that claim some holes are "too hard" (Hole 11 is an amazing par 4) Some holes are hard but you won't find them impossible and you won't worry about losing your disc in dense rough. True par is 58/59.

Cons:

The only major con was the tee signs. They do give distance but they don't show a map of the hole. I also found it very funny that they labeled the pin locations as Small, Medium, Large...like its Burger King or something. Also, got a chuckle on the insecure hole pars. The signs say "Par 4, 5" like they can't decide.

Also found the end a little anti-climactic. Holes 13,15,18 are kind of bland.

Other Thoughts:

It lacks any signature holes but embodies what a course should be: challenging, diverse, clean.

A Hidden Gem 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Feb 16, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

-I just want to start out by saying I was thoroughly impressed by this course. The scenery, the hole design, the flow of the course everything just really came together nicely.
-As I said, the hole design here was really solid. I think it somewhat favors Left-hand backhand or Right-hand forehand, but there was quite a bit of variety in hole types and lengths. It was kind of a tale of two nines with the front nine being pretty wooded and the back nine being somewhat wooded, but with quite a bit of open space to work your shot.
-I thought this was really beautiful course with the pond, streams and densely wooded pine forests.
-Despite being right off GA-92, it felt secluded and private. I was the only player on the course, but I did play on a weekday morning so that is probably not a true indication of how busy the course is.
-The signs here are excellent. I thought the engravings on the bridges were also a nice touch. Next tee signs and arrows were strategically place and navigation was fairly simple.

Cons:

-The biggest con for this course is that there was quite a bit of flooding and mud on just about every hole and based on the lay of the land this is probably the case most of the year. But with a name like, "Boundary Waters Park" what did you expect?
-I saw a few extra pin placements, but I wish there was a second set of tees to make your experience more customizable.
-Despite my immense enjoyment with this course and the various hole shapes and designs there is somewhat of a repetitive feel to the course,

Other Thoughts:

Seriously, this course was WET. Pretty much every hole had standing water and mud on it which dampened the experience a bit, but I still thoroughly enjoyed this course. I'm a little surprised that the overall rating of this course isn't higher, but I think it will come as the course garners more reviews. If you're traveling through or in the neighborhood make a point to play this course!
