Incredibly fun 18 with multiple layouts 2+ years

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Jan 10, 2021 Played the course:once

Pros:

I had a great time playing at this course. After reading some of the reviews I thought it could be a flat, boring course, but though it is mainly flat it's anything but boring.

It's on the verge of what I would consider a bomber course with a couple of holes in the 500-650 range in some pin positions and a 900ft par 5, the it also has short, technical tunnel shots, some creeks and marshy areas and a couple of holes with big berms like 1 and 16 that make for interesting lines.

They have benches and really nice signs on every hole with a ring on the pin placement so you can further get your bearings.

Great use of what water there is and the various tree lines.

Tee pads are plenty big for your non-James Conrad players and for my run up were always enough.

Baskets are red banded Innova baskets and the red is a unique touch, very visible on the longer holes.

From the short tees it becomes more manageable for the newer players and takes many of the tight tree gaps out of play. If I was only judging the short tees I would rate it lower but from the longs it's exactly the type of course I like to play.

Plenty of distance, interesting lines, and the basics are done very well.

Accessible restrooms and plenty of parking for both disc golf and the general park goers.

Cons:

A good bit of standing water. It's largely in a flood plane due to proximity to the river, so there were a lot of wet spots even though it hadn't rained in a few days.

Elevation is minimal and only plays on a few holes.

There are a few spots where an errant throw(usually has to be quite bad) would be near a walking path or parking area.

Other Thoughts:

Overall when I describe what I like in a course this has almost all of it. The only thing lacking is elevation changes. Sort of feels like you took Hobbs Farm and ran it over with a steamroller. It's nearly as good as that as well. The length and varied lines make it a great play.

I enjoyed it greatly and will happily play again. I also got my first ace of 2021 on hole 11, so that was cool as well!

Pros:

Great signage
Concrete tee pads
Quality baskets
Blue tees are challenging and fun
A course where you can chuck some bombs
Tournament level course
Tons of space
Plenty of parking

Cons:

Because the course is built on a flood plain, it can take a while to dry out after rain

Other Thoughts:

Would be nice to have another trash can or two somewhere out on the course.

What are you looking for in a course? 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 17, 2020 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Gorgeous park with nice amenities (signage and tee pads included)

Two sets of pads per hole and baskets to various pin positions

Well maintained; I have been out on the course multiple times where the county was mowing or otherwise doing maintenance.

Cons:

Some holes seem like fillers. Same shot over and over

Lost disc potential if you don't watch it. Tall grass in the open field make it easy to lose depth perception. I have found 4-5 discs in the last week just walking in the 'fairway'. Have also spent more time than I would like to admit looking for shots that were in the 'fairway.'

Quite a bit of foot traffic. Some walkers are not aware of what DG is or that they are walking through a hole...or picnicking on one.

Other Thoughts:

First some background. I am the best 900 rated doubles partner there is, was or ever will be. I have been playing for 10 years, but have only recently started getting back into it. The forehand and backhand distance are there, but I have no clue where the disc is going to go. I need lots of practice.

This course is less than 15 minutes from my house, yet, I just started getting rounds on it. It's exactly what I was looking for in a course, back in the day, and I am super grateful that it's so close. I can work on any and every shot out there while still playing golf. Holes 1-12 are great in my opinion. 13,14,15 are fillers, but I still practice different discs at different angles. I have only played 16 in the left position, and if it never moves, I would be just fine. It's a cool hole that has sneaky elevation with a low ceiling. 17 is pretty straight forward, and I think could turn into one of my favorite holes to practice on. 18 is an underwhelming end to a decent back 9. A natural hazard, (not OB, just for the sake of OB) to bring some danger into play would be a great way to keep the end of a tournament interesting.

The last takeaway I have is that there is even more potential to this course to get better. I'm curious how some tree growth will affect lines in the future.

Gonna keep it short and sweet 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 18, 2019 Played the course:once

Pros:

Beautiful scenery, well designed, nice bridges where needed over 'seasonal' criks.
Good signage and next tee posts are abundant and useful.
Lots of open holes but good use of the tree lines and natural ridges.
Hole 2 has a cool little straw burm with a gully in it, interesting way to make a 'sand trap' on a disc course. I loved it!
Well mowed and bathrooms are super swanky!
Hole 17 the Hooch finally comes into play, be careful and stay right!

Cons:

Needs benches and trash cans but I assume those are to come soon as this course literally just opened, so this Con will probably be removed shortly.
Hard to complain about anything here, if you don't like a little marshy wetland area or it is too "flat and open" for you, then you are entitled to your opinion but really, just go play somewhere else!

Other Thoughts:

Once trash cans and a couple benches are put out there, this will easily be a 4.5+ in my opinion.
The only real point of confusion we found was hole 4, being that it is over 900 feet it was hard to find direction and we ended up throwing to 10s basket, then 6s, then back to 4. Just pay attention at this one point and also mind a giant bee hive in the tree next to the ladies' tee for 4 and you should have a great round!
