Nice Park style course

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Apr 3, 2022 Played the course:once

Pros:

You're not going to get beat up much by rough
Long enough with enough hazards to be challenging but without being too severe.
Nice tees and some fun lines you have to try to make
Baskets are in excellent shape
The view!
Hilly in parts, but nothing too strenuous. It's all park style grass, well taken care of.

Cons:

Some of the holes are bordered by somewhat busy roads or parking lots
One tee, one basket, every hole.
It can be very very windy next to the lake, almost unplayable at times.
The last 4 holes are kind of on top of each other, all sharing one field. 15 is a fun island hole with a fortress barricade, but the last 3 holes are sort of just crammed in there with not a lot of excitement.

Other Thoughts:

It's a very pleasant recreational course that someone really good would have no problem beating up. I'm not a huge fan of 490-yard par 3 holes, but it is downhill at least. The Island hole was probably the most fun, I like islands with a raised barrier around them. At 267 feet, slightly uphill, it's a pretty challenging heave to get it in there. #1 is kind of a bad hole, a severe sidehill par 3 crammed in between a parking lot and a street, but after that the course quickly gets better. 2-16 is pretty enjoyable. 17 and 18 are sort of a bland finish, both holes sort of shoehorned into a field
