Pros:
- With a lot of trees, makes for a challenging run
- Relatively easy to find end/beginning of holes.
- Beautiful setting with plenty of shade.
- Only water hazard is Hole 3 and it's shallow enough to retrieve any discs [granted they float]
Cons:
- Plays near playground equipment and picnicking , keep an eye out for children
- Nearby bathroom facilities are kind of dirty
- Hole #3 plays right of a side of the lake
- It's a bit out of the way from the main highway [161]
Other Thoughts:
I heard a bit of criticism for this place but it's quite frankly one of my favorites at the moment. I scored my first eagle on Hole #1 and was ecstatic. With all of the trees, it can be frustration and make it difficult to make a straight shot. It's a great opportunity to practice your hyzers and anhyzers, not much use for tomahawks. Could see the potential of the area being congested if there was a party, picnic/barbecue or other staged events. This course is a bit out of the way, but in my opinion totally worth it if you're in the Carlyle area for camping, swimming or any other reason.
