Pros:
-- Long and short tees on each hole that offer very different looks, major distance variation and very different levels of challenge, although the short tees are not nearly as well done as the long tees. Even though you are in a major metro area, and hole 1 tees from near a busy road, once you get out on the course, you feel as if you are in the middle of nowhere.
-- Good land with open areas, wooded areas, and elevation, all well used.
-- Concrete tees, Houck signage, and navigational aids throughout. Only hole 2 was confusing (see cons).
-- Nice variety of hole lengths on the long tees, from ace runs to legit two-shot holes
-- Course map at hole 1 and practice basket.

Cons:
-- No parking. When you get to the course, you are on a busy road without even the possibility of street parking. Your best bet is the back side of the shopping center on the corner of Parmer Lane and Lakeline Boulevard. That leaves quite a long walk to No. 1.
-- No restrooms or water.
-- Red tees sometimes feel like an afterthought and don't go together as a cohesive course in the way the blue tees do. Two holes are shorter than 150 feet (No. 3 is 84 feet), so just about any 10 year old should expect to make no worse than par. However, five red holes are longer than 350 feet with plenty of obstacles, so that child/beginner who enjoyed the two short holes is piling up the strokes and frustration on the long holes.
-- On hole 2, both tees are in the same direction, so finding the correct tee took some time.

Other Thoughts:
-- Tee signs look great and have the distance and map for both tee pads. However, the signs are identical, so it can be difficult to tell whether you are at the red or blue tee. The hole number has a blue background, so you might think that means you are at the blue tee. Nope. Both red and blue tee signs have a blue background for the hole number.

Pros:
Great signs both short and long tee boxes. Great boxes and baskets. Variety of shots. Almost all shots have some difficulty and tree trouble. If you from the long tee boxes this will be a challenging course for most.
Cons:
Even during the weekday this was super crowded and slow.
Other Thoughts:
Park as soon as you enter the back of the strip area and stay up on the sidewalk to walk to #1
