Pros:
- Lots of interesting elevation changes.
- Fun tonal targets on the front 9 (can probably hear a made putt from hundreds of meters away!)

Cons:
- Extremely tough to let any longer drives rip without a spotter, as there are ample opportunities to lose a disc on this course.
- Worn foot paths give clues as to next tee (or basket) locations, but this course more than most I've played, needs "next tee" signage.
- Maintenance issues seem to be a chronic challenge, as 2-3 of the tees will barely be playable in a few years (with tree growth).
- Poor parking accommodations (side of the road, by the gate).

Other Thoughts:
I'd LOVE to give this course a ~3.5 or so for a rating! It certainly has the potential, on an excellent piece of land. But it's awfully rough/rugged for your typical DGer. And if folks are playing it alone? You could spend literally hours searching for discs...while hitting your fairways! I assume the deal with the land owner is for use "as-is." Which severely limits what can be done related to maintenance. But several Saturdays per year with a crew of 7-8+ volunteers could turn this course into a real jewel on the island.
