If you are following my reviews, you know that I love a parkland course, and this is a lovely parkland course. It is not fancy, but it's very well-maintained. The course sits on a large "island" park surrounded by houses on all 4 sides. There are 9 baskets with the B9 tee pads longer or in a different direction from the F9 tee pads. There is a nice variety to be such a relatively small course.

The large green space that the course sits in is very slightly sloped (hole 1/10 at the bottom). This means you have roughly as many uphill shots as downhill ones, and it's nice that the latter come last. Forest Hills is not as flat of a course as it looks in pictures and as it appears in-person on first sight.

I like that hole 1/10 through 3/12 involve sizeable trees to get around or through; that nos. 4/13 are wide open but distinctly uphill with a large square of pavement to get over (OB? If so, plays like a pond); and then you go back into a parkland setting. There's a grove of trees you must get through/into for nos. 5/14; similar but distinctly out of the grove for nos. 6/15; around or away from the tennis courts for nos. 7/16; along the street edge again into another grove for nos. 8/17; similar for nos. 9/18.

That may sound redundant and possibly it is for a precision and long thrower. For those of us who throw shorter, we will appreciate the varied placement of the tee-to-basket and the possible choices of flight lines.

The park also has a playground and is itself much bigger than it looks on first sight. It is essentially green space in the middle of a residential area, not uncommon in the first-ring Victorian suburbs of major East Coast cities.

While there is a steady stream of people playing the course, it is not crowded. So you don't have to worry about being run over or rushed.

Because it is not crowded, you might feel a little uneasy here. Despite being a green space between four streets of houses, it feels rather isolated. The neighborhood is definitely a mixed bag. Some very decent-looking people and some not-so decent-looking people (equally) walking through.

There are no hole signs above grade to help you see where to go next, just these circular markers on the ground for the natural tees. These are not always easy to find. Some are missing. Some covered in dirt. You need your UDisc app running to help you pinpoint the tee of each hole (at least the first time you play). UPDATE: There are now concrete pads for each tee. Though mostly on the short side, they are very much welcomed, even, newish. While you still need UDisc to locate tees in relationship to one another, you can see them now very quickly.

Hole no. 14's tee is on a tiny island, and the throw is over one of the bordering streets, back into the park. This can be very dangerous. There's an enormous hedge on the island that further blinds your view of motor traffic coming from your left.

It's a very pleasant parkland course that is not intimidating. I managed to get a birdie on no. 8. Because it is parkland with large gaps between most of the trees, it is very encouraging.

The kind of course you want to play where you don't want to be overly challenged. Would make for a nice cool-down course if you are playing the tougher Triplett or another local course that is harder on the same day.

The Spanish moss in the various species of trees is dreamy, folks. As it is all over greater Savannah and other southeastern US coastal locales.

Pretty good use of a small, city park surrounded on all sides by residential housing. This is one of those courses you would like to live near to stop by for a quick 9 or just putting practice. The DISCatchers are all in pretty good shape and easy to spot in the park.
Lots of large, old growth trees throughout the park, many with low hanging spanish moss and even a few low hanging branches.
There are tee markers, with the local clubs name and logo, two marking the fronts of the natural tees.
There are 9 Baskets and two distinct tees for this "18" hole course, they provide different looks at the baskets in most cases.
There are a nice variety of hole layouts, using the available trees, tennis court fence and a few other obstacles. One of the more unusual pin position was for #8, underneath one of these low hanging branches that require a skip shot to get close or have a chance at an ace.

There are only a few other activities in the park, a playground and tennis courts that don't look like they have seen any activity in quite a while. With the houses completely surrounding this park, I can see it being popular with walkers and dog owners. This probably will lead to a lot of interactions with these other park users.
With the tees being natural, several are getting rutted and even exposing tree roots.
As you can probably guess with a small, city park course, not a lot of distance on this course. Not a pitch and putt for most players, but the 18 average less than 250' and the longest is just 336'.

This would be a good course to bring the family, or beginners. The baskets are in good shape, no tight tunnels or thick brush to hunt through for your discs. In fact, the disc loss potential is very low here. (Don't recall if the tennis courts are locked or not.) There are starting to be several courses in Savannah, so this is another one for newer players to start on before moving on to better courses like Tom Triplett.
The local club has put some good work into getting this course approved, laid out and installed but it is not the highly rated course from the initial review. I'm basing my rating on what I believe the course actually is and will let that lower the average ranking.

Fun! Course plays fast. Once I figured out where all the tees are located, I really appreciated the set up of the course. Plenty of obstacles to throw around giving the course some challenges, but there's also enough room to let some drives rip.

Most of the front 9's tees are located close to the park's outer perimeter sidewalk.

My only concern with the course is the possibility of interrupting neighbors and park goers. Hole 14 tees off over the road. I played by myself and really wished that I had a partner to look out for cars. If the shrubs around the tee pad are trimmed to ensure full visibility, then that'd greatly minimize the threat of throwing into a passing car. Hole 6 tees off really close to a pedestrian sidewalk and the roadside parking for the playground and tennis courts.
