Good Course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 7, 2014 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Great new course. Very well thought out and planed by the designers. Young trees will make for good challenging hole in years to come. Good usage of the area with some interesting holes (island hole, and 2 on the side of the dam.)

Cons:

Little bit of a drive for me but well worth it for me and my friends to go play. Gets kinda swampy around some fairways and baskets after a rain.

Other Thoughts:

Good course for beginners as well as the more seasoned players. Will be much more challenging after trees get older (if they survive this drought) lol. Worth stoping and playing if your passing through or if you live in the area you gotta hit it at least once!

Just Opened 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Mar 13, 2013 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

*Nice concrete tees and Mach3 baskets.
*Shorter holes have OB or significant obstacles to challenge players
*Island hole is unique and nothing like it in this area
*Park benches and trash cans at holes 1,3,6,9&12.
*Concrete stairs on the dam that make it easier to walk up and down.
*Friendly local players
*Direct hit wind flags on select baskets that indicate how strong the wind is blowing 6,12,&18 mph.

Cons:

*Only 12 holes (so far)
*Holes 5 & 6 face each other so errant drives might cross fairways.
*Some ruts and rocks left on the course from the construction.
*Errant throws can cross walking path on dam so throwers should pay extra attention for pedestrians
*Grass area south of spillway can be kind of "swampy" but there are stone pathways that allow you to cross without getting into the mud/water

Other Thoughts:

I tried to be as unbiased as I could about this course since I helped design it. Its a brand new course with 12 holes but we hope to expand it to a full 18 hole course in the future. There are also discussions of putting in a second set of tee pads.
