Pros:
I had to chance to play Hillcrest Farms on Prince Edward Island last year, but didn't even know of the existence of Huck It at the time. This year I made sure to play them both, which resulted in 36 holes of outstanding disc golf.
This course offers an outstanding variety of hole lengths, shapes, and elevations, with a small river running through many of the holes. The hole lengths range from 212' out to 544' so while there isn't really a long par 5 on the course, there is plenty of variation.
More than hole lengths, the shapes and elevations of the holes stand out for me. Each hole offered something different with tunnels, gentle bends, and doglegs in both directions. On top of fairway shape there was significant uphill and downhill on many holes, with several playing across the small river for a downhill/uphill hole.
There are plenty of left-to-right holes that favor a RHFH or a RHBH turnover, with accuracy being more important than distance. Staying in the fairway is the only way to be assured of a reasonable line to the basket.
Hole 2 is a great example of the overall course. A 501 foot par 5 that requires an accurate 250' throw to the landing zone, and then another to the pin. Having 500 feet of power gives you zero advantage on this hole, as you can't access the basket from the tee.
Hole 14 is the signature hole on the course. A 544' par 4 that starts straight and level, then doglegs left and downhill toward the river. It crosses the river and the basket is on a huge raised platform of logs. A complex and challenging hole.
Excellent concrete tee pads for each hole, along with an informative sign with a clear hole diagram. White Veteran baskets catch great and show up well. Bench and both trash and recycling containers completed the excellent course structure.
Cons:
The only map provided is on a business card. While it gives a general idea of course flow it is not really up to the standard that I would expect for a pay-to-play course.
There seemed to be only a single set of tees for most of the course. Hole 2 had a shorter red tee that eliminated the dogleg, but that is the only hole that I recall seeing a second tee on. I may have overlooked a couple, but most of the other holes showed the red/blue position being the same.
Hole 7 was my least favorite as it uses a wheat field to define the left edge of the fairway. Fading into the waist-high field made for difficult disc finding.
Other Thoughts:
It is too bad that most folks will never be able to play this course. Just getting to PEI is a long drive from just about anywhere, and the crossing is either a $47 toll bridge or an even more expensive ferry.
That being said, it is a beautiful place to play disc golf, and with two, premium 18 hole course within 30 minutes of each other it is well worth the trip.
