Not bad, short course 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Apr 7, 2017 Played the course:once

Pros:

The course is on a nice property, with decent parking lot and portable bathroom at the lot. There are 18 holes. The first 5 holes are short woods holes, the rest is more open with some small elevation changes and varying shots required. Hole 9 was a memorable tee shot being about 400 ft downhill with the basket fading off to the right.

Once you actually find hole 1, good signage and concrete tee boxes.

Cons:

This course is very short; most of my tee shots were mids and putters. The signage is good from hole to hole (and there are next tee arrows on the signs), but I had a little trouble finding the right parking lot, and then finding hole 1. There are directions in the DGCR, but I got distracted by a stray basket off to the left when you enter near the lot; presumably a practice basket. The tee pads are on the shorter side, limiting an adequate run up. I played in spring after some rainfall, and the course was very very muddy and drainage on the course was an issue (even in the open portions). Course flows from basket to next tee pretty good, with just a minor walk to and from the lot. Layout does have holes close together with minor overlap; if there were multiple groups of golfers, stray shots could be a safety issue.

Other Thoughts:

All in all, a nice short course. Would love to see more wooded holes, but for the property its used pretty well. As mentioned above, I liked hole 9 where I was able to air out a couple throws after some shorter tee shots.

Pitch and Putt 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 3, 2015 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

The first 4 holes are great gentle putter lines that require some precision to birdie.

Nice baskets.

Cons:

Teepads are a bit small and gravel. Not very well maintained, most teepads had big dips in them where people had planted their release foot. Some pads had a little mini rubber pad at the end which prevented that.

The signage was remarkably confusing for such a small course. 3 times I threw at the wrong basket on my first round.

Holes 5-15 were mostly boring open field shots. Only about 3 of them actually require a driver. Mostly putter shots an some mid ranges. Even the par 4's were very easy. I got 2 eagles on my 2nd round..

Many of the holes are really close to houses, that will probably cause issues if the course gets really popular as nobody wants degenerate disc golfers in their back yard.

Other Thoughts:

Good course to work on putter drives and up shots. It's basically miniature golf, but without the excitement of a windmill hole.
