Abandoned course in a beautiful park. 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 1, 2017 Played the course:once

Pros:

Good use of elevation
Variety of short and long shots
Beautiful park, particularly the views from 7. Turn around while you're walking up the fairway and get treated to a beautiful view of Massachusetts.
Park was not heavily used.

Cons:

No tee pads, tee locations were marked by 0-2 green posts, some of which have rotted and fallen over.
Single-chain baskets are overgrown. There's about 10' of clear green around the baskets, but grasses, weeds and bushes grow right up through the bottom of the cage.
Most fairways are 8-10 feet wide, mowed into areas of grass and weeds which grow 3 feet high in some areas.
There's a sign at the beginning of the course, but no signs afterwards, take a picture now and good luck hunting.

Other Thoughts:

Mow those fairways 20-30' wide, keep the weeds away from the baskets in a 30' radius, and you've now got a decent course that's accessible to beginners and casual players.

It would really benefit from permanent signs, newer baskets and concrete tees.
