Fun course for families and beginners 2+ years
Reviewed:
Played on:Jul 27, 2019
Played the course:once
Pros:
Good baskets and really nice tee signs.
Short, easy to follow course around small town park.
Mature trees for shot shaping and only one hole in the woods.
Not much chance of losing a disc, except on #5.

Cons:
Tees were marked, but some were uneven. Not a big deal since most of the holes were pretty short.
Several holes play near walking path, could be dangerous.
First few holes are near high use areas of the park. Unplayable during events.

Other Thoughts:
Really nice, small town park, short course, perfect for families and beginners. The Wilmington area really doesn't have a course like this, so it is a good addition.
All of the holes easy to see and mostly straight.
Most of the trees in the park are large, old growth with no underbrush around them. So they are large enough for shot shaping, but have no underbrush.
#5 does represent the only wooded hole with underbrush. Its a short downhiller, into a small ravine, nice change of pace midway through your round.
#2 was a fun hole, basket sits on a little rise, next to a guardian tree on some sandy ground. Then, #3 sits next to a little depression (dry when I was there) that would make the hole interesting if you play it as OB.
#6-9 are all pretty much the same hole, with a good amount of open space to throw your drives, you just have to shape them around the large trees.
Not too many people in the park the early morning I was there, so I got in some driving practice when I was done, throwing off the band stage right in the middle of the park. As I said above, if there is an event going on, several of the holes will be unplayable.
Overall, I nice little city park course, for the families and beginners to have fun with the game.

This course was installed by a gentlemen very passionate about the sport. I have no doubt he will continue to make good improvements. Nice to have another course close to Wilmington.
