Pros:
-small elevation changes throughout the course, about half utilize the elevation
-some mature trees, many small trees that were planted during course construction.
-Nice baskets (deep blue mach III's)
-Water hazards on 1, 7, 9 add to the play of this course
-Unique concrete bridge piling obstacle in play on hole 3 or 4
-course was well maintained at the time I played
-single use park (dg only), although there is a walking path above the bowl (see Other Thoughts)
-Good hole length variation (holes anywhere from 200' to around 400'
-Decent signs for holes (accurate in describing holes)
-Course was fun, especially if you get creative and go tee off on the asphalt walking path for the holes that start near the path, as these were the intended tees.
Cons:
-No facilities at course (no bathrooms, water fountains, garbage cans
-Didn't make full use of possible elevation changes (there is a whole other tier of elevation (15 vertical feet)) by walking path which has low pedestrian use
-Course looks like it could flood in high water events.
-Basket for hole 3 or 4 had sunk into the ground and the basket is at ground level, it needs to be repoured.
-Crappy tee pads (lines of brick, most of which I couldn't find even playing with the course designer)
Other Thoughts:
-The course is in a small park along the mississippi river down in a bowl surrounded by (levees?)
-I played it as a warm up for Eagle Point in Clinton, IA.
-The course will improve a bit as the trees grow.
