Pros:
- Baskets are newer and in good shape.
- Clearly marked tee pads, though not great pads in of themselves.
- Beautiful forested setting in the Pemberton area.
- Good course for beginners.
- Free (and plenty of) parking adjacent to the course of the highway.
Cons:
- Very short course, with all holes easily a Par 3 but some labelled as Par 4.
- Tee pads are well marked, but they are uneven and small natural pads, which is okay because you don't need run-ups but still not ideal.
- "Technical" understates the fact that there just isn't a reasonable line to the basket on a few of these holes, the windows are only a few feet wide. I grew up on wooded courses and enjoy them, but a couple of the holes are sort of close your eyes and pray throws from the tee.
Other Thoughts:
- Not a cart friendly course (you won't really need anything more than mid-ranges if you're an Intermediate or above player). There isn't space to rip a real drive anywhere in the forest, this is not the course for you if you're looking for somewhere to open up and huck a few big ones.
- Not a good course for anyone (e.g. elderly) who don't like uneven/rough terrain.
- Overall an enjoyable huck in the woods, but it's so short and it's so plinko-ish it's not a course I would go out of my way to return to. I did enjoy both of the Whistler courses moreso than this one. I am appreciate of the fact that there is a course in the area, however, and to whoever took the time to put it in! Any disc golf is better than no disc golf, and it is at the very least clear which hole is which and how to play the course.
- I think this course is a 2.3 if I could give it that, I gave it a 2 as it's at a 2.5 right now. Doesn't mean it's a bad course by any stretch, but just means it's a bit of a niche 9 hole short technical course and if it's not what you're looking for I wouldn't go out of your way to visit this course.
