A lot of potential, but needs an overhaul 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 25, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

- Some challenging holes that can be satisfying to beat
- Easy to find, park, and play

Cons:

- Ridiculously close to parking, fences, and areas where people are picnicking, playing other sports, or hiking/riding
- On some holes you literally have to wait to shoot through traffic on the bike/walking trail
- No tee pads, just yellow tee posts with broken house numbers. Tee posts are completely missing from holes #4 and #6
- Numerous hidden baskets-- you'll frequently have to tee off blindly the first time you play
- Current map on DGCR is very inaccurate. Map date is currently from 2012, and this course has apparently undergone a remodel since then
- Some real long walks between baskets and the next tees

Other Thoughts:

You'll have to play very conservatively on some of these holes to keep from bonking innocent bystanders. Hard to lose a disc here, except for over some very close fences. Since this course winds through the park in-between softball diamonds and around tight corners, it could really stand to use some hole maps on the tee. Probably a quarter of the walking I did on my round here was just looking for the basket or the next tee. This course has a lot of easily-realized potential for players who don't mind crowded spaces.
