Other Thoughts:

Short perimeter-of-park loop of 9, new in 2021. Easy play with putter and approach discs, although a few holes require some control (notably the downhill dogleg left #1 and the long floating downhill #7).


You really can't play this course when others are using the park because the layout borders a baseball diamond (with a blind shot on 9 that could sail into first base), threads through a picnic area and near basketball and beach volleyball courts. But if you play at a time when it's empty (as I did, on a warm summer evening), it's pretty and peaceful, and makes for a fun practice track.


Clever signage, with posts that include hole maps carved into the sides. Natural tees, new yellow Latitude baskets that are easy to spot.


Not a destination by any means, and only marginally useful for practice because of interference with other park activities, but thumbs up to the township for putting it in.


If you can play when the park is otherwise empty, it's an excellent place to introduce new players to the game.
