Pleasantly Surprised 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Dec 31, 2018 Played the course:once

Pros:

From the long pads this course is challenging. Some really great holes that play alongside or over water. And several holes that were basically filler holes. Tight fairways to test your skill and I would guess it is usually windy being so close to Charlotte harbor. Inside clean restroom, course maps inside, easy to navigate once you find a hole to start on! Hole 18 is a great finishing hole where it takes two accurate placement shits before you can approach the green. It is an easy par from the long tees if you are playing for par, but I am sure many will lose their discs if they are trying to birdie it.

Cons:

No signs. It is a park, people park in the middle of the fairway, and you have to throw close to ballfields, tennis courts, and even an RC track. Lots of places where you could hit someone with a disc so I would definitely recommend you skip those holes if you are not very accurate with your drives. Hole 17 was a nice shot over and around water, but a guy was parked in the middle of the fairway and was hitting golf balls. I tried to throw around his truck because I wanted to play the hole and ended up losing my destroyer in the drink, oh well.

Other Thoughts:

Looks like they did good with what they had to work with. If the wooded land around the course belongs to the park they could make this an amazing course by moving the mediocre holes out a little bit away from the ball fields. If you are local, it is worth playing as it is, Wouldn't recommend traveling a great distance to play it though.
