Pros:

This course plays in a wooded area of a small campground.

The three Innova baskets were in great shape.

Teepads, while natural, were clearly marked with a wood plank buried in the ground, next to the tee marker.

Tee markers had the number of the hole, distance and an arrow with the general direction of where the hole was. Not very detailed, but it did the trick for this course.

There were some fun lines to shoot.

Very good course for beginners or if you are staying at the campground. The holes were not very long, the longest was around 240 feet, with most playing under 200 feet.

Cons:

Hole number one started in a weird place, I had to walk past all three baskets to get to the first tee. Six ended in a weird place as well... another long walk.

Navigation was a little tricky, I would advise to take a quick walk around the course and see how they have it laid out. The baskets have two numbers on them (1/4, 2/5, 3/6) and each basket has two tees.

The basket for hole 5 is directly in the way of 6 teepad. It is 10 feet in front of the tee box... so you have to shoot over it.

Other Thoughts:

I feel they are off to a good start here. I would like to see them add two or three baskets, redesign things a little and you will have a great beginner/family friendly course.

There were a couple open areas that you could add a hole or two in and I think it would help it flow much better.

I gave this course a 2.0. I almost rated it lower but I realize that it is a course with three baskets and is most likely intended for beginners and families, so ranking it lower would not be fair.

There is a deer blind in the middle of 1 fairway. I would advise you to not play here during hunting season.
