It was OK... 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 30, 2011 Played the course:once

Pros:

Interesting use of hazards. Fun short course.

Cons:

needs better t-pads as well as better fairways. Overall everything is too easy less the ponds.

Other Thoughts:

If it was used more or mowed better there wouldn't be too much issue with this course.

Stinkwater 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:May 15, 2010 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Nice Innova Discatcher baskets.

A good layout for the space available. You can run through this thing fast and bang out a quick 27 holes in less than an hour and be way under par to boot.

Cons:

The course is ungroomed. It has an abundance of three things: grass, mosquitoes, and stinky pools of water. As the warm season progresses, it just gets worse on all fronts.

Each hole is basically just a hyzer or straight shot for a RHBH player. The only thing that changes is the distance, and even that doesn't change much. Despite that, it's not a great course for beginners because of all the hazards.

The main challenge this course presents is finding your disc in the grass or water, should you not park your drive on every hole (which is entirely possible for anyone who can throw 400').

The parking lot is just a small dirt area where you can park 4 or 5 cars. However, that is plenty of space for the amount of traffic this course usually gets.

Other Thoughts:

It's a decent 9 hole considering it's location. It's way off the beaten path for most people. As a result, this place has just a small population of regular recreational players.

If you live within 15 minutes or plan on driving past it, consider playing it, but bring bug repellent. Otherwise, skip it.
