Pros:
-Great mixture of lefts and rights.
-Perfect mixture of heavily wooded lines that force particular lines and long, open shots that let you air it out.
-Very good teepads with great signage.
-Plenty of benches and trash receptacles.
-Very friendly locals that we ran into.
-Beautiful old growth trees with thick canopy up high.
-Nice variation with pin locations and gold-vs-red tee's.
-Plenty of parking.
-The course was very clean and well maintained.
-Great use of incorporating the ever-daunting but clear and clean, fast-flowing stream that runs throughout the course.
-Pin locations made upshots very important as many baskets were dangerously close to heavy woods/brush, and also to the very deep banked stream.
-Heavily shaded by canopy through the majority of the course.
-Baskets are in great condition.
-Not all par 3's! They have thrown in holes that change up the par 3 repetition, and that's always nice.
Cons:
-This place gets very sticky and muddy. The mud is like glue to your hands, discs, and feet. I tried my best to clear out the mud off my shoes before getting on the teepads, but it was seriously difficult and made for a few high releases because of slipping on your pivot foot.
-It was pretty busy when we were playing, so there was a good amount of waiting though it was not obnoxious. Just be aware and prepared. It might be for a longer than normal round.
-Mud, mud, and more mud. The beautiful canopy above you in all the old growth trees makes drying this place out a very long process.
-Quite a lot of poison ivy, but it makes sense with the damp conditions.
-A lot of the baskets are blind from the teepad, so knowing if the basket is in the A, B, or C position takes a walk to look ahead fairly often. Some type of moveable marker on the sign would help out a lot.
-Though the boxed concrete bases for the pins do nicely to solidly plant the pin in place, they also wreck your putters and softer plastics that so happen to impact them. I have quite a few new, very deep scars on my discs from impacting the sharp edges of the concrete.
-If you go in the beautiful but deep and swift stream, say goodby to your disc. It's a goner.
Other Thoughts:
Really, this is a fantastic course. They received about an inch of rain 2 days prior to my arrival, so that could certainly be the culprit for the sticky muddy conditions. However, it seems to me that this course has a lot of the symptoms of a place that does not dry out very often (poison ivy, mud pads before every teepad, deep leafy brush, etc..)
However, if you allow some of those annoyances to keep you from playing this course, you are doing yourself quite the disservice; just bring bug spray, long pants, and a few towels. If you prepare for it, you should love this course.
This course is an enjoyable walk as it is in a VERY NICE park with great water features and beautiful bridges plus having the always present old-growth trees just makes for a very pleasant location to play.
