Pros:

This course offers a decent mix of short, moderate, and longer holes. Also there are some holes that are dog leg right and some dog leg left holes as well. The course uses what elevation is present as best it can.
Posts in the ground to mark the tees.
The front 9 is pretty open for the most part allowing you to air out some throws. This course provides the opportunity for some safari action if you are bored with the current set up.
This course would be a good place to work on your approach/midrange game on several holes.
Disc lost should be at a minimum here.
Hole 5 allows you the chance to air out a drive as its the longest hole on the course.
6 was a nice tunnel shot hole and the best hole on the course IMO.
There are a few holes in which the basket is protected which helps to add to the challenge.
The back 9 holes were more wooded and provided some lines to be hit.

Cons:

The basket for hole 9 was missing. I would guess its been gone for a while as per previous reviews.
The baskets have seem a lot of wear over time. They still do their jobs but aren't the prettiest girls at the ball. Some only had 1 set of chains.
The front 9 was pretty open. This can be a pro and a con depending on your point of view.
Holes 3-5 play around or close to a playground area so please be cautious when you throw.
The sand tees are showing signs of rutting so footing could be a factor especially after a heavy rain.
The flow is a bit off at times making you backtrack in spots. First time user might spend a good bit of time trying to find the next tee, correct basket, etc.

Other Thoughts:

This course appears to not get the love that it needs. The missing basket is a huge con and makes it feel incomplete. 18's tee marker is missing and you basically have to decide where to tee off from as its not well defined. They used what is available as best that could be used here and with a few improvements this course could be a tad better.
If you are in the area and are looking for another course to play then hit this one up. Its not a destination course but it still has something to offer.
