Most holes have either two gravel tees with tee signs or two color coded DisCatcher baskets, some have only one of each and some both. This provides a bevy of playable layout options.

The design is very balanced integrating a spectacular amount of variety of woods and open space and elevation and fast greens. You get a bit everything from tight & technical to long open bombs and some some good fun factor.

Two loops of 9 holes, thank you Jesus! This would be brutal as a single loop, I was pooped after the front 9 and ran out of H2O. I was amazed at how little rough and underbrush there was for being a newish course with such serious elevation.

Course is a natural beauty with sweeping meadows and some cool rock outcroppings throughout the woods. Large park with lots of other activities especially around the beach.

My biggest issue with the course is probably with the tee signs, some of them confused me more than if there was no sign. A friend of mine lives nearby and he said the same thing about the tee signs.

Hole 4 I ended up playing down to hole 6's tee pad, I didn't think the fairway went right into the woods blind there and snakes down a winding trail. I somehow missed holes 12 and 13. Then I got super confused on hole 14 seeing basket 14 and couldn't believe the basket was on the other side of the rough.

Gravel tees aren't the best. Muddy in some places. Interference with other park users in places. A lot of annoying backtracking to the blue tees and some have some tight weird lines from them. Some of the elevation in the design felt awkward as well. A lot of walking in general and course is a hike. Mosquitoes were atrocious. A little bit of poison ivy in places.

Not necessarily a con, although I was caught off guard as it's not mentioned anywhere that it costs $10 to enter the park if you are out of state.

I wanted to like this course so much more than I did, I still think it's a great course hence a 3.5 rating, and I was really close to giving it a 4, it's like a 3.74 for me. With some slight upgrades and modifications this course could easily be a 4.5 for me. Lots of my issues are due to being a traveling player playing here for the first time. If this was my local course I would enjoy playing here often. It took me much longer than I expected to finish and I still missed two holes, so if you are traveling player plan on some extra time to play here or find a local guide.
