I have played the one at East Roswell and at Golden Hills in Virginia, but those are shorter holes with not as much challenge for a noodle arm like me.
12 at East Roswell isn't an island, it's a "fake lake". OB area of rocks in front of the basket area with the perimeter marked by logs (and paint/string for tourneys). Lots of places to lay up or opportunities go around it, but at only about 200 ft (and only what, 170 to the far side of the "lake", nearly everyone can drive the pin. The challenge (like everywhere else at ERP) is avoiding the trees that are all around; even on a big lazy hyzer around it or a tomahawk over it, there's always a risk of hitting a tree and catching a bad ricochet into the OB area. I'll usually take the risk and run straight at it from the red or blue tees, but the tree right in front of the black pad gets in my head and I usually hyzer around from there.
