Course has been cleaned nicely. $3 fee at the front gate. Dropbox provided, also has scorecards and directions. Discs are available in the front gate for rental or to buy. Intermediate course, always fun to play
I am currently an Am and shoot Under Par on a good day.
On a bad day, +1 or break even.

Well maintanied mid-range course requiring finese not power. Course is carved out of heavily wooded area. Ask for a map at the front gate upon entry. Even with it, I found it hard to navigate the course. There are a few signs near baskets pointing players in direction of next hole, but then it's hard to find the tee area on many holes. Once the tee area is determined, you have to walk the fairway on about two-thirds of the holes in order to find the basket as you can't see the baskets from the tee area.
All thast the park needs is to drop some 4x4 posts into the ground at the tee areas with hole number and length and the course gets another link grade.
As an advanced player I shot even with 16 pars on my first round.
