Pros: great challenging course spread out wonderfully. Lots of challenging shots and the 3 tees make it fun to play. well maintained
Cons: lots of walking( not for the faint of heart)
This course is very well maintained and spread out nicely. You will work up a sweat traversing the course, but the challenge of each hole (three tees and moving holes) keeps me coming back. The "fore more" holes are deviously long and difficult, but always a fun way to end a round of 18 holes.
Fun and wooded. Usually three tees per hole (red, white, blue), sometimes an alternate basket. Cuts through the woods with fairways expertly carved out. Disregard the pars for the advanced tees - or kill yourself trying to par the 514-foot uphill "par 3" #18. Well trodden and usually not too busy. Linear layout, difficult to get lost.
Because it borders baseball fields, you might have to battle Little League traffic to park, but you'll find that no matter how crowded the park is, the disc golf course will be open to you.
Nice course! Bring your marksmanship and walking shoes. And save time for "Fore More (#19-#22)," perhaps the highlight of the course.
