I will come back, partly because it's close to home. A very pleasant school course, mostly under very mature cedar forest, with a few shots across open field. Features beautiful, shiny 28-chain Dynamic Disc baskets. 8 have number flags; 1 of them has a flag that's totally ragged, but it's alone in the car corner of the field, so there's no doubt about it being the right one. Tees are small turf squares that are lumpy, but I'm an old guy who doesn't run up on drives anymore. #1 is an exception - it's the corner of the parking lot beside the course map sign. I had the whole place to myself on a mild October Saturday afternoon, but if you tried to crowd several groups in here you would find fairways cross each other dangerously. Cell reception is perfect (T-Mobile), so the Udisc maps work fine. Course is a little overgrown. Not waist high, or anything, but my first drive landed short, and since I wasn't in the groove yet, didn't track it properly, and found myself tentatively probing into a thick patch of stinging nettles about mid-calf high, in shorts & ankle socks. (That was me in the shorts etc., not the nettles.) I was surprised to find patches like that on school grounds, but it's a private school with limited funds. I bet they would welcome a little volunteer help. This is not a destination course, but if you have just finished a round at NSRA and have a little energy left, it's a great detour, right next to highway 20. Also a good option to bring your kids (in long pants, and make sure they know nettle leaves.)

Fine for what it is, but would hate to play of anyone else was playing. So many holes overlap. Fine for what it is, great for practice on short game or growing the sport with kids

Use this course as a putter and approach practice. Forces you to know where you landed or at least track it and hit your lines.

Perfectly fine for what it is - a little neighborhood practice course through the woods

Not a bad short course. Only complaint is some of the hole sign posts are too close to the tee pad.

Great short course for beginners. nice amount of trees. but be careful not to let a throw slip or you might hit a car or go in someone's backyard.

Very low quality tee boxes

Lots of thistles on the fairways and between baskets and tee pads. Difficult to know if you're supposed to just trudge over all the greenery or if there's an intended path.

@jcruzness

No pad or sign for hole one but you can throw from the cement parking lot. Fun short, not very technical, 9 hole. Great for mid and putt practice.

#8 tee sign awkward for #4 drive, but nice quick course

Someone has vandalized & removed 2 tee signs.

Fun layout. Some holes cross and tee pads/baskets close together
