I will start out saying the first 4 holes are good, after that the rest of the course break's every PDGA design violation for safety standards. Let's start with hole 5 a short 170 foot wooded hole the shoots across a walking/ trail path and a deep gorge, it is very easy to overthrow this short hole, 10 feet behind the basket is the fairway for 6 and another walking path, 60 feet straight across is the basket for 18, and 18 is another short hole only 166 feet, so both 5 and 18 overthrow right into hole 6 fairway. It's the triangle of death, someone is going to get struuck by a flying disc. The course gets worse from here, hole 9 is 290 f00t right turning shot that throws across 2 walking paths in which one of them is blind from the pad. Hole 12 400 feet throws across another walking path, Hole 14 shots across a driveway and parking lot. Another serious hazard. Get ready to walk about a 1/4 mile between a couple of holes as well. Hole 16 has a huge hazard, the tee pad is only 50 feet away from a play ground and grip lock shots could find there way there. People at the parks department are hard headed and unwilling to take advice on these hazards. Peoples safety should be the #1 concern. The park is big and has plenty of room to accommodate a quality course. And I want them to understand all the signs warning disc golf zone means nothing when you design a course thorhout a walking trail. I highly suggest that parks department seek out a professional designer to correct all the infractions left behind by the parks department. Pro about the course, good signs , decent tee pads

The placement of some of the tee offs are unsafe they did not consider that discs can fly as fast as 70 mph. Its not smart to put that near a playground if someone grip locks their disc it could fly right and hit a kid

The baseball fields are very well maintained. They sell refreshments. As seniors, we only paid $2.00 each to see the games.

We stopped here for a quick 9 holes on our way to Lake Hartwell. We loved the ones we played and hope to finish them all some day!
