This course had 17 baskets today (that we could find). The course is open year-round, even though the gated section is only open Memorial Day to Labor Day.
I numbered them below for starting at the tee by the logs, just outside the last set of gates, near the sign saying "Park Is Open Memorial Day to Labor Day." That way you can park in the big open parking lot behind the barricades, instead of parking in the gravel along the entrance road.
Here is how to play the 17 baskets that we found today. To make it 18, you could use the painted stake sticking up from the the anchor where the basket is missing on the first hole as your pin, and then play the next tee to the next basket (instead of combining the first two holes as we did), then add 1 to remaining hole numbers.
Hole 1: Plays through the old pin position, to the next basket. It's two old holes made into one. Disregard the teepad you will encounter along the way. This is an ORDGC hole. But the next ORDGC hole (huge dogleg right, second shot over water, to basket near bench between path and entrance road) is not in play.
Hole 2: Brick teebox by side of main entrance road, throwing back toward the main entrance, to the original hole 1 basket. This is also an ORDGC hole.
Hole 3: Is now in the low-fenced "dog park." An ORDGC hole.
Hole 4: The next basket is gone, which was near the main entrance park sign by the highway. Skip ahead to the next hole, past that old pin that is now gone, where you tee off slightly uphill, then fly slightly downhill, toward the picnic table, where the path curves almost 180 degrees around behind the basket. A standard hole.
Hole 5: Tee off by that picnic table, on that knob, where people fish, and throw along the water line, to a basket between the path and the water. This is an ORDGC hole.
Hole 6: The long one in the field. A standard hole.
Hole 7: A standard hole, the tee near the water, between the path and the water, with a bench, the straight shot throws over the water, to a basket in a little knob. A standard hole.
Hole 8: Tee is near the highway, you throw a straight shot parallel to the highway, to basket with a small pond behind it. A standard hole.
Hole 9: Tee is just past the footbridge. You throw over the canal, to the basket on a peninsula. A standard hole.
Hole 10: Tee is not far from the back bathrooms, you throw over an arm of the water, through a grove to a basket set back by the next arm of water. A standard hole.
Hole 11: Hike up and out of that green, onto a bike path, then tee off before you reach the end of the path, over the water, to a basket just below the highway. This is an ORDGC hole. Alternatively, tee of from the standard tee at the end of the path, right next to the highway, in the fire access driveway, by the fire gates. A standard hole.
Hole 12: Tee is near the highway, this a long straight hole, parallel to the highway, throwing back toward the footbridge, Or if you are feeling brave, try and skip a righty hyzer off the water in the canal! A standard hole.
Hole 13: Tee is just past the footbridge. The basket is in the ORDGC position. This is a double water crossing, unless you have amazing distance and accuracy. Alternatively, just walk the first water crossing, and tee off from the path, at the narrowest point. This takes out the water crossings. (The next hole in the ORDGC is not in play: the one where the pin is by the horseshoe pits.)
Hole 14: There is a bit of a walk to this tee pad, through the large picnic area / shelter / bathrooms with the funky cool architecture. the teepad is huge: the "helipad." The basket is out on the peninsula. Walk this one first if you are not sure, the landing areas are treacherous, and blind from the tee. A standard hole. Or if you are feeling brave, you could play the ORDGC tee, which is way back by the baseball backstop, on the road that connects the seasonal front and back parking lots.
Hole 15: Walk back from the pin, then turn left, the tee is there. You can't see the basket yet. This is a dogleg right, and the last tree is mando left. The basket is on a downsloping peninsula with brutal rollaway potential. Alternatively, walk way out and left onto the next peninsula, to the ORDGC tee, and then it is a straight shot, an ORDGC hole.
Hole 16: Tee off by the "amphitheater" toward the parking lots. The basket is in the ORGC position, on an island of grass, surrounded by parking lots. The basket is in the ORDGC position.
Hole 17: Walk back on the road toward the seasonal gates. Tee is on the left. Basket is just short of the logs, by the seasonal gates. A standard hole.
It was wet, but not yet swampy. Fun was had by all!
