This is a 9-hole course, total length still to be measured. Par is 3 on all holes.
If a lamp post is the pin, you must hit the metal pole, not the concrete base. Any disc coming to rest completely within a garden bed, or too high above the ground for the player to reach it, will be played from the nearest in-bounds position at which the player may stand; the player will be assessed one penalty stroke. Similarly, any disc which hits a person will attract a one stroke penalty.
Precedent means that the vertical projection of a disc onto the ground is used to determine its position. This means that a disc which comes to rest above the ground (resting on vegetation or some other object), but has a section which is directly over the concrete border of a path, is in bounds (unless it is too high to reach). Similarly, on holes number 3 and 4, an upside down disc which is not touching the green plastic cover but which has a projection which crosses the plastic does not need another shot to complete the hole.
Where a tree is a target, you need to hit the trunk below the first branch. Exposed roots do not count as the trunk of a tree.

Eagles have been recorded on Holes 1 (Jeff Dunn, Ken Suber, Jemery Day), 3 (Jemery), 4 (Jeff), 6 (Felix Kennedy, Ken, Jemery, Jeff, Uwe Roserock), 7 (Ken, Jeff, Jemery, Jens Meyer), 8 (Jemery, Jeff), 9 (Ken, Jemery, Jeff, Fred Pribac, Steve, Felix). This course offers ample opportunities for birdies - a birdy or better has been recorded for every hole on this course.
While this course is sometimes played as a 9 hole course, more often 2 rounds of 9 are played to make 18 holes and the following 18 hole course records hold:
