History of the golfer who played this course:
I've been playing for about 2 and a half years. My all time weakness is using my driver and fairway woods. I'm a weekend hacker like most people and have never taken any formal lessons.

Specific likes about this course:
Holes range from 45 yards to 84 yards, averaging about 50 yards. All you need is a lob wedge and putter. The course sits on a hill, adjacent to a school. A small playground also shares the area, but is protected by high nets. All greens are elevated on a mound. Tee off is only permitted on the mats. Greens size range from about 10 feet to 15-20 feet. All the greens are circle-shaped, except for hole-5 (the 84-yard uphill hole) with a greenside bunker that's bigger than the green itself.

Dislikes about this course:
Practice green sits on a slope and is very slow. The grass is trimmed along with the patches of crab grass.

Is this course worth the fees?
For $4 a round, I can't really complain.

19th Hole: What extra amenities did this course offer?
There are no amenities available at this course. Smoking and alcoholic beverages are NOT permitted at this course.

Summary and opinions of this golf course:
This is a small, fast-paced pitch-n-putt course. Good place to practice wedges. If you have only 30-45 minutes of free time to practice pitching, this is a course for you. Unfortunately, teeing off mats just isn't the same as hitting off grass.
