Played the course a couple of days ago. And while this course isn't going to hold any world championships, it IS the type of course I believe that New England needs more of.
Short
Takes a small amount of time to play (for the ADD that exists in most (or prospective) dg'ers)
Allows someone to play a LOT of holes in a given time (and thus more real-life putting practice can be had)
Wooded
Every shot has SOME obstacle you have to negotiate (there are no totally open shots void of at least potential pitfalls)
Pretty
Lulls you into a false sense of nirvana (and then 'wapp', you hit first available)
Shows newbies just how nice dg can be
Flows well / not too far to next tee from last basket
Less time walking, more time throwing
Challenging
While I went -4 off the longs and -7 off the shorts, I doubt you'll see a -9 off the longs any time soon (by ANYONE), yet any newbie has the potential to "bag-a-birdie" their inaugural play (and that'll keep them coming back).
This course - off the shorts - reminds me of a shorter Rutgers. And many a very good NJ dg'er cut their teeth on that one.
This course - off the longs - may need a few tweaks but is still worth the drive / price of admission ($5).
Remember, until you go -9 for a 9-holer, there's still "work to be done"

Ps: While one could think that holes 7 - 9 contain "funny angles" (discs have a hard time flying THAT route), to actually even have a birdie putt attempt on all 3 holes in any round is no small feat.
