About the course

Challenging short course that really isn't that well maintained. It's a pretty decent course overall but stay on the fairway the overgrown Brier bushes are not any fun to go digging around for your disc in.

If you plan on playing here, don’t! Here’s why: - Baskets: Some are fine. Others should not be considered a basket. (See picture of basket #4) - Fairways: Don’t exist. I played in December so they were a little better, but they still are so thin it’s asking a lot even from the Pros. This course is not a blue difficulty. - Rough: Even in the winter, wear jeans. The rough is made entirely of logs and thorns. - Layout: Front nine is awful. Can’t see the basket you’re throwing to through the trees and by playing you are just begging to lose a disc. Back nine is much better, though still has terrible rough, but is much more open (though still skinny compared to a normal course). Signage: UDisc is the only hope. There are signs to tell you where the next pad is, and that’s it. Without UDisc you have no idea where you are. I can only imagine how much worse it is during the summer. Location: It’s in the middle of nowhere. Not worth the drive or the $4 to get in. No one is here. Great to walk, awful to throw. Scenery: The only good thing about this course. It’s beautiful and peaceful. (As long as you don’t mind hearing your disc hit a tree every now and then. To sum it up: This course is not worth the drive or stress. I’m 95% sure it’s abandoned. There is no upkeep. I don’t recommend playing unless you are prepared to lose something. Luckily I didn’t, though it got close a few times. I’m glad I crossed it off the list, but there are much better options in the surrounding cities.

It's rugged yet beautiful wooded hilly terrain. It's obvious the course has been neglected for years but that's the beauty of it. Also, a course that should only be played in the off season but any real disc golfer can handle it. If it ever gets attention it has potential to be so much better.
