Trash course. Knee high grass. The rough is piles of cut down brush stuffed into the trees and bushes.

Course is fun, but you do cross a lot of pedestrian paths and the signage is not great on some holes.

BEWARE: Most of the holes cross paths with walkways: so be cautious and watch for other park visitors. The middle section of the course has some challenging and fun shots, but the bookends to this course seem like afterthoughts and not well designed holes. The final Three holes were clearly just made to get the player back to the start, and are slightly dangerous since they're close to both the road and the soccer fields where people might be playing. The equipment is older and not well maintained, but there were no damaged baskets or tees. Overall the equipment felt about right for this course, I'd hate to see premium baskets and tees wasted on such a lackluster design. If this is the closest course to you, then you will probably find something to like here and it's certainly replayable. I just wouldn't drive out of my way to go here when so many other better options exist nearby.

Solid course, mostly wide open. Great for distance driving

I had been avoiding this course all summer due to the harsh reviews. After my first visit last night, this is no longer necessary! It was a Sunday afternoon. The park was poppin'! There was a car show / car meet in the parking lot, lots of people out playing basketball, soccer, riding bikes, running, walking, having picnics, etc. It was an absolute vibe! I played the entire round at sunset & had the entire course to myself. I saw no other disc golfers, which was a shame for how beautiful it was out there. The course follows a trail, for better or for worse. Pros: - The course has a great flow from hole to hole. - Freshly mowed - Suprisingly good variety of throws & shapes of fairways - 2 separate tee pads on the longer holes - Cool retro tee signs that I'm assuming are from 2001, although they could use some TLC. - Awesome classic DGA Baskets that are a vibe to play on! - the course was immaculate & clean. It was nice to see so many happy people out enjoying the park on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. It was strange that there were no other discers out there though. Cons: - Course does follow a walking path. You must yield to pedestrians or wait for a clearing. *** I went on a very busy day and had to skip 4 holes. This was due to me not wanting to wait for the paths to clear as I was pressed for time playing a sunset round. - 2 of the tee pads were being blocked by overgrowth. Holes 5 & 14 I believe. *** this required me to get creative off the pad, but with just a small amount of work & this could be corrected. Conclusion: This is a worthy course of your frisbees! If you are local, definitely hit this place up! Don't be scared of the harsh reviews like I was! So many times I drove an extra 30+ minutes to other parts of the city just because I wanted to smash some quality chains. This is no longer needed. I wish I gave it a chance earlier. The course gets a 5 star review from me to offset all of the 1 star reviews! Otherwise, I'd say it is a solid 4ish star course for the area. See you out there! Have fun! ⛓️🥏 *** UPDATE: After playing here a few rounds, you can definitely tell that the course is an after thought compared to the rest of the park, but at least it IS a thought! I am very grateful to have these 18 baskets nearby. I think with a little bit of love & maybe a redesign of a few holes, this course could be great. It is good as of now!

Fun course, hard to play when the weather is nice because of pedestrian traffic/soccer. Good winter course
@gansonsalmon
Deserves a better rating. It’s not much but it’s better than other reviews suggest.
@jribich2
Beautiful trees and fun hole designs. Nice use of space for what the park has available. The grass was very tall and there was a lot of trash off of most fairways. Overall enjoyable!
@noahfree
As long as the park is minimally busy, this is a pretty solid course. While there are several forgettable holes, others are quite fun and provide a good challenge. Most of the back pads are great too; I just wish the course could’ve gotten into the woods and away from the path a bit more.
@kfree35
Not a bad course at all! Played here early on Monday of the eclipse so the park was pretty empty but still had to wait on walkers a few times. I can see how it would be impossible to play at busy times and if soccer games are going on. Some forgettable holes and mid design that just follows the path around a big circle on the back 9. But I enjoyed it overall
@mpotterlpg
My first time here. Nothing spectacular, but a convenient location and fun course within the city limits.
@drewmb10
Tons of trash all over the course and parking lot. Baskets are about 30 years old and rusted. The grass is waist deep underneath the baskets — they don’t bother trimming anything here. On top of how visually displeasing this course is, you’ll be throwing across and alongside very busy walking paths the whole time. Roughs are so bad that you’ll likely lose any disc playing solo. If you’re looking for a course in the Indy area, please visit literally any other one before you come here.
@jackreimondo
New parking lot! I feel there’s been a little more effort recently to care for the course, and I think definitely worth at least one play while it’s colder and there’s less brush, it plays way better than the last time I played.
@nathankingsley
Older but nice course. A little muddy for springtime. Signage not great. Lots of trash around the whole park. Fun layout though!
@racaloz73
Good park course. Some baskets need repair especially #4. Good conditions.
@ddownham
Fun park course with a handful of wooded, tunnel shots. There are some blind shots that you need to be aware of walkers/joggers at peak hours.
@jstueve
Great course! Missing a few signs. With some upkeep would be much better.
@zaccattack
No one cares about you anymore, you poor little course.
