Love the place, but needs a great deal of attention . Overgrown and really just can play 8 of the disc golf holes in the summer with the vegetation. They need to fix the pond. The level dam has failed, and the pond has dropped 3-4 feet, making the growth on the pond quite scummy and the fish can'tget enough oxygen. The Round Barn needs woodwork and paint. Not my tax dollars, so I have no say but really quite a beautiful place and quite the landmark.

It's got Baskets!! Nice , well Maintained park. Good quick course. Nice launch pads.

Nice course for beginners and pros featuring double baskets on each hole with silver being shorter distance and red baskets further out, except on hole 9. There is a man made pond you have to throw by for holes 3, 4, 5, and 11, so either throw cautiously for new players, skip them if you don't even want to risk it, or be prepared to get wet or say goodbye to any disc you land in the water. The terrain is nice with no significant hills or anything though it's not completely flat and there are some mildly wooded holes in addition to the way more open holes with few trees or obstacles. A proficient player can get through the course alone in under an hour and groups up to four can play it through in about an hour and a half to two hours depending on how much time you take throwing and looking for your discs. It's nice and secluded in a way so there's very low potential on course for interference from non-players though some people do occasionally try to walk the course paths with their kids not fully realizing they're on an active course fairway. Fun course with varying levels of challenge, a must for anyone around the area, round barn farm disc golf course is a good time and you can always meet other friendly players who just might play a round with you if you're both there solo.

Very over grown. Most of the holes are unplayable. Update: they removed all the baskets and it's still wildly over grown.

- Mike Scott

On the course now. Not sure how covid has impacted the budget for this course. That being said the high/wild grass is out of control.. many holes require expert throwing. Bring a bunch of discs you care nothing about to throw here. Beautiful lay out just extremely bad small paths cut to be able to throw in. The over grown grass from its opening year to today is a 180 change.
