We went here in 2016 & thought it was absolutely bonkers. It was super overgrown & there was absolutely no signage or direction to the course, or for the course. Went back in 2024 to compare...it's still overgrown & still absolutely freaking insane. Have the map loaded on your phone or printed out. This course is difficult because of how overgrown it is, the terrain, and the length. Wear pants, long sleeves, and good, waterproof boots. Disc with another person or bring a spotter otherwise you will lose lots and lots of discs. At the time, we thought #17 was the craziest because you throw across the river, but in retrospect, it was one of the more straightforward holes. Concrete teepads are legit AF. See photos for side-by-side 2016/2024 comparisons.

despite a complete lack of maintenance, signage and atv/ dirt bike traffic, easily most beautiful course I've been to. it was an old strip mine operation that nature has taken back there're hills and difficult terrain, not for casual golfers. Warning the rough is unforgiving, be prepared to lose a disc

Definitely a hard one for beginners! Updated maps would be nice, a lot seem to be missing or damaged; I definitely didn’t go in order. Other than that, the landscape was beautiful & a very unique course! If you happen to be near this town for some reason, check out this disc golf course!

We enjoyed. The disc golf very much. Had a little hard time finding it at first but was pointed to in the right direction by a passing ATV. The course is challenging a little bit physically so if you cannot walk up some hills it might not be for you but you can easily skip those holes. Thank you for making a nice course.

Not my favorite course that I've played. Lots of up and down. In some places, if you go into the rough or off course, your disc is gone forever. Tee pads in nice shape. Most holes didn't have signage or it was broken. No map at the start. We had to find a map online and figure out where the course started.
