A great course with 1 glaring issue. First, this park is beautiful. Unlike a lot of man made lakes around here, they didn't feel the need to clear the shoreline and put unsightly boat ramps with treeless parking lots around the edges. There are a few streams and a river with a wonderful footbridge which runs overtop. A great location for a disc golf course. This course is all about control. Most players would find the sub 100 meter holes too easy if they were in the open, but this course forces you to ease off and showcase your control over release angles and disc speed. Though many of the fairways are tight, they all have a cleared path wide enough for most players to navigate. The first few holes warm up your arm with straightforward tunnel drives through the flat valley. Hole 4 (I believe, not 100%) does have a grill and picnic bench poorly situated in the middle of the green, but I don't know how often they are used. This is the only hole where there is a glaring issue with park planning. As the holes move from the low-land, across the dam, and up into the wooded hillside, the course designers start to showcase the unique opportunities this landscape has to offer. As I progressed through the course I worried the drastic elevation changes and water hazards would prove deflatingly difficult. To the contrary, I found the course layout to use the terrain to reward carefully placed throws without being overly punishing to the smallest of miscalculations. I think the key here is the designer kept the distances manageable for the average player. The only reason I give this course a 4/5 star rating is the teepads are... rather poor. They are about 4 feet too short (even when they have plenty of space for longer ones) and they have a wood frame around the edge which is higher than the centers making running onto the pad a treacherous endeavor. There are rubber mats on the pads, which are extremely helpful with all the leaves on the ground, but they are held in place with steel bolts that are stick up about an inch in many cases, giving you another serious tripping hazard to worry about. On many of the pads I skipped a run-up altogether due to the precariousness of the tee pads. Hopefully this is something that can be improved on.

This course is a great layout. The reason for 4 stars is they need new, longer tee pads. The ones they have are rubber and only 8’ long, 4’ wide and sunk in the ground. Please replace. I can help do this. I have birdied 15 out of the 18 holes here and I am not a pro. Beautiful scenery. Be prepared to have a spotter looking for ur disc on the first 5 holes. It’s thick brush off the fairway.

Not well taken care of. Each year it gets worse. The trails are so grown in that you have to duck and crawl to get through.

Great course. Front 5 is nice warm up. Hole 16 is a killer. Unfortunately the course needs some serious upkeep. It's very overgrown.

Love this park. We play the disc golf course every now and then. Nice wooded area, stream with a waterfall and a lake. The disc golf course is challenging and fun with a few baskets that have water hazards.
