Very fun, challenging 9 hole course. Short and long tee pads for each hole, along with changing basket positions. No drainage, so don't bother going after a good rain. There are sometimes huge puddles completely covering certain areas. And the leaves are super bad in the fall

Probably the best 9 hole discgolf course. In the area. Two teepads and two baskets per hole. Fairly wooded.

I grew up on the neighborhood across the bridge . I wish they did this along time ago. The course is a little hard to navigate at first but after you play it a few times it gets easier.The main problem is that there is A LOT of poison ivy. But it is nice to be able to walk from my dad's house to go play if im over there. If you are driving I recommend entering on Bancroft Dr. Hole 1 is right behind left field of the baseball field.

Few issues, but overall solid still. First off, there are 2 main entrances to the park (by car, there is another walking path entrance it seems), but hole 1 doesn't start at either and there is no overview map nor "this was to hole one" sign. I just started at hole 8 and luckily hole 9 ends where hole 1 starts. For that, I'll take off a star. The signs for each hole are pretty clear nice, but be warned that the holes themselves and course is not really casual. Most of the holes have tree hazards all along the "fairway" and getting any sort of line is more luck than skill. I've played on a variety of courses and good ones will have some trees on the fairway that you have to avoid them dense trees off the fairway to punish you. Here, it's all just medium density of trees. Also, if hitting a tree every other hole isn't punishing enough, the par is pretty rough. Some holes are 250ft par 3, which is totally fair, but a few holes were 400ft plus and still par 3... and it wasn't like those holes had clear easy throws. Hole 9 in particular may have been the worst offender. For these transgressions, another star lost. But I will say that once you start playing and if you adjust the par to your level or more average course par (~1 throw+ additional per 100-150 ft depending on tree density), then it's a solid free play course that you can kill an hour or so at.

This course has potential. I guess it is fairly new. However nothing is numbered, no maps/directions & it seems to only have 7 baskets yet is a 9 hole course. Spent our time guessing before ending early and leaving. Hopefully numbers on baskets & signs will be added soon along with the maps.
