Reviews
"Very nice disc golf course, only problem is borders some fenced yards, so quite easy to lose a disc."
"The 9-hole disc golf course makes this place special today. It was also one of the area's popular trolley parks over a century ago."
"It's a beautiful park. But right now they're putting in a new playground in the lower part of the park. Where it is flat. The rest of the park is on a slope. They have a basketball court. They use to have swing sets; but they are putting the kids area there now. I use to sit by the swings when I got off the bus to go home. You can see another of our city squirrels, busy in the fall collecting acorns for the winter. For there are a lot of Oak and Maple tree's in the park.Very shady in the summer. I'll close for now"
"This is a great intermediate or beginner level 9 hole course. The holes range from 200-400 m and are mostly par 3 and maybe 1-2 par 4's with some trees as obstacles. The course is on a hill side, so walking the course is a decent workout. There also are not any major hazards to lose discs in besides some medium density woods or a neighbor's yard. This course might be a little too easy for advanced or serious disc golf players, but it is great for the casual player. Each hole has 2 tees with a short and long option, but only the longer one has the paved starting area. The course is fairly easy to follow as in we did not have too much difficulty figuring out how to get from one hole to the next. Course starts and ends near the parking lot between the high school and the community center. The course is shaded and has great views which we enjoyed as well."
"For what it is, this is a great little course. A little repetitive. If they plant some rhododendron or pines to break up the holes, it would be pretty sweet."
