One of my favorite courses. It requires a variety of shots that are mostly technical, but some that also require some significant length. Really will help to challenge you. It is hilly, but it also has the advantage of draining pretty well such that you can play it when other courses in the area might still be muddy.

Relatively tight course, but exceptionally well balanced. Good use of elevation and natural terrain. Baskets for #7, #10 & #11 sit very close to each other but not even really noticeable in the summer months. Not to many drawbacks to this course unless you are looking for open areas to rip for distance. Noted that there are some areas where its easy to get onto adjacent fairways, especially #9 & #10. Baskets for #14 and #15 can be easily mistaken, and the routing from #14 basket to #15 tee is into the fairway or #15. Only one set of tee's.

Course is the bees knees , deff the more I play it I just wanna go back and do even better,challenging course hard to play a perfect round with the trees and elevation changes but the land is used perfectly ,but any course where u can shoot ten down or +5-+10 is a winner In my book , practically made this my second home course I drive a half hour anytime to play

This is a very entertaining course to play, very technical with a lot of elevation changes. I have only played it less than a dozen times each time I finish I want to play it again. I wish I lived closer to be able to play it more often luckily the group I play with are from Massillon so we alternate from Massillon to Akron to Kent.

awesome course!! very technical and tight, with a great mix of elevation changes. and trees a plenty can make for an interesting round. the course had a fairly easy flow, with arrows directing next tee locations when need be. some of the signage is damaged (i think a few of the first holes), but other than that the course is maintained very well. my only complaint is some of the baskets weren't marked too well. while approaching on hole 14, we threw at 15's basket. both throw up the hill, but it seems to me it would make more sense to throw something down the hill for 15 instead of walking back down to throw back up again. still a great course that i definitely will be playing again any time i'm in the area.

Pretty sweet epic landscape of hills, woods, large rocks, ravines, roads, some water, etc. Some very tough shots. Often the holes are too narrow off the tee, very hard to park a hole that should be easier. Tough, tough putting greens (especially with old mach's that spit 5 ft putts out the back). Very well marked w/arrows. Worth the trip.

Nice course, nice elevation changes. Major drop-offs if your shot goes awry. There are a lot of short holes, but the obstacles make them difficult. My only problem was playing while there were wet leaves all over. A simple slip and fall could lead to a serious injury. Looking forward to playing again once everything has dried up. Update - I have played here a few times this summer, very cool course. Perfect piece of land for a DGC. One of the best courses around for a hot day; plenty of shade, not too much distance, and I didn't find myself wasting much time looking for discs.

You MUST play this course.

Elevation changes, absolutely PERFECT pin placements, extreme technical variation, playable by beginners, good attendance at events (especially winter doubles), and the fact that the course has little overlap with other park uses makes this a real gem.

I have a hard time poking holes in this course. A pro is capable of 10 under or better on a great day, but the technical challenges throughout the course still present issues that make most great scores EARNED. There are so many cool features to the layout of this course that I have to restrain myself from scoring it an A+.

I rate this course 4 out of 5 stars.

Pros
- Plenty of parking, pavilion between holes #1 & #2
- Playground for the kids with grills
- Bathrooms located by hole #7 (note that as of 06/14/11, they were vandalized and appeared to be in the process of being renovated)
- Billboard at the entrance
- Map is accurate and very handy your first time out. The course can be confusing without the map.
- Concrete tees are in great shape
- Fantastic tee signs
- Convenient next tee signs
- Baskets are in good condition and well labeled
- The course flows well even with the interruption of the road between holes #6 & #7 and #15 & #16. Hole #1 starts at the parking lot and hole #18 ends right across the street near the parking lot. The land was utilized to the upmost ability.
- Amazing mix of shots required. Left and right turns, over hills and through ravines, over and under overhanging tree limbs.
- Gorgeous scenery with a rolling landscape. Constant elevation changes add tremendous value to this course. Beautiful stonework stairs make the course look 100 years old.
- Fantastic upkeep! This course is better looking than some ball golf courses I’ve seen. Huge thanks to the club that keeps this course top notch.
- Plenty of trashcans
- Low traffic except for disc golfers
- Benches located at the holes where you need them most!

Cons
- Bring your bug spray and watch out for poison ivy. Seems to be a breeding ground for mosquitoes.
- Hole #3 is right near private property probably receives a lot of discs
- The roads that criss-cross through the course can be very busy

Other Thoughts
- This is a very beautiful course and one that I make plans to visit at times of the year when there is plenty of moss and full natural growth when the course is at its’ most beautiful state.
- Very scenic rock/water garden near the basket for #12 & #18
- I would not say that the overall course is challenging but the course certainly has it’s challenges. Holes #3 & #5 have some of the more challenging tees to drive from and you can very easily hit a tree just a few feet away.
- The distance of the course is fairly short but requires some technical shots. Only able to really rip it on a few holes.
- The most challenging hole for me is #14. Not only is this longest hole but there is a small opening to aim for with OB to the right.
- My favorite hole is #7. It’s short but the basket is located on a mound and I enjoy the challenge of trying to nail that straight shot through the trees and maybe one day I’ll get that ace!
- I would classify this as a destination course but only in the seasons when all of nature is in full bloom

The Massillon course is one of my favorite courses. Its tight shots through trees and changing elevation keep you guessing on every hole. This unique layout keeps you on your toes and will kick your tail if your not on the top of your game. These features and challenging holes make it enjoyable every time I play there.

A rather stark contrast (in a good way) to neighboring Arboretum as this course contains much greater elevation changes and tighter fairways. Beautiful location and the entire course provides for a wonderful hike with lots of natural beauty. Enjoyable for the most part, but continually hitting trees on most holes can be a major draw back.

Ultra maintained by Brian Brenner a SCDGA club member who takes pride in his home course. Brian along with the park department and a few other people are a main influence on the up keep of this course. Stark Counties most beautiful course. Couple more minor details and this course will be a A+ for sure.
