Camp Carl DGC

Played a 19 hole layout from the white tees for a recent C-Tier Tournament. Initial impressions were very positive. The property is expansive, clean, and beautiful.

Played a 19 hole layout from the white tees for a recent C-Tier Tournament. Initial impressions were very positive. The property is expansive, clean, and beautiful. The course starts near the main dining & office facility plays the first 6 holes in a traditionally open layout with elevation then dives into the woods with a few more open holes spread throughout to complete the current layout.

Holes 1 thru 9 are in great shape and suit my preferred course style. They take advantage or rolling elevations and mature trees with some thick rough in spots. The remainder of the layout has many good holes and a handful of areas that still need a lot of ground work to get up to speed with the first half. Currently the course is good, with time and development it could become really good to great.

Replacing the tire mounted baskets, and installation of concrete tees along with some waste receptacles and benches could catapult the condition of this course.

The design is imaginative and every hole is unique. Course flows well and with three sets of tees can cater to most skill levels. The whites that I played are definitely geared toward more experienced players with 300' distance and accuracy.
Couple this course with the nearby Grassman at West Branch State Park, and any golfer would have plenty of fun playing in the woods.
