I rate this course 5 out of 5 stars.

Pros
- Plenty of parking and pavilions for large groups
- The map is put together very well and in great detail
- 3 tees per hole
- Almost every tee is concrete and well maintained
- Signs on the tees are simply amazing! Whoever created these put some serious effort into making this a premium course.
- The Basket are well labeled and in great shape
- The flow is fantastic considering that this is a 10K foot course with hole #18 ending at hole #1. You will spend a lot of time tee’ing out and backtracking a hundred feet or so to the next tee but I do not consider this a con because the fairways do not overlap and the land was utilized to it’s fullest. Hole’s with a bit of a walk are #2 to #3, #10 to #11, #11 to #12 & #16 to #17.
- No walking paths so you wont be bothered by hikers and bikers! It’s just disc golfers in their element.
- Low disc golfing traffic both times I was there
- Bathrooms are on the premises but I did not investigate them
- Very clean with plenty of trashcans
- No vandalism
- Upkeep is grade A! People work hard to keep the fairways clear and the grass cut
- Extreme Distance with intense elevation changes
- There is a large and very nice public pool

Cons
- Next tee signs. Could use a few more even though the map is very accurately made.
- Could use more benches
- Could use a concrete tee for #14 because the downward grade of the natural tee could cause a bad stumble
- This course could be considered ‘too wide open’ for those that need the intricate throws through thick woods
- There are a few Blue/White tee signs that need updated. It appears that some of the Blue tee signs were added after the course was initially installed. If you play Blue tees like me, keep a copy of the map with you because you may be playing from the White tee even though it’s labeled Blue on the tee itself.

Other Thoughts
- This is a challenging course no matter your level of expertise.
- Exercise? HA, you’ll feel the burn playing this course.
- Most challenging hole is #15. Wide open to start then turns into a small uphill tunnel alley.
- Favorite hole is #14. This hole is INSANE!! You throw off the top of a huge hill out into a massive open area. You can choose any type of throw you and really experiment with which type of throw is better. I got decent distance off an overstable disc doing a hyzer-flip but I really maxed out my distance using Champ Leopard on a very small S curve right then small fade left, landed about 80’ from the basket for an easy score of 3.
- This phenomenal course is a MUST to play! Worth the trip for sure!

Without a doubt, my favorite course, and the best kept course I have ever played. I live 10 minutes from this course, and have played it a lot. I pretty much learned to play here, which is great since its a fairly difficult course. You open with hole one, which regardless of which Tees you play, is a challenge to par. The blue tees, are insane at this course, longest holes I have ever seen. I play reds now as I have only played for a year or so now, and finally scored +1 after a year of play ...

Without a doubt, my favorite course, and the best kept course I have ever played. I live 10 minutes from this course, and have played it a lot. I pretty much learned to play here, which is great since its a fairly difficult course. You open with hole one, which regardless of which Tees you play, is a challenge to par.

The blue tees, are insane at this course, longest holes I have ever seen. I play reds now as I have only played for a year or so now, and finally scored +1 after a year of playing those tees.

Great mix of holes, mostly open, with a handful of heavily wooded holes. Hope you have a lot of range because the back 9 can produce some long drives. Great mix of accuracy and distance holes. Great for lefties and righties alike!

Hole 17 is the highlight of this course however, It is quite the hike just to get their and once you do you are throwing against the side of a steep hill, with trees lining either side. throw to the left, and your OB over the road, throw right, and it rolls ridiculously far downhill, You must play this hole careful, or risk blowing your entire round at the end!

We average about 75 minutes on this course (2 ametuer players)

Nice course but I’m really surprised it ranks THIS highly in Ohio. The front 9 has some cool holes: Pretty views of the park. Nice mix of open and tight lanes. The back 9 is relatively forgettable, with the exception of the tunnel shot on 17. Multiple tee pads are nice. Small pads, but it’s cool to have the options. A lot of commenters rave about how this course is big. I feel like a B- is accurate for the course but I gave it a C+ to try and counteract all these A’s and A ...

Nice course but I’m really surprised it ranks THIS highly in Ohio.

The front 9 has some cool holes: Pretty views of the park. Nice mix of open and tight lanes.

The back 9 is relatively forgettable, with the exception of the tunnel shot on 17.

Multiple tee pads are nice. Small pads, but it’s cool to have the options. A lot of commenters rave about how this course is big. I feel like a B- is accurate for the course but I gave it a C+ to try and counteract all these A’s and A+’s who picked it because it was “big”. Yes it’s big, but does “big” alone make it an A or A+ course?

Not for me.

Again: nice park & course, all things considered, but top 5 in Ohio? Ehhhh nah.

BRUTAL! Long! Hilly! You will be worn out after this round. Too much walking b/t tees on the back 9. Didn’t like the set up especially in retrospect of the tee placements for the area provided. Not much finesse needed on the back. A lot of long rip shots on the back. A few birdie runs at the beginning of the front right after the long #1 hole. Only double while playing #14 as is recommended by others to throw from the long tee “Top of the World”. On the signature hole #17 it is advised t ...

Only double while playing #14 as is recommended by others to throw from the long tee “Top of the World”.
On the signature hole #17 it is advised to go the route of the ultra strait LASER for a righty b/c there’s no room for error trying any sort of hyzer. Did not like the back 9 besides #17. A lot of 2 & 3 shots per hole in nothing but open, hilly fields. Not a technical course of any kind.
The wooded holes on the front are cool & there are birdies to be had there.
Once is enough to fit in this course way out in the middle of nowhere.
