Very long links style course requiring MANY 300+ shots to score. Fairly open, manicured park but plays very tight with OB (road) and river in play on at least half the holes. Even the experienced won't play for fear of losing discs in river. I lost 3 my last round there. 1 hole requires 200 ft shot over river. Site of 2006 PDGA World Championship. B only because it is too long for me.

Confusing layout; you are often doubling back and cutting across other holes. Course does not stay very well manicured. Also not in a great part of town... OB plays VERY tight on many holes.

This is a great course. It has a couple good bombs, but they still need to be controlled throws. The rest is some pretty hazardous stuff. LOTS of water and OB! Really fun for the advanced player, and a little more tricky for beginners.

Olmstead can be brutal and your shots have to be dead on. Course plays short and tight. There are a good variety of short and long holes. The course plays between a road and a lake and the width between both at some points are as narrow as 50 yards. 3 holes play tight on water and you def dont want to go for the basket on these bc if you go in the water, you arent retrieving them. The water is over populated with alligator gar. The more i play this course the more i love it. im starting to consider this a home course for me

I enjoy playing Lake O, but it is hard to talk others into meeting there. Playing this course will make you a better player. The water will eat some plastic though.

Tough and fun. I like the challenge but dont get careless or you'll empty your bag in the pond 7,11,15,17,and 18. lots of water and swamps in play. But on the plus side its a beautiful course.

This is a good course. There isn't much room in this park for a disc golf course but they did a good job. The drawbacks are that it is very hard to find you way to the next tees on a few holes if you haven't played there before. The holes are very close together and there are many other things going on around and sometimes through the middle of the holes. Hole 2 crosses a road in the park, and many come very close to a walking path. Other than that, there are many reasons to like this cours ...

Solid course overall, nice and open but very difficult with well placed trees and OB in the way. Obviously the lake is a huge factor on many of the holes. If it weren't for the fact that my bag would be empty after a few rounds I'd play here far more often.

Nature is reclaiming this potentially wonderful course.

Simple layout considering other courses I've played. Difficult to find tee boxes without a map if you're new. Course runs along the water and makes it difficult to keep all of the discs you came with. I put three in the water and only retrieved one which I had to wade in for. Overall, a very enjoyable course though, fairly open with a smattering of trees throughout.

Pros:
* Good mixture of shot types
* A lot of tight, technical, shots
* Lake comes into play on several holes making for challenging up shots
Cons:
* Confusing layout - first-timers bring a guide
* Not located in the greatest of neighborhoods
* Sidewalks, roads, picnic areas all dangerously close. Be careful not to hit someone!
