This is my "home" course and I could not be more thankful! During the spring and summer I am here at least once a week. Combining technical skill, distance and fortitude, this course is definitely the best one I have played! The guys who take care of the course do a great job. They just replaced a majority of the signs and they look great. This is, of course, a very difficult course, but that's part of the fun!

Love this 27 basket course with 2 set of tees & at least 2 basket positions on every hole. It will test your accuracy in the woods. Some of them have tight and narrow fairways. Others aren't as tight, but plays along the creek on one side which is OB. Also there's always a risk of getting your discs caught up in the cedar trees, so if it's above 2 meters, then that disc is considered OB. Always very well-maintained...to my liking since I get to throw my forehand rollers pretty often here.

I have family in the DC area, so whenever I go to visit, I duck out for a bit to go play this course. It is magnificent. I love how each 9 wraps back around to the parking lot so you can really play them in any order depending on how busy the course is.

There's a fantastic variety of shots here and the multiple pin locations make for so much replay it'll make your head spin. The guys who take care of the course obviously put a lot of love into it and the locals are friendly. If you're in the DC/Baltimore area, you've got to check it out.

What a great course! It costs $3 to enter the park and it wlas worth every penny. The 27 hole layout offers everything a discerning disc golfer desires. Each nine hole loop ends back at the parking lot wich is convenient. The course is not righty biased given the amount of straight on and dogleg right lines. The front nine plays down towards a creek and trouble abounds e everywhere. The middle nine was the funniest in my opinion as it weaves in and out of the woods and open space. The bac ...

Reason for not A: Without map, navigation can be tricky with crisscrossing holes. A few long fairways with <10ft gaps for >50ft, very challenging but fun course.

A terrific course. Played here when I lived in DC -- a short drive from the city, and a *beautiful* setting. Great variety of holes, some wooded, some open, minor elevation, multiple tee pads - a must play!

Great course well maintained and easy to navigate. Very long and challenging. Nice concrete tee pads. Score cards are provided. Also, each new 9 holes starts from central point that makes trips to car convenient.

Great course, one of the best in Maryland. Multiple sets of tees and baskets on each hole and 27 total holes. The course is located in a great park and has a professional feel. The entire course is mostly forested but with little undergrowth and some open spots. Lots of elevation changes and various distances throughout the course. Some of the tee pads could use some improvement but I've seen worse.

27 holes. lot of variety. Nothing too short nor too long. OB creek comes into play on 4 holes. Signature Cedars. #6 is tight.

Home course, always challenging, there is room to excel on holes but with OBs dominant in the front and middle nines, a hole can get out of control. Love it, recommend it to anyone who can make it there

Good course, lots of diversity. Partially wooded and partially open at times. They do a good job here. Was my favorite course in the area till I played with some of the regulars. Watch out for the douchebags. There are some guys who think they own this course. Last time I went a guy harassed me and my group for nine holes insisting we had taken one of his discs when we had not. We all dumped out our bags to prove it but this guy just would not give up. Found him in the parking lot later trying t ...

This course is extremely challenging for any skill level. To score well one must be lucky or extremely smart with each throw. LOTS of OB and Water hazard. Small creek winding through the course. Heavily wooded, open, long, and short holes. This course offers a variety layouts. The park is really clean. There are no trash cans and cleaning up after oneself and others is highly encouraged. Many holes have low hanging cedar trees that will either snatch a disc and keep it or stop it where it is. Very impressive 27 hole course. When played from long tees to long baskets can take 4-5 hours.

Great course with some fun shots in a beautiful park. $5 for out of state residents and $3 for MD residents. Most of the tee pads are concrete; however some are pavers and uneven, especially on the pro tees. The course has lots of variety and is mostly open. Very few spots have really tight shots, but there are some to keep it interesting. Biggest complaint is that the distances between the hole signs and scorecards are drastically different. Would have liked the course more if there were more ...

This course was great, loved playing 27 holes. Lay out and next tee signs are needed as I kept asking locals where to go. Nice crowd, challenging. I lost a white beast innova off hole 3 to the far left. love to get it back as it is about 10 years old and a fav to throw. hit me up if you find it.

Beautiful course, fairly well marked, and excellently laid out. A few of the wooded holes seemed to have no clear route to the basket, which is why I gave it the -A. Maybe take out a couple small trees to define a route? Other than that one small criticism, I loved this place. This is a flatlander ass kicker. Come ready to hike the hills! Well done Maryland.

This is the best course in the area. Multiple tee pads for 27 holes make it a solid choice for all skill levels. Some say the course favors the LHBH/RHFH throwers but as a lefty... I don't care. Trees will break your heart on this course BUT, I keep coming back to get better. I've played probably 50 rounds here and everyone I've met on the course has been pretty easy going.

This course is in a beautiful setting in a state park entirely in the woods. Very well manicured course, with three sets of tees on most holes and two baskets to choose from. The design is magnificent. Nicely defined fairways with some being tight and technical. Nice gentle rolling hills with a creek that comes into play on about a third of the course. Shot shaping is a must and a few holes where bombing a drive is worth the risk. The signature hole 10 and hole 14 are gems as par 4s. Over ...

This is the best course in the DMV due to a solid local group of discers who focus on upkeep and maintenance. With multiple tee pads to accommodate different skill levels and variable pin placements to keep the course ever changing while offering three nine hole loops which rotate back to the parking lot for replenishment of water, change of clothes, etc, the course is a grinder physically and mentally while demanding every shot from every angle and every disc your bag can carry.

Loved playing this course for the first time this year. Will definitely be back. Loved the variety of shots and the 27 holes split into 3 separate 9's gives a ton of flexibility.

This is my home course. Having a course of this caliber 10 minutes a way has spoiled me. I have a hard time forcing myself to go anywhere else except to compete. Unless your a local (and maybe even then) you'll have a different course to play every time. The baskets rotate on most holes between 3 pin positions and there are 2 to 3 tees on each hole. Each loop has its own theme. Front 9 is tighter and wooded for the most part. The back is open with a little more distance and the fastest playing. ...

It took me a while to get to Seneca, but I was resolved to check it out by the end of 2020 even if I had to go alone. I luckily was able to get a friend to come along to play the whole 27 holes (which, can I just say that 27 holes is such a great number, I often want more after 18). The course is divided up into three 9 hole loops that start and end at the parking lot, making it easy to drop off jackets/pick up water from the car. This also allows you to play them whichever order you like (yeste ...

Fantastic 27-hole course which plays in a large "disc golf only" section of a big state park. The course itself is predominately wooded and stretches across several rolling hills with many shots facing slight changes in elevation. The course is wonderfully maintained with beautiful grassy fairways. There are 4 tees and 3 basket locations for almost every hole allowing you to make the course as easy or hard as you wish. Very scenic with tee shots requiring you to maintain your line through the tr ...
