Love this course! Almost perfect just need longer pads! Don't think they're even regulation length. Variety of shots, some elevation changes. A side armer's dream! Hole 9 is the signature hole at this course, it's kinda tricky.......

I like this course because it has every shot and there are some birdie holes and most par holes require a high level of skill to get. Good baskets and and concrete tees. In a state park it almost always has a private course feel because of little traffic. I believe there is a league here during the summer and there are tournaments here throughout the year. Really a great place to put a course. Right off a beach and out in BFE. Course could use some benches and trash receptacles around the teeing areas.

Amazing course. The hole diversity makes you have precision drives along with flex shots. Great mixture of wooded and open holes. Only slight downsides are the thick brush, awkward tee angles, and the stupid ponds on hole 9. Aside, this course is always a great challenge.

Great course in general but I must agree with the others. The pads are a bit small.

Great location, beautiful scenery, no crowds, good mix of open and technical holes, love it except for hole 9 :D Tee pads could be lengthened and could use a few more benches and trash cans. Oh and bring your wind discs because it tends to get really gusty on the open holes by the lake.

Good course layout with good variety and no glaring flaws. Could be maintained more frequently, but solid other than that. It is generally a good idea to skip hole nine as the basket is on a peninsula.

first time playing this course after walking it in 2010 with my mother when she played disc girls gone wild i really liked it a lot. very open not a super long course. needs some more trash cans and benches here and there. only came across three trash cans and one bench. but still i really like this course very peaceful when there is no one around.

Needs longer pads, 6' of cement just isn't enough. To make matters worse larger stones were put right behind them

I really liked this course. It's a bit of a drive from Lansing, but it was nice to play something different. The pads are super short, which is kind of a pain if you're trying to run up to a longer pin. There are some nice elevation changes. The course is technical with a couple open holes at the beginning and end. Some long. Some short. It's a nice variety. I definitely recommend checking it out.

Nice course, wide open but a lefty/forehand course for sure. Hosts the Disc Girls Gone Wild tournament every year, one of the best tournaments ever.

This is probably the best course I've ever been to. Most all holes are big and open with lots of room to throw. Also all holes except maybe 2 or 3 are over 300 ft long. Several water hazards and very thick woods all around you so your gonna want to bring your A game and some discs you don't care about cause losing a disc is almost a garuntee here. Hole 9 is a very tough holeand goes way uphill sort of to the left then goes steep downhill sharp left onto a sort of peninsula about 75ft long but on ...

Very cool scenic course, definitely some interesting shots you can play off the tee at this course. Tees were pretty short. Loved the peninsula basket, made for a very hard hole!

Appears to be maintained by a group that refers to themselves at "The Friends." My best guess is some sort of extremist Hippy faction. This course is definitly as Flannigan as a course can get. Heres to you Flanzo!

Well ill start with the fact that the course was completely muddy and soaked. However it is a nice shorter style course with some unique holes. 5353 feet in course distance. Fair mix of open and wooded holes. hole 9 is the signature hole. 391 feet downhill to basket location that looks like a peninsula with water about 10 feet on either side of the basket. Definitley like the course and would put it on a must play list. not many other courses nearby.

Amazing course, there is pretty much something for everyone. From open, big arm cannon holes to tight and technical holes, flat, smooth shots to rolling hills. Playing this course will make you a better player. The only real complaints I have are that there's a lot of locations for casual water which can start to stink and that being near water, you deal with some heavier winds than you might at other courses.

This was my second time playing the course. The rough is very rough and if you miss the fairway the rough will cause a longer search. I lost my first drive but I also found a disc on hole 1 so ill take a missing yellow/green destroyer over a found tyedye Orc. The tee pads are about 1 ½ steps long which is about 1½ steps too little. There is a downed tree right in the middle of hole 5 which makes it extremely difficult and needs to be taken care of. Most of the bomber holes seem to be a ...

Legendary at Sleepy Hollow State Park is a near perfect 18 hole disc golf venue. It may not be the best disc golf course in Michigan but ‘Sleepy should be considered among them. If you have not played it I’d suggest making a 2022 summer bucket list destination visit. Great camping is conveniently located adjacent to #16 pin. Featuring a myriad of state park activities like swimming, horseback riding, kayaking, fishing the family cannot miss.
Legendary, in of itself as a disc track has eve ...

This course is very well groomed, has good lengths and a nice variety of shots. The day I came here was during a wind storm so a couple discs were lost in the tall grass, but that's all part of the game. Hole nine is a VERY SCARY (in a good way) fairway and possibly the most unique I've seen.

Very good, very clean course. Nice balance of left/right, short/long holes. Playing in the winter is nice because the rough can be REALLY rough in the summer, and the water hazards are slightly less hazardous with 4" of ice on top.

I LOVE this course and play it regularly. Great layout and mix of shots. Some open, some wooded, some perfect for backhand, some perfect for sidearm, and some even great for overhand. Great use of elevation. Never seen it crowded. Could use a few arrows to direct newbies between some of the baskets and tees. Hole 9 is the signature, playing up onto a narrow peninsula, and has claimed more than its fair share of discs. They recently added more garbage bins.

Very nice course. I'm not a fan of the short pads but everything else was pretty decent. The course really seemed well thought out and I liked the basket placements a lot. Could use more trash containers. High winds made for tricky play my first time here. Looking forward to playing here again someday.

This course needs attention! Baskets are good and the tee pads are nice. Mowing the course is great, But the second you go off the fairway at all the rough is tall, thick, and prickly. I found that bringing someone new here is not what you want to do, unless you want to spend all your time in the bushes getting cut up. We lost a disc 5 feet off the fairway. It shouldn’t be that rough and it’s definitely short enough to be family friendly but new players aren’t going to stay in the fairway ...

The course is well maintained & very challenging. There's a good mix of holes for both backhand & forehand shots regardless if you're right or left handed. I like the fact that there are some wide open shots as well as tight tricky shots where the shape of your shot means everything. My only dislike is the fact that the tee pads are fairly short. I know on shorter holes having a big tee pad may not be necessary but I like to take the same walk up on the tee pad regardless of the power I put into my throw.

Very good and very challenging at the same time. Everytime I come here I always find myself trying to find a new shot and trying to make myself better. This is what disc golf is all about. On another note bring food to cook on the grill and when you are done disc golfing enjoy a brat and take a dip in the lake!

It's a nice course, but it could be maintained better. Every round I've ever shot here has ended up with at least one lost disc. Now I remember why I only show up here once a year.

I did not get the wow factor that I thought I would get after reading the reviews. The couse is very nice and has a great flow to it. Its mostly a bit long for the new or intermediate arms like mine. I loved 9 unlike many others and did get the wow from it, and 17 with a right sloping turn with an extreme left sloping fairway the whole way was awsome as well. b- is above avg. but being long, many holes basically out in the field, and lack of wow factor made for a slightly dissapoiting trip for me. All in all nice though.

Sleepy Hollow is a great course that seems to play very technical. In a State Park so you will need the 10 dollar sticker to enter the park to disc. When I played it was EXTRRMELY windy on any hole near Lake Ovid. Farelly good routing although some pads are a little close to some baskets. Very lose disc trendy too. This course treats you bad if you dont land in the fairway. Definatly for the more experienced disc golfer as lines are tight and there are hazards everywhere. This course was groomed ...

Pros:
- Cement Tee Pads
- Fairways open and mostly fair
Cons:
- Cost $$ To Park
Course Description:
- Wooded
- Technical
Overall Impression:
An interesting course and use of the property. A combination of both wooded holes with tough lines and open holes where you can throw. While I like courses that have both woods and open holes, some of the holes have tough, if not borderline impossible lines that have to be hit to score. If you don't like traditional Michigan ...
