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 holes, then a good chunk of this course will not be enjoyable for you. (post made 2022).

Rating Grade: B-
As a course itself I give it a B- because it has many interesting holes that are fair, but some of the luck box holes keep it from being any higher. Furthermore, if this was a sanctioned event at the course than my rating would be closer to a C- or lower because it rates very poorly in my experience.

Pros:
- Easy to follow course

- Fairways open and mostly fair
- Ace Run

Cons:
- Some damaged pads
- One damaged baskets
- No parking in the parking lot (park on street and walk in)
- Two water holes that eats discs easily (#4 and #11)

Course Description:
- Wooded
- Deuce or Die
- Technical

Overall Impression:
Pretty Easy Course, this short deuce or die course doesn't require many discs to play and is easy to score compared to many courses. Great place to play for beginners or more advanced players looking to work on up shots in the woods. Biggest issue isn't the course, but its location. It sits on a property next to a party college so there is often some broken glass around some of the holes or small damage to some of the baskets. The people that travel through there USUALLY stay out of the way of the disc golfers, but sometimes you can have some strange interactions in this downtown course. A local group does random doubles on Sundays during the non-snowy months which brings in a good crowd and fun time (post made 2022).

Rating Grade: C-
I give this course a C- mostly due to location, parking and some of the conditions of the course. There has been a lot of work done here in recent years that has kept this place going, and will still be a fun place to play if I need a quick round in and especially the organized Ace Races and Doubles Leagues. It is unfortunate that many of the college residents around the course damage or leave trash on the course. The other reason I give it a C- is because it does have so many short holes, that it doesn't require many discs or shot shapes to play (but the course they have made considering the space is really good).

Overall Impression:
Love this course and finding time each year to make out a trip here to play. The courses 18 hole layout is a combination of open holes with you entering in and out of the nearby woods around the toboggan hills. The alternate holes are all wooded, and while some of them are less than desirable, the course plays really well both in flow and variety in difficulty. Amateurs can enjoy a challenging course and higher level players can test their skills a little more through the demanding tee shots and basket placements. It makes great use of elevation and with multiple basket location, it can really increase the difficulty of the course when needed.

Rating Grade: A-
There are three reasons it doesn't get a higher score than an A- even though I love this course. First, is the alternate holes (which are often included for tournaments) are not all great. One or two have incorrect distances on the tee sign, and a couple others have really unfair or gimmicky lines to throw around/through. The course is also greatly improved in tournament layout rather than its standard layout (Like hole 1 being moved around the telephone pole into a par 4/5 on the other side of the tree line in the field behind the tee pad of 2. Another great change is throwing from hole 10s tee pad to 11's basket with added OB which requires a control of power and placement to score well on). A few of the baskets are also missing tee signs together, but with UDisc this is not an issue.

Pros:
- Free Parking
- Cement Tee Pads
- Both Long and Short Holes
- Both Wooded and Open Holes

Cons:
- Plays through a public park
- One tee pad is shared with two holes

Course Description:
- Mostly Open, Some Wooded
- Scorable

Overall Impression:
This is a great course for both beginners and more advanced players. The course hosts a variety of both longer open holes and shorter wooded holes. The course is scorable overall, with a few tough holes. The course plays through the park and has some side walks throughout the course which add extra OB to increase the difficulty if you choose to play that way.

Rating Grade: B
This is a good solid course that doesn't really have many flaws, but doesn't live up to some of my expectations of a course I think should receive a higher score. The longer holes are relatively easier, having little barrier or OB to contend with unless you shank left or right or land on the skinny OB sidewalk. There is also a pad shared between two holes (Holes #8 and #17) which are marked backwards on the tee sign. The wooded holes are also a little shorter than what I wish they were since the park uses so much space for the open big holes (mostly on the front 9 holes of the course). Some added OB for tournaments makes the course play as a higher score than this, but as is casually is a solid provided round of golf.
