Muddy Run Park closes at sunset, which is different than dusk. Be sure to make note of when sunset is if you plan to tee off later in the day. It will take roughly 2 hours for a typical group of advanced golfers to play the gold layout. Please respect all park rules.

NOTE FOR SPRING: The grass on 16-18 will be mowed around Memorial Day. It can be hard to find a disc in May before it gets mowed.

At 9,243 feet from the gold tees, and with a total elevation change of 700+ feet, this course has every challenge an upper level player could want. Narrow fairways. Protected greens. Challenging footing. And risk/reward decisions on almost every hole.
