The Squeeze

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 2, 2023 Played the course:once

Pros:

- Well maintained park
- Course infrastructure in working order
- A couple of par 4 holes which is almost unheard of for courses under 18 holes
- Very nice stream that runs through the course that challenges you without losing discs
- Lots of golf squeezed into tight space
- Fun ace runs to be had

Cons:

- Strange layout has you walk back and for the first 5 holes
- Holes 3-5 are open and right on top of each other
- Not enough obstacles for my taste
- Layout is hard to follow without Udisc or a map
- Lots of other park users clogging up fairways and baskets
- Not enough punishment for bad throws
- Very small parking area and no bathrooms

Other Thoughts:

Overall a fun little introductory course or ace run place for locals and course baggers. Although there were a few par 4 holes they are on the shorter side and very birdie able. Worth a stop if you're close by.

2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 9, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

Well maintained grass park
A nice variety of shots
Nice Tee Boxes & Signs
Made good use of space

Cons:

Hard to follow without map
First 6 holes are spread out and jumpy


Other Thoughts:

This is a short course that makes good use of space and obstacles. Mandos and OB help make even the easier holes a problem if you shank your shot. Hole #1 and #10 are very tricky with lots of trees which I found fun as it makes you throw a perfect shot. The river can come into play but was low and slow enough that disc retrieval is easy.

Enjoyable Twelve Hole Course Gets Lots of Play! 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 16, 2015 Played the course:once

Pros:

The Dry Creek Trail Park is a narrow little park which is tucked in between the road and house on the backside. The small creek runs the length of the park and helps provides some challenge and also the trees along it's banks provides shade on hot summer days.

The course has nice amenities. The concrete pads are textured and are shaped so that you always know which way the hole is. That is you're throwing towards the more narrow end of the pad. The Discatchers are in good shape and most have the hole number on top. The tee signs are really nice and clear with hole #, Par, distance and route to the hole. The pars here more or less based for middle school aged players. Either accept that and go for those Eagles or just play everything as a Par three.

The course begins in the middle of the park near the play area. Some fun little throws to be had here.
# 10 was a short little throw which crossed the creek.

Then # 11 playing from an elevated tee, has you throwing a little hyser to the basket down below. Then you finish with # 12 and follow the little trail and cross the rocks that lead over the creek. I wonder what these rocks would like in January? Actually, I was wondering what this creek would be like in the spring? Is there enough water then to actually be hazardous?

Cons:

There is a long walk between a couple of holes but I prefer that to having filler holes in between.

I think some of the holes have been slightly changed so the signs are not exactly right but the course is fairly small and easy to navigate, especially with the on-line map.

Other Thoughts:

As I was finishing my round, a group of eight was hurrying to finish before dark. Their group consisted of three adult men, a adult lady and four elementary girls. I thought, how cool, to see a group like that out enjoying themselves on one of our disc golf courses. That's what I like about Dry Creek Trail Course, it's a fun and challenging enough course for most of us recreational type players but yet this group of total novices can be out here playing and having a great time.

Nice neighborhood course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Jun 12, 2010 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Parking close to hole #1, Large textured concrete pads, new baskets, nice tee signs, kiosk with course layout, easy to navigate, never crowded(w/DG players), dog friendly, restrooms on-site.

Cons:

Walk between holes is longer than usual, small parking lot, path runs along course that is occupied by non DGr's, safety issues with hole#1 being next to a playground.

Other Thoughts:

This is a short nine hole course that is laid out on a narrow strip of land between a creek and houses on the other. There are plenty of next tee signs but if you have trouble just follow the path 1-4 and back down the path5-9, you can't go wrong. This trail/park gets lots of foot traffic who are unaware of the sport, be careful. The course layout offers some long and narrow drives, a couple of mandos, O.B., water hazards and short technical throws. Overall this is definitely not a must play course, but for the beginner, intermediate, local and family oriented DG'r you can't beat it.
There is lighting along the path and you can practice your putting after dark!

dry creek 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:May 23, 2008 Played the course:never

Pros:

not crowded, a good developmental course for beginner and intermediate players.

Cons:

some houses come into play on some holes. no bathrooms.

Other Thoughts:

this is a true links course. a lot of walking between holes so it will feel like the longest nine holes youve ever played. it still is well designed with the terrain that this course has to offer, a flat, narrow strip of land between a creek and housing. this is the type of course every disc golf community needs, a place where beginner and intermediate players can go to and not feel overwhelmed or pressured by big design. i wouldnt recommend this course for a travelling pro, but family groups and casual players will like this course.
