Dry Creek is a fantastic course located just outside of Charlotte in Monroe, NC. While not officially recognized by the CDGC, this course is "home" to many Charlotte locals and has a very dedicated team of volunteers that keep the course in fantastic shape despite tough to manage muddy areas and other natural hurdles.

The course design has changed over time and more changes are coming in the future once the College additions have been completed. There is a good mix of short and long holes. Par 3s, 4s, and 5s depending on which layout you play. There are also short pads on most holes if you are looking for a quick round.

One of the most unique things about Dry Creek is the abundance of open holes which are very scarce in the Charlotte scene. Holes 2-8,15,16 are all "open" which creates a fun change of pace.

The attention to detail on this course is very good. Course designers Stan McDaniel and David Wheeler have done a terrific job of spreading mulch on greens, fairways, and tee boxes with the assistance of many volunteers. The course looks great and it is only getting better.

There are a few temporary cons for this course. Currently there are a few natural teepees which will hopefully be poured concrete by Fall. There are also a few changes on the course due to construction that will hopefully go back to a more original layout once the temporary parking lot isn't being used.

There are a few areas where additional directional signs would be very useful.

Tee signs need to be upgraded.

Overall, Dry Creek is a great course and one of my personal favorites in Charlotte. There is a great mix of holes and the course is fun for everyone from beginners to seasoned pros. Give it a shot and you won't be disappointed!

Course is a mixture of open and wooded holes.
Navigation is fairly easy, baskets are marked in the direction of the next tee(s) and some friendly markers are tacked up close to the basket.
I loved the design of the course. It uses the lay of the land and natural obstacles to enhance the challenge of the course.
Baskets are all in good shape (think they were Discatchers).
The longs add some challenge, but have not played them yet.
The woods are thick, like natural OB. Often a throw into the woods required a lay up just to get out.
The Shorts are a good test of skill for advanced players, but not advanced/advanced players - you can play the longs.
Bugs/mosquitoes were not a problem while we were there.
Did not see any poison ivy or poison oak.
No water holes, so no risk of dunking your disc.
Concrete tees, the short tees are short in length and the long tees are long.

I think the design favors a RHBH overall but a decent mix of shots.
No benches, tee signs are very small and some are missing.
Was a significant challenge to find the course on the campus and then had to wander around a bit to find the first tee.
The open holes are HOT. This isn't a revelation, just a reminder to bring some sunscreen.
I have lost discs in the grass when it got high and have almost lost discs in the woods because it is thick and the ground cover is deep - be forewarned.

My son and I played this course the first time because it's the highest-rated course in the Waxhaw area. It did not disappoint.
We have a great time, because it's not too hard for us and not Beginner-easy either. Fantastic mix of fun holes and challenges. The one Par 4 just kicks my biscuits every time I play it and I still have a blast.
Highly recommended!!

Starting and finishing in the forest on the back side of the community college campus, I couldn't find Dry Creek the first time I went looking. Yesterday, I had better precise directions and found it easily, at least partially due to the good course overview sign at the head of the well graveled trail leading into the forest to the course. Other signage is good, even very good, imparting more than adequate textual and graphic information. Crude, but efficient directional signs help to find the next tee(s). As this course obviously gets lots of well deserved play, most transitions are visually evident, though the signs denoting routes to long and short tees are greatly helpful, as well as time and energy saving.
Nineteen DISCatcher baskets, including an excellently placed and labeled practice basket. Good/very good concrete pads. Picnic tables spread throughout the course. Though some reviewers lament the lack of restrooms and trash cans, there are plenty of secluded woods in which to be a bear, and if you can carry it in, you can carry it out.
Dry Creek does indeed offer a variety of distances, directions, and foliage densities. Though there is little elevation differential within the land, the designers do well utilize the slight slopes available. And Number 6 does feature an acutely elevated basket.
One of the most positive features of Dry Creek is the differentials between Red and Gold pad positions. They are not merely slightly longer/shorter versions of one another. They are positioned and placed, so that they are wholly different holes, with admirably accurate par assignations. With the differential in overall Par schematics (55 and 60), I may actually attempt the Gold layout the next time I play Dry Creek. And I shall play it again. This is an enjoyable, challenging layout that will require a variety of shots, in terms of distance and direction. It is a pretty and picturesque setting. The forested holes are a nice walk in the woods, with ample, well defined fairways with little or no overgrown brush and briers on the sides. The open holes offer visual vistas, with well mown grass and pretty yellow flowers, as well as well utilized trees and tree lines which define fairways and greens. It will be interesting to see if during the Summer, when school's not in session, if it remains so well mown, or be let go, as Guilford Meadows at Guilford College generally is. The course was completely dry and totally navigable yesterday, but I could see areas of potential muddiness or swampiness, as mentioned by others. But there are many well placed, large flat stones, big square mats and gravel beds to help alleviate that.

Not much at all to cry about here. The excellent little tee signs are a bit small for someone with less than good vision. It would probably be good if the sign designers could color code the signs to coincide with the tee's color designation. Laid onto small pieces of double thick poster board, the signs are easily stealable, but also should be easily replaceable, quickly and at very little cost. I was happy to note that all signs were in place at the time of my round. The transition between Holes 15 and 16, I think it is, could use a directional sign. There are two visually equal ways to go and I chose the route to the green, rather than the tees. Take the path leading left.
Though not necessarily a con for most, the campus, including the course, is demonstrably designated as a tobacco free zone. I'm always adversely amused when public sector property in North Carolina is so posted, since tobacco was one of the two cash crops that built this country and particularly this state.

Kudos and gratitude to the designers and to the maintainers.

Ever since Dry Creek lost the old holes 1, 2, 17, & 18 - the course has been ever evolving. Every so often, enough changes occur that I feel the need to update my review, and each time I have basically completely rewritten my review (This is now the fifth version of this review.) The course features DISCatcher baskets, concrete tee pads (some are still gravel at the time of this review), and new, better detailed tee signs. Throughout every version of the course I have played, it is always been well maintained - and the people maintaining/designing the course have done an incredible job making such a treat for people to play!

Over the years that I have played this course, it has undergone substantial changes, but through all that time has an almost private course feel. It has also managed to maintain its incredible blend of open and wooded holes. Of all the courses I have played in the greater Charlotte area, and even the entire state of NC, I don't think I could name a course that manages to maintain that balance so well. While there are some huge bombs out in the fields, they all have actual obstacles in the fairway that really require thoughtful tee shots if seeking a birdie. The course also features incredible wooded holes that feature a premium on accuracy with a decisions to be made on placement vs distance.

Dry Creek manages to blend open holes and wooded holes really well, with almost a private course feel. But the superb hole design is really the major highlight of Dry Creek. There are only a few open courses in the Charlotte area, and compared to some of those courses Dry Creek really gets it right. But you're not limited to long bombs over open holes, the wooded holes are there to keep the round exciting, and it mixes it up by moving in-and-out of the woods. While some of the red tees follow the formula of straight lines to the basket, all of the open holes are not just open field shots. There are always some sort of obstruction you need to avoid. On the long tees, if you have a really big arm, you can really let your disc rip out over much of this and hyzer back into the fairway.

Dry Creek features two distinct layouts, with so much difference between the two - that playing both layouts in a single day will feel like playing two completely different courses. With many holes having different fairways, different tee pads, different pin locations, or some combination of the three.

The first couple times I played here, I noticed how much water the course collects. It is literally a sponge after the rain, and it seems to hold on to the water for a few days. However, when the course is dry, you're gonna have a blast. It's still fun wet, but nobody likes wet socks! (I haven't been by after much rain recently, so I can only assume this is all still true.)

There aren't restrooms or water fountains, at least that I know of. So make sure you bring some extra water and empty your tank before heading over.

If you fire off your discs like a sprinkler, there is some chance for lost discs, especially if it's a particularly windy day.

The new holes definitely need some time to wear in and even out, but I am sure that is going to happen over time. A few places still need concrete tees poured and possibly a few stumps removed.

Holes 17 & 18 on the Red course feel a bit hard still compared to the rest of the course, to where they could possibly use short tees, or a different Par ratings, but Hole 1 is the only hole left on the Gold course that feels truly out of place. And I have heard that Hole 1 will likely be redesigned in the future though, so that isn't an issue.

Honestly, most of the other Cons that I have listed seem to have been resolved over the years. The course has new tee signs, new benches, and have more consistent difficulties between the layouts.

While I originally I rated Dry Creek as a flat 3.0, and then bumped it up to a 3.5 after playing the course dry and checking out the long tees, the course feels like it deserved a 4.0 after I played the most recent iteration of it! There is still a bit of work to really polish the course up, but I have know doubt the incredible people working on this course will get this taken care of.

This course always reminds me how much fun disc golf is, and really pumps me up. I really enjoy the environment changes, and hope the course continues to improve. There isn't much elevation to be had, which I would consider a con usually, but the varied foliage and two elevated baskets made up for this in my opinion. The best part of this course is that there is still room for growth and improvement. While Dry Creek has been one of my favorite courses since I first played it, I think there is a real possibility that it begins to be talked about as a premier course in the State of NC if it continues to grow & improve the way it has been these past few years.

Favorite Gold Holes: 3, 6, 7, 18

Tremendous variety. Open shots, wooded shots, rights, lefts, short & long, this course was a joy to play. The design is well thought out and the lack of crowding made it even more fun. Had no issues navigating.

No bathroom and if hills are your thing there aren't any to be had here.

COURSE PLAY:
Dry Creek was recommended to me by a coworker, so this past week I took the drive to Monroe/Indian Trial to try it out. I was very impressed with this course. There were several holes with short and long tees. There was a great mix of left and right turn holes which I found really nice for working on different shots. There course weaves in out out from open plains to heavily wooded holes. The front 9 are longer then the back 9 in the woods but there is an overall good mix of distances throughout the whole course. Hole 5 was one of my favorites because it had an extended pole placing the basket a good 7-8 feet high surrounded by two large tractor tires and cemented in the center. I have to admit, I stopped and did some practice putting on this hole just for the fun of playing this tall basket! There are several open holes where wind can be a factor, be prepared to throw your heavy discs if its windy. The course is pretty wide open with a few narrow holes in the back 9. Brush and weeds are minimal and easy to find OB discs and the course is very well maintained and mowed.

AMENITIES:
Nice concrete tees in great condition. There are picnic tables at each long tee, which I think is an awesome idea for seating. The signs were in great condition, accurate depictions of total distance and where each basket is located. Most of the course has signs to navigate you to the next hole and some included directions to the short tee or the long tee. The course was very VERY clean, little to no trash laying around.

It would be nice if the tee signs showed both tee pads so you knew which one you were actually at. A few times I threw from a long tee unknowingly because there was no indication that I was at the short or long tee based on the tee signs.

If you use a GPS to get the the course, the address is 4209 Old Charlotte Hwy, Indian Trail, NC not Monroe, NC. My GPS showed two 4209's on Old Charlotte Hwy and I thought the Monroe address would have been correct since the course says its in Monroe, but it is in fact right on the border of these two towns. Use the driving instructions on the main Dry Creek course page which mentions the red and white water tower, this guided me straight to the course and where to park.

I highly recommend this course to beginners!

-I love Dry Creek, it's very scenic and has a whole lot of variety throughout the course. The course is perfect for what it was designed for. It's pretty challenging, it has some very hard holes. No real gimmes here. The course is at South Piedmont Community College so this isn't a park course.
-Very unique! I love the variety on this course. There is some elevation, not a lot but a decent amount. The elevated basket on hole 5 was super cool on the tires leaving a very difficult putt. A lot of different shaped fairways on this course here, straight, left, right. It's well evened out. Lengths range from 176 to 648 feet long.
-The par 4's are all very challenging holes. There are four on this course. Hole 5 was my favorite hole. It's around 550' with OB all around the right side as well as the left with small trees in the middle of the fairway. Definitely requires a small hyzer about 300 feet to clear the trees and OB to the left. The second shot, your goal is to get as close to the basket as you can since it is elevated on two tires. Hole 9 is the hardest hole on the course by far. The OB is hard to avoid especially with the trees. The hole is 648' long. You want to stay away from the small trees on this hole as well and avoid the OB to the left side. It's right in front of you at one point about 360' from the tee. You want to stay away from the trees to the right. #14 is the shortest par 4 on the course, but it's very tight and very punishing. I can't see anyone throwing a driver because the woods are pretty dense. The disc (preferably a mid range) should turn very slightly to the left, leaving a second shot that should go right. The basket is out in the open. #15 is very tricky as well. It's open for maybe 275' and then, about 100 feet it's slightly wooded and you go back out into the open. It's pretty hard to stay in the fairway if you want to go long. This is a hard 3 to get on this hole.
-The wooded holes are not quite as long as the open holes. The wooded holes require more accuracy. Hole 17 is the perfect example here. It's about 275' long. But has two routes. I highly recommend the one to the right because it's much wider. The route on the left is the risk and reward kind of thing. It's much more narrow but if you go threw it cleanly, a birdie will come more easily while the right route has a sharp left turn. For the distance on this hole, it's a very hard 2. Same with #14. It's an S shaped fairway that goes out into the open. I can't see this hole being birdied often. It demands two clean shots that clear the woods. Not overly difficult but can be very hard to even par this hole.
-Dual sets of tees on almost every hole. In the CAC we played the longs except on 2 and 6. I think #2 is much more challenging from the short tee. It demands a huge hyzer shot around several trees to the left. You want to go big on this hole, the woods are very dense to the left but there are not as bad if you go long. Even a pro would be psyched to birdie this par 3 hole. This hole has an egregiously sharp left turn. The long tee is a dogleg right and around the cluster of trees. Still a hard hole from either tee. #6 isn't a very difficult birdie if you can hyzer without hitting the trees straight ahead. The basket is to the left but it's a blind shot. Go right of the trees on this hole and get a good distance on this hole, it's not a difficult birdie. The long is an easier birdie because it allows a much bigger shot. If you can throw 300+ and throw a slight hyzer 245'. A birdie should come pretty easily. If you play the short tees here, you will have a fun, forgiving round here. The longs are more challenging but can still be pretty unforgiving if you don't go OB. All the OB is in the vegetation, the only holes with OB are 4,5 and 9.
-There are some benches out here. Not on every hole but on some of them.
-Nice concrete tee pads. Appropriate length for the distances on every hole. They are not raised up very high either so my giant run ups are not limited.
-Secluded. I don't think anyone will really be in your way here.
-Next tee arrows on the confusing transitions.

-There are no bathrooms that I could find. There are no trash cans either on any of the holes here.
-The trees. There are so many trees growing. #16 stands out in my mind. It's a medium length par 3. It's pretty reachable but there are trees all to the right of the fairway. Luckily they are pretty low but this will be a problem in several years. Same thing with #9. This hole is just crazy. There is so much OB on this hole and so many trees that are growing. If you land under a tree, you are not getting a birdie on this hole, no chance at all. The OB gets worse after about 360' because it's just straight ahead of the tee. It's hard to avoid if it is in front of you and there are so many trees to the right side that will prevent you from having a good second shot.
-The lost disc potential is pretty high here. This course has a ton of vegetation. Mostly on the front 9. #7 probably has the most here. The hole isn't that long but long enough for me to throw a fairway driver. The rough is really rough on the whole front 9. Whether it is the trees or vegetation.
-#10's tee pad is angled toward the woods. I still birdied it but that doesn't mean the tee needs to face the fairway. It demands a very big hyzer. This is the shortest hole on the course at 176' long and some people throw drivers here. They just didn't do a good job with the tee pad.

-Dry Creek is the perfect course to play if you love variety. It has so many interesting shaped fairways, great greens, and a perfect mix between open and wooded! I suggest you find plenty of time to play this course. It's just very well designed and well put out.
-There are a few signature holes. #5 definitely is a good grip it and rip it par 4. #11 is a super cool downhill dogleg right. I'm surprised that this hole isn't as popular as it should be. It reminded me of #3 at Grand Central Station. It's a short downhill flick shot that turns pretty sharply. #14 is probably the most unique as it is a wooded S shaped fairway hole.
-This course kind of has a Cedarock and Grand Central station feeling. If you like both of those courses, you will LOVE Dry Creek. The open holes had a Cedarock feeling while the wooded holes were more challenging. #14 was exactly like #13 at Grand Central Station. A tight righty flick shot with an S shaped fairway.

A do not miss in the South Charlotte area!

The fellas that designed and maintain the course are out working on the course almost every time I go out to play. Still being less than 2 years young, I feel that some of the issued folks have in other reviews will be handled in time.

The course offers variety! What a concept! Dry Creek offers the opportunity to work on your short game, long game, sidearms as you will need an array of shots to score well. The rough is rough in places. I feel that for the most part- good shots and smart playing are rewarded. I heard that new signs will be put up in the next few days- so that's a plus. Gravel was spread on most of the long, wet transitions so it will make playing the course when it's wet much easier.
Even though this course is a bit of a haul for me, I will continue to play at Dry Creek. It's well worth checking out if you are in the area.

Some longish transitions
Lack of trash cans
A few more benches would be ideal

Requires distance and creativity
Mentally challenging
Secluded environment
Quality pads
Enough choice holes to make the drive worthy, especially 5 and 9 - new #s.

Confusing signage - needs to be fixed before the CAC
Lack of trash cans (counter point - the lack of trash on the course, despite the lack of trash cans, was remarkable. great job Dry Creek crew!)
A couple long transitions, particularly the walk to 17
This course will test your soul in the summertime - it will be "Africa Hot."

Overall a really cool course to add to the Charlotte mix. Provides the chance to throw a few shots that you don't see on many other tracks in the region.
Unfortunately, if you don't live on the south side, the distance will factor in for frequency of play.

1st thing you need to know is that this is one of the best balanced (woods/open) courses around. Really good NC style wooded holes and really good open holes. The short tees (didn't play) look like good easy fun, bravo. The longs (did play) provide lots of jollies for more experienced hacks like myself. Really good concrete tees, informative signs, signage makes it easy to get around, everything you can ask for. Like others have mentioned, even though it's beside a comm. college the school is pretty much not there. The vibe is a really well maintained private course.

Woods holes: Lots of good line variety and well defined fairways. For the most part, nice and wide tunnels compared to a lot of NC courses.

Open holes: Like ball golf, long multi-shot holes that require big hyzers and annys, etc. Big arms will beat up on these much more than my 300-350' max D on a good day arm can but for me (and probably most DG'ers) they did a great job with the distances.

The wooded holes on the back 9, can't remember which ones but there is like 3 in a row, aren't as good as the front 9 holes unfortunately. They aren't bad, but a little rough and could use a little clever tweaking IMO.

The rough on the open holes is not something you would want to do 90's dance move "the running man" around in sans pants but I've seen much worse and really, why would you want to do that anyway? You need help, your drinking is out of control, Steve.

I have no idea if there is a place to deposit human waste other than going Bear Grylls' style. The usual park amenities of trash cans and benches and water fountains are not available on the course proper.

Pretty flat.

Really fun, good course. It's really hard for a new Charlotte course to saddle up to the table with all the big boys and grab a seat but I think this one not only accomplished that but gave Eastway a wet willy as it did. I can't really decide if this is a 3.5 or a 4 but since it could conceivably be improved with amenities or some tweaking of those holes I mentioned in the Cons it really could flirt with a 5 IMO. Flirt, but probably never get due to lack of elevation and natural beauty and other things that get Dave242 a raging hard-on but I digress.

Dry Creek is a solid course just outside of Charlotte, with a great mixture of wooded and open holes. If this were in the Queen City, it'd be getting a lot more love.
- There is a lot to like here. Sometimes courses just have that feeling of something special, and you get that with Dry Creek. There is a great flow from hole to hole, with each being challenging, enjoyable, or simply solid. Of the entire course, there were only two holes I'd argue that were subpar, especially by this course's standard, and that had more to do mainly with poor design. The rest of the course offers one good hole after another.
- There's a wonderful mix of wooded and open holes on this course. Holes 1 -4 are wooded; #5 - 10 are open; 11 - 14 are wooded; 15 - 16 open and then 17 - 18 end back in the woods. The wooded holes at the front of the course (#1 - 4 & 17 - 18) have a strong Kilborne-esque quality to them. The course's strongest holes are actually the open ones, especially from the long tees. It's a credit to the designers that the open holes offer a variety of looks and feels, keeping the challenge and interest aplenty.
- Expanding on the above comment, the open holes offer some good layouts , with lots of strategically placed baskets and/or trees coming into play. The course emphasizes accurately placed tee shots, especially on some of the par fours on the long layout, namely #7, 10 &15. For example on #7 & 10, if you're on the wrong side of the fairway for your second shot, you're going to have a bad angle towards the basket with your approach shot. On #15, the fairway splits around a cluster of trees for your second shot. If you land in the middle of the fairway, you might have to lay up, just to get around the trees.
- The fairways are in great shape, with the grass recently cut. If you stay in the fairway, you're in great shape. Land in the rough and you might have an awkward second shot and/or spent lots of time looking for your disc in the tall, tall stuff. The rough really is unforgiving in some spots.
- Great tee pads and above-average tee signs. Tee pads are nice and long, which is always a huge plus. Tee signs are solid pictures that offer pretty accurate descriptions of the basket, fairways and tree clusters. Tee signs would be even better if there was a sign pointing towards the next tee and an even better indication of where fairways end and the rough begins. More on both of those concerns later.
- From the longs, there's a great variety of difficult holes, where you'll be struggling to get par, as well as some chances for birdies. In addition, there's also variety of really narrow wooded holes to wider fairway wooded holes. Even the open holes, when including the rough, have fairways ranging from wide open to much narrow. That all adds to the good risk-reward feel of the course.

For a somewhat new course, things are generally in great shape. The major problems are all smaller, maintenance-level problems.
- Signage could be much, much better. After parking, and walking behind the building, the only sign I saw was one arrow. Following the trail, I eventually saw another sign, which led to the first tee. The bigger problem is that signage is needed on the open holes in the back of the course. There are many cleared out paths/transition areas between holes, and at least once, I started walking down one before realizing I was on the wrong one. It's a somewhat similar problem to what you see at Mint Hill DGC, only on a larger scale. Some holes have good signage, it just needs to be consistent throughout the course.
- There are several LONG transitions between holes, several of which, even when they did have next arrow signs, I wondered if I they were wrong or I had missed a turn. The worst transitions were from #10 basket to #11 tee , #13 to #14 and #16 to #17. The whole stretch from #11 to #14 is somewhat weird, as a whole. After playing #11, you follow the trail where the first thing you see is the tee for #14 to your left. Head right to get to #12's tee instead. After finishing #13, you then backtrack, walking the entire length of #12, just to get back to the tee for #14. It was a little confusing playing that stretch, so I know it had to be confusing reading that explanation.
- I mentioned there were two below average hole layouts on the course, and they both were in that same stretch - #12 & 14. The main issue is that neither has a good fairway. Both are really narrow, especially with the trees and rough being so thick. #14 is essentially a wide path serving as a de facto fairway. Make both wider, or at least knock some trees down to thin out the rough, and they would both be suitable holes. #14, with a normal fairway, would actually be a really good hole. The approach shot, a dogleg right into an opening is actually a good layout.
- On the open holes, it would be nice if the rough/tall grass was better indicated on the tee signs, especially on holes involving blind shots. The inconsistency in fairway widths got frustrating at times. Case in point, on #6, my tee shot sailed to the right, over the tall stuff, so I think I'll be searching for my disc. Nope. It ends up in the fairways, in a cleared out area. On #15, another semi-blind tee shot, my shot sails a little to the left, before I lose sight of it around the curve. I think I should be ok, the grass didn't seem too tall. Nope again. This time it is in the tall stuff, and after 30 minutes of searching, I finally find it. I know one could walk every single fairway before playing each hole, but that doesn't seem like the most ideal solution.
- The back 9, overall was far less cleared out than the front 9. I don't know if the front 9 has been in longer, or has just gotten more attention, but the back 9 wasn't as broken in yet.
- I actually don't remember seeing many, if any, trash cans or benches anywhere on the course. Those aren't problems for me, but I know they're used, and preferred, by many players.

I was cautiously optimistic about playing Dry Creek, and was more than pleased with the course. There is a ton to like here for most players. As a true compliment to everyone involved, despite being a new course, Dry Creek, for the most part, already had that existing course feel.
- I continue to remain cautiously optimistic about the future of the course. If it's well maintained, and some of the minor issues are fixed, this is going to be a great course. I have a little concern that the course could become neglected over time, that the school and volunteers won't have the manpower to maintain the course. If the grass isn't constantly cut, the open holes are going to be really difficult to play. And in turn, this course is going to suffer.
- I feel this course could easily get lost in the shuffle. The Charlotte CDC, and all of its courses carry so much weight, that courses in the Charlotte-region can get overlooked, as we've seen with Stumpy Creek. That actually could become a blessing in disguise, possibly keeping the casual players away from this course, leaving it available for the more serious players.
- The open holes reminded me a lot of Falling Creek DGC in Bedford, VA. That's one of my favorite, if not the favorite, open courses I've played anywhere. So anytime I get a layout that reminds me of Falling Creek, it's a great thing.
- Not that a single person anywhere cares about splitting hairs when coming to ratings, but this was right in the 3.75 range for me. Rounded it up to a 4.0, which is fine for me.
- Regardless of that rating, this is a great addition to the Charlotte region disc golf scene. It's definitely a must play for anyone in the area. And for anyone making a disc golf trip to Charlotte, you should strongly consider adding this one to your itinerary.

With a mix of long tees, short tees, tight alleys, and wide open fairways, there is something here to make just about everyone happy. I feel like the parking lot is a very low-risk location to park, due to campus security.

No benches or trash cans as of this time. Not sure if there is an easily accessible bathroom in the area. The surrounding JUNGLE can swallow a perfectly good disc with ease, if you miss the fairway.

I really liked this course. There are a good number of Ace and Birdie opportunities from the short tees. But the long tees can be very challenging! Get stuck in the woods, and you'll be sorry. In my opinion this is going to be a great course for Charlotte, and especially for those of us on the East side of Charlotte. Check this place out, I really think you'll love it!

While I have the memory of this course being very open it really is a 50/50 split which makes for fun times. The flow allows for variety throughout the round and not just a bunch of open holes followed by a bunch of wooded ones.

Teepads are very nice as well as the signs.

Easy to find your way around

The Course is absolutely beautiful once you get. The trees and openness make you feel like you are on an African Safari. The types of trees with the tall grass right off of the perfectly manicured fairways give it a cool vibe.

I feel that the Short pads are very good to have where a person who has never played before having a disc golf class can play without being destroyed by the longs. The longs are defiantly a fun challenge.

The tall grass off the fairways looks good and gives the hole shape but it can also make it difficult to find a misplaced shot.

A lot of new Growth is taking over the wooded fairways which is to be expected this time of year.

The rough on some of the wooded holes is very very thick.

This course is extremely unique and is a good balance of open and wooded. You get a taste of traditional NC woods golf and also get to let 'er rip a few times. The course has improved immensely since I first played it and I know it will continue to do so. I strongly recommend checking this place out!

Good Job Wheeler!
