The Forks Disc Golf Course is situated on a floodplain between two forks of the Illinois River. This area is mostly flat with lots of open space. There isn't a lot of rough to deal with. The course will become much more challenging when the hundred or so small trees which have been planted here start to mature.

The amenities are brand spanking new and very cool. At the beginning of the course, there is a really nice, creative kiosk with course map and sponsors. The tee pads are large, trapezoid shaped concrete ones. The tee signs are nice metal models covered with fiberglass ( # 5 has already been broken with a rock) and the baskets are Discatchers with the red numbers on top. There are plastic laundry baskets at each hole used for garbage cans.

Although longer than most nine hole courses, the holes are mostly open. A player throwing 350' will have his way here. A old rec player like me is content just to par everything. Only two holes play shorter than 330'. Four are in the 330-375' range and two play at 450' and # 4 is 629'. The course plays 5 holes going out and then 6-9 play back to the start.

Lots of info about Poison Oak. Stay out of the bushes.

Probably not that much challenge. I'd say the course plays as a solid recreational level. Intermediate players will smoke this course.

It's fairly wide open in places. All the planted trees will totally change the complexion of this course. It would be interested to come back in 10 years and play it again.

It's not exactly on the beaten track being on hi-way 199 which runs from Crescent City, CA on the coast to Grant's Pass, OR which is on I-5.

I'm worried that these lovely tee signs may not hold up to serious vandals.

Nine additional holes would be great. Players in this area will have a fine course to play. It fills a void as there aren't many other choices in these parts.

if you're driving by, it's a must stop. Makes for an excellent little 30 break on the drive. nine more creative holes would definitely raise the rating to a 3.
