Very nice park with playground for kids very close, as well as restrooms. Clean and well kept. Nice signs with distances for multiple basket locations. Good basket locations.

Sometimes hard to tell which basket I was going to and not always sure where the next tee was.

It did cost $2 per person to get into the park ($1 for kids 3-12), but it was well worth it! I don't mind paying a bit for a clean well kept course!

Very beautiful park,there were people out doing work on some of the grounds in the course while we were playing.
Great teepads,plenty big for a nice run up.
Teesigns with a pretty detailed map for each hole,and the distances all seemed to be pretty accurate by eye.

Would be nice to have 1 or 2 more long holes to balance out the mix some,but overall the second time round this course was much more enjoyable
The navigation of the course was a bit iffy,had to backtrack a couple of times to get to the next hole,but nothing overly troublesome.

I came back to play this one a second time when all the pins were in the proper position,and this course was really,really fun.
They had a few holes that took advantage of the elevation which is always a plus in my book,and it had a fair balance of shots for all throwing types,lefty & righty.

There is a two dollar fee as other people have mentioned,but that's to get in the park,not for the course itself,so once you're in you can play as much as you want,but there are limited hours in the off-season.

Very pretty park with many amenities for every one. There is a large bathroom facility at the beginning of the course with enough room to change in. There is a large playground right at the beginning of the course to keep the kids occupied. There is also a zoo and camping facilities here. There were very few people around when I played, but I would think this park has be well used on the weekends. One other very nice plus is the perimeter of the disc golf course is very well marked with signs warning the uninitiated what is there. Hopefully this helps keep the wandering pedestrian out of harms way. The park is dominated by large pines with a sprinkling of oak and magnolias as well. The park is very well maintained with no trash seen by me when I played. There is not a lot of elevation change in this part of the country so trees are main obstacle and there are plenty of them. Very good thing in the heat of August, the shade was appreciated. The signs are great they have a lot of information on a small sign including the direction of the next tee. Most were fairly obvious but in a few cases this was necessary. The tees are concrete and in good shape with plenty of grip for footing. However with my long legs I found them a little short. Most of this course is fairly technical with a couple of holes over 500 feet. The opening nine holes are easier with the closing nine featuring much tighter lines. This course is beginner friendly with enough trees to navigate around to please the more accomplished player.

Mosquitoes, lots of mosquitoes bring some good bug repellent with you. There are not many trash cans or benches around, but the park is remarkably clean even so.

This is not a particularly difficult course but fun none the less. It should be noted that there is a $2.00 entry fee for the park. However this is one of the best maintained parks I have visited. Maintenance is not cheep. Par should be 3 for all the holes except the two 500 foot holes that could be Par 4. If you are an advanced player, Par 3 on all holes. If you are in the Albany area this course is worth playing.

The tee pads, signs and baskets are in excellent condition and are top notch. Yardages on signs are correct and have an accurate representation of the hole layout. In addition, there is a little arrow on the sign that tells you where the next tee pad is, so navigation is a breeze. There is no water anywhere near the course and it so well manicured that it would take a incredibly errant shot to loose a disk. Holes 9 and 18 bring you back to the starting point where the restrooms were in good shape and they even had drink machines.

Not an overly challenging course. I am 40 year old, 850-875 player and I shot a 56 the first time through {they set par as 65, but I would say par is more like 56 (all par 3's with two par 4's; 550' and 515')}. The course is 5,530,' so with an average hole length of 307,' even a weenie arm like me can make up for a poor tee shot with a nice upshot.

Joshua A. Franklin is a really nice, fun course. I would give it 4.5 stars if it had a second set of long tee pads. Holes 12 and 17 are sort of just a "poke and hope" with a bunch of pines and no clear fairway. You just have to make a good clean throw and hope the disk finds a way through. Finally, as a side note, the baskets on holes 6 & 14 are within about 100 feet of each other. My friend and I threw to the wrong basket the first time and had to play hole 14 a second time (as we were putting and realized the basket said 6). I am not knocking this course, and I wish we had it in Tallahassee. It is what it is, a fun, well-manicured, short course.

Very clean and well kept. Nice tee pads and signs. Beautiful trees. Well laid out with nice variety. Distances range from 220ft to 550ft. The front 9 is fairly open...giving better players birdie opportunities and some fun for beginners. The back 9 is more challenging...with more trees and narrower paths, accuracy is rewarded as well as the ability to bend your throws.

It costs $2 to enter the state park...there is no additional charge to play. The course is pretty much flat...there are a couple of holes that are on slopes. The course isn't very technical...straight throws can usually earn you a par...more control is required for birdies.

Hole 10 is tough to find...keep going straight after the 9th basket, cross the street, and pass the stop sign.

Being in a State Park, this could be a nice over night trip...the park has camping, a Zoo, a childrens park, and the disc golf.
