Kinder has all of the necessities I look for in a course:
-bathrooms available near practice basket/course start
-multiple parking lots with ample parking
-benches and picnic tables throughout to take a rest
-signs for every hole layout

It also has most of the non-necessities that make a 2.5 course a 3.5+ course:
-Elevation change. Nothing super dramatic, but there are some nice uphills, some nice downhills, some nice over-a-dips, some nice over-a-hill-and-back-downs. Not too challenging a hike, but I definitely enjoyed the elevation.
-Wooded and open holes. Most of the course is technical and in the woods, but there are 4 wide open holes and 1 or 2 that play from the woods into the open which allow for several different types of shots. I threw forehand and backhand hyzers, RHBH turnovers, flex shots, a roller, and every disc in my bag off the tee. Lots of options for whatever type of player you are.
-Multiple tees and multiple baskets. There are 2 concrete tees plus a brick-marked rec tee on every hole, and multiple pin locations on every hole. This makes every round customizable.
-U-disc was accurate and had some great scorecard options. All the normal options were here, but I liked that someone also created a tournament layout so you can play that format whenever you want, and there's an "Introvert's 19" which features only holes in the woods away from the rest of the park.
-Natural OB. You can definitely find yourself in some precarious positions off the fairway, but for the most part you can still advance up the fairway and you more than likely won't lose your disc. Not a lot of thorns or thickets. An errant shot will be punished, but not so much so that it's a burden. I still had fun scrambling from off the fairway.

Kinder Farm Park is also a great park for families or to just spend some time pre- or post- round. There are lots of picnic areas, a playground, a walking/biking trail, gardens, etc. This does increase potential pedestrians in play on a couple of holes, but the park itself is great spot and well worth the $6 parking fee.

Some of the signs aren't as clear as they could be, there were a few times I looked at the sign, then looked for the basket and it was in a completely different location.

Pedestrians definitely come into play on at least 2 or 3 holes. Park signs state that pedestrians have the right of way, so be on the lookout and throw a decent shot!

Wooded fairways are narrow and close to each other. I did not experience backups because I played so early in the morning, but the potential is there.

The layout can also be slightly confusing. If I wasn't playing with someone who already knew the course I would have definitely gotten lost a time or two.

Can someone let me know if the name of this park rhymes with "finder" or "hinder"? Or is this up to the individual? I can't stop thinking about it!

This course is super fun. Elevation change but not too crazy, technical but not so difficult beginners can't enjoy it. I will return!

Fun solid technical course that is mostly wooded with some gentle rolling elevation, and a couple open holes to start and end. Good mix of line shaping required and use of the available terrain and navigation mostly intuitive. The long layout is a par 66 that really rewards accurate fairway placement shots and punishes you off the fairway and puts you into scramble mode to save par.

2 large concrete tees and one short brick tee and two baskets per hole providing a bevy playing options for beginners to pro. Tee sign on middle tee. Benches. Restrooms by parking lot. Devoted disc golf club helping take care of the course, new players, and running leagues and tournaments.

Nothing too serious. Holes 1 and 6 play a little close to a walking path and not a lot of separation between some holes and can be crowded. Some of the fairways are tight. Some poison ivy in the rough.

$6 parking fee or parking pass for local parking lot. You can park at the field lot and walk over through the farm for free.

The original 9 hole course here was the first course I ever played and was nothing but the dinky kindergarten course, but the complete redesign to 18 has become a serious kintender to be one the best courses in the state of MD!

The Kinder Farm Disc Golf Course Plays in a beautiful park with that is well kept and offers a variety of activities besides DG. The Course offers a good mix of open/wooded holes with elevation changes. I also like that there is multiple pin placements that will require all shots along with adding replay value. I recall throwing BH, FH, Rolllers from the tee, and escaping trouble with tomahawks, thumbers, cut rollers in the wooded holes in my only round. Most Baskets were Mach 5's and in great condition. The baskets had an arrow sign pointing you to the next tee making navigation easy.

Notes on Holes:
About 1/3 of the course is open the other 2/3 play in the woods, that being said: I think this is a course you need to start out strong from the jump because the wooded holes will require a sharp game and some luck to score well. I like that the first two holes are short but technical, giving you some time to warm the arm before cutting loose. Memorable holes to me were 1,4,6,14,18. Id say the signature hole here is either 4 or 18. There is something about Hole #4, having two lanes out of the woods while looking downhill at a basket that sits behind a bunch of large trees from the teepad tempting you to go all out on a Roller. Hole 18 is also nice to see after playing many wooded holes there it sits on top of the hill in an open field allowing you to cut loose on it with no worries about going OB or hitting a tree.

Teepads: I know pavers are being installed here soon. With that being said: some of the holes could really benefit from a level solid teepad, hole 6 comes to mind and the wooded holes also.

Signage: Updated signage indicating the pins, its current position, and measurements, OB etc. would give this course a nice finishing touch to its redesign.

The Facebook page for the Kinder Farm Disc Golf club has a lot of activity and provides useful information on the course. On the FB page you can get news for weekly leagues and course maintenance days by the Club.

Design Ideas:
Hole 5 would be cool if it was elevated on a pyramid or something adding some character to this open hole.

A Basket suspended from a tree in the woods would be a cool placement idea hole #14 maybe?

I rate this course a 3.5 today, but it could easily become one of MD's best with the work that's going into it. With a $6 park entrance fee i feel the bar for this course is set high on the level of Patapsco.

Nice mix of open and wooded holes. Also a decent mix of somewhat long and short holes.

The wooded holes are removed from the park. I saw deer on three separate occasions.

Most holes did not have tee pads. Fortunately conditions were dry when I played. Minimal signage. There are no signs for most holes, which makes it difficult to know where to go and throw especially without tee pads.

Overall this is a nice course. If tee pads get poured and signs are installed, this will be a 4 star course.
