- Course is set in a large park that has a lot of other activities present, like a horseshoe hall of fame, and bike trails. Disc golf is well separated though, I don't imagine there would be any interferences.
- Holes are pretty much split between a hilly wooded area, and some more open areas. The wooded area has a great variety of lines, difficulty, length, and hilliness. A lot of straight holes, like #5, #7, #8, and #9 have enough trees to force hitting a gap, and holes like #10 and #12 have turns to the left and right. Accuracy is definitely important. Lots of hills here as well; #5 has a very sloped green, #7 is blind with a hump in the middle, #8 is downhill, #9 and #10 are both good valleys, #12 is uphill. Lots of sloped greens and nasty, nasty rollaways are present here.
- Lots of holes in the open have a good wrinkle to them as well. #3 is a blind RHBH anny into the woods, with a sloping green behind. #4 is a blind, tight spike hyzer into the woods, with another sloped green. #6 has a pin tucked behind trees, #14 is a downhill shot with the basket on the right, next to or in the woods, #15 is a WALL of trees with a tiny little gap; an overhand shot is the only real option there. #16 is a valley shot with trees lining the bottom, and #17 is good downhill gap shot with trees. None of these are gimmees, by any means.
- As listed above, there are lots of elevation changes, from start to finish. Both and down off the tee, valleys and humps in the fairways, and sloping greens in lots of places. Adds a great deal of enjoyment, challenge, or both, on most holes.
- A good deal of baskets positions here, with many more (hopefully) on the way, can really change things up. Length, and lines, can be drastically altered. Add on the various pro tees, and the course really changes - averages an additional 100' per hole, with some nasty lines.
- Great pads, signage, and baskets. Navigation isn't too bad; though I did have a guide so no guarantees! Practice basket is more for approach practice over putting, that is interesting.

- A few holes are pretty open, and don't need any particular shot. #1 is pretty wide open, #2 is a simple hyzer shot, #13 is open on the right, and #18 is open on the right.
- Holes in the woods are pretty similar, in terms of terrain and trees. If you can execute the lines, most are easily reachable in one shot. From the red tees at least.

- All in all, a very fun course that offers a great variety of shots. Wooded holes are more fun over challenging... as long as you can stay clean! Plenty of spots to get into big trouble, from start to finish. Open holes allow for bigger drives, but still have enough character to keep things interesting. I would recommend this course to everyone, of all skill levels.

Course well maintained, no trash, beautiful scenery, baskets in good condition. Wouldv liked to see a few different placements of the baskets, but overall a great place to play.

I wanted to give this course a higher rating, but it was a tad hard to find, there were no signs to holes 1 and 2, and a few spots were very muddy this winter, couldv used some wood chips in a couple areas.

Has a great mix or short 3's with trees, and longer open holes with ante shots.

The only bad thing i have to say about the course is that its so far from where i live in eureka, mo.

We need more course like this, this course is very fun to play at.

This is a great walk through awesome woods. This course has some holes that are visually awesome. Holes that look impossible but are fair. Very fun to see you disc glide through so many obstacles. The back 9 has four different pin locations that significantly change the hole.

Back pin placements seem almost impossible and i fear having lost discs from a few holes. I have not played the blues but plan to this weekend. I do wish they would change the baskets more often

Hole 4 plays the most difficult....a drive up the left side of the fairway makes a shot through the trees an easier approach. Holes 14 and 17 both require left to right drives. Hole number 13 is still under construction so the practice basket is still being used.....this makes the hike between 12 and 13 a little longer than typical.

This is so far my favorite course of the ones I have played.
There are 2 sets of concrete tees that allow for more or less of a challenge depending on your skill.
Most holes also have multiple pin location at least the signs show that they do if baskets get moved.
Tee signs are Brand new and are posted at both sets of pads and include pin placements witha bolt showing which is the current postion as well as a map and distances for each.
Great use of elevation. Some play up steep hills others down them, and others across them giving the course little repetition.
A mix of lefty and righty holes forces different shots to be required, I used every shot in my arsenal at least once.
Also has a nice mix of wide open holes and tight wooded holes, with a few that almost look impossible (#15), Be sure to look up. You can go over the trees
Trash cans and benches are plentiful and give for a nice place to take a break in this Missouri heat, and cut down on litter
Gateway titans are in great shape

The terrain seems to be washed out a bit in spots and would be treacherous after any kind of rain. There are a couple steep hills to go up and down, and they are covered in loose rocks so you need to take it easy going up and down.
The short tees with pad could be seen as too short for higher skilled players.
Litter and graffiti seem to be a growing issue

Course can get over crowded with casual players which can make for slow rounds, and make playing the longer tees almost impossible since they tend to not look and see if anyone is playing from them.

There were score cards with maps at the kiosk right by the parking lot. This kept me from getting lost kept forgetting to look at the tee sign arrows showing the next tee.
right next to the kiosk there is a concrete Tee for the Practice basket nice warm up as it is on the way to #1


UPDATE: New Tee pads have been poured so there are now 2 sets of concrete tees. These new pads are mostly a combination of the whites and the blues, with some slight adjustments.
There have also been new pin placements put in on the holes that did not have them before, with more in the works.
Im told there will be some more landscaping work around the new pads, and that new Tee signs are in the works as well.

These new pads and pins give the course a whole new feel!!!!

The course plays through a sprawling park with a nice mix of grassy fairways and tighter wooded shots. The woods come into play even on most of the more open holes, and offer some good punishment for errant drives. Most holes have some elevation changes adding challenge and variety, including some nice ravine holes in the woods and some cool roll away greens.

There is a pretty good mix of hole shapes, playing pretty balanced for righties and lefties. You'll need to hit some tight lines through the woods to score well, and there's enough different shots required to keep it from feeling repetitive. The concrete pads are in pretty good shape, and there are two longer sets of tees on most holes that add some different lines and more distance. There are basic tee signs, and the course isn't too tough to follow and figure out. The tee to the practice basket is a nice way to get from the parking lot to hole 1's tee and eliminate that long walk.

The concretes play very short and pretty easy overall, lots of ace runs and deuce or die type holes out there. The longer tees are more interesting and challenging, but aren't all easy to find or well marked, and many of them are in pretty poor shape with ruts and erosion. There are also erosion problems on some of the hills in the woods where not much grass can grow. There is a long walk back from the end of the course to the parking lot, not a huge deal but a little annoying.

This is a fun course, with lots of fun ace runs and elevation shots. Beginners will find the woods a little tight at times, but it's a pretty approachable course. More experienced players won't find the concretes very tough at all, and the longer tees aren't always all that easy to find and throw from. There were some guys out working on a couple of them though, some improvements on those would really bump up the level of this course. There are better courses around St. Louis, but this one is still worth a stop.

Course has a large amount of variety. There is a great mixture of open shots and wooded shots. Large variety of shots needed on this course. Some elevation especially in the wooded parts of the course. Multiple pin positions per hole. Plenty of benches and trashcans located throughout the course. Course navigation was easy to follow (except for one spot). Beautiful spot to play in. Fairways were kept in good shape and it would be hard to loose a disc unless you went really far off the fairway. Great signs at each tee.

The alternate tee pads are nearly invisible (I did not know there were alternate tee pads until after I had played and was reading other reviews of this course)
Hole 12 (I think) was missing its sign
After Hole 3 there is no sign pointing to the next hole and there are several paths going in different directions that could lead to confusion on where to go next (That is the only navigation hazard I found on this course)

Great fun and a really enjoyable course if you are anywhere near the area I suggest you make a stop and try it out.

good course located right off the hwy. with a large variety of shots in your bag. course is now being reworked with different and multiple(2-3) pin placements on each hole(1/2 way complete).
longer white and blue tees marked with colored pavers and a tee marker post. (1/2 complete)
new chains and 3 rings on the baskets(all basket modifications complete)
new tee signs with proper distances and pin placements are in the future months, once everything is in place..

not really a con but now u have to look for basket on the blind holes

the new pin placements are driven by excessive play on the course which is causing a severe erosion issue on a few holes. that said the original placements will be replaced and used along with the new placements once the grounds are repaired.

the alternate placements are looking good a few are longer some are just a different shot with same distance.

Great all around course with a variety of short and long holes, as well as wooded and open holes.

3 different tee pads (only the reds are concrete) offer a great variance in the difficulty in the course. The various tee pads can take an easy par from the red and make a tough bogey from the whites or blues.

Bathrooms throughout the park, trash cans and recycling bins on almost all holes, new picnic tables on a few holes, and a practice basket.

The white and blue tee pads are tough to find unless you are a regular. 4x4 posts are going in to mark them with the painted pavers as soon as the ground thaws.

Only one pin placement per hole.

Concrete tee pads from reds only, natural from others.

A lot of traffic at this course, but hopefully will be eleviated by new courses being built in this area.

My home course, and one of the best all around in St. Louis. It has everything you want in a round of disc golf. New signs, benches, and posts for the whites and blues going in this year.

You will not be disappointed.

*2 pads every hole, although the longer pads are not clearly marked, tough to find & not cement
*good crowd playing - there were at least 20 people playing @ 9:30am on a friday, so you can probably count on finding someone to play with
*Located near the interstate
*Good mix of elevation, open vs wooded terrain, & variety of shots requried (backhand & forehand)
*In a nice park with other amenities

*Really short, pitch n putt style, at least from the concrete pads. i had birdies on 9 0f 18 holes.
*Only the short pads are concrete ... the long pads were easy to spot on some holes, tough on others, just marked with two white pavers with grass/dirt surface
*Invalid fairway trees. i didn't understand 3 or 4 of the holes where there wasn't any real line to throw ...too much "throw and hope"
*Old baskets

Most of the holes were fun, but very 2-able from the short tees...looked to be harder from the long tees, but it's tough not to throw off the nice cement pads. i shot a 46 with one bogey.

I was psyched to play this course as it had a solid rating of 4 stars, and i was definitely let down. Decent course, but nothing special. I'll be seeking out some different courses next time i'm in the area. Worth playing if you're driving down I-70 and don't have much time to play ...

On another note, the locals were very friendly and mentioned that their weekly doubles league gets 100+ people out each week -- that's awesome & just amazing.

First 3 are in the open and quite easy brides...nothing is over 300..then it goes in the woods and gets really crazy 7-12..give yourself plently of time to find discs, if you hit a tree you better look to save par. 14-18 are back in the open, def got to throw the thumber on 15 and now they took out a tree on 16 so the gap as opened up pretty big, just blast one through there and let it hyzer off into the hill for an easy 2. 17 stay right of the big tree fade back around that you'll be in good shape but don't go too far or else you'll end up back around 16 tee box...

nothing here but my own mistakes, great course

keep the speed limit, they are crazy about it

This course is in a great park and is designed very well. It is the best course in the St. Louis area. Has a practice hole which is great for warming up or trying a new disc. Excellent variety of hole type. Good course to start on like I did and also a great course to get good on. Trash cans and benches at every hole. Just awesome all around.

Very crowded. The most crowded course I've ever been to. There are signs on every hole but are not really helpful at all.

park rangers are VERY strict on speeding and making complete stops and blinkers. They just like pulling people over to waste their time. Beware of people on the paths.

This is one of my favorite course, although I only play it a few times a year because of the hour drive. It is well maintained and normally has a nice breeze. It has some open holes and some wooded holes. They are all fairly long (3-5 par), and you can't see the baskets right away, but this added to the challenge. My favorite hole is 14 or 15. The hole is thought dense woods, over over the dense woods. The basket is scene and is hard to get to either way. The grass can get a little high in places, but is mowed often by the park. There are bathrooms a plenty and a walking path that runs next to part of the course. There are also playground thoughout the park.

There are a lot of bugs, so wear bug spray. There is also a lot of holes with very little shade, so wear sunscreen. Also beware the stinging insects.

This course can get crowded, but it is big enough that you only see people ever once awhile. Most groups are only 2-4 people, but occtionally a large group does come though. It is a great place to watch others throw.

This is a great course. All kinds of shot types, a nice mix of fields and trees. The first three are open more or less, then you get to the woods and it really gets interesting. There are tight tunnel shots, uphill and downhill, dog legs in both directions. Just a great overall course. It definitely ranks as my favorite in this area. Once you get to the woods, you better bring your control game!

I didn't find much about this course that I didn't like, other than not really getting to let loose on a drive. There are a few spots that you can, but the longest was about 310'. There are pro pads on the holes, but I could not find them. There were white bricks not too far back from the normal pad, but the distance difference was way off according to the signs. Not sure what was going on there.

You can play a lot of this course with a midrange. Only 5 holes were at or right around 300'. This one is all about control and good putting.

Clear signs to point you towards the course.

Big parking lot with a bathroom and the info kiosk (with scorecards and a course map) all as soon as you pull up. Practice basket is also placed handily nearby.

Benches at most holes, trash and recycling cans at every hole.

Great signs to point you towards the next hole from the pin, plus the maps at the tees have arrows to direct you which way to go afterwards. Well beaten-in trails makes finding the next tee even easier.

Nice wood tee signs with simple maps on them; easy to figure out if you can decyhper the color codes.

Nice big concrete pads.

Moderately hilly, so the whipping wind makes you think twice when teeing off on the open holes of the course.

Fantastic pin placements (holes 5 and 10 stick out in particular).

Not many easy ways through to the pins on the wooded holes. Shot selection is key.

Great balance of uphill, downhill, and hyzer/anhyzer shots.

Grounds are very well kept. Minimal underbrush and grass was nice and short.

Very busy park, but interference with golfers is virtually nil.

Friendly locals. All 3 groups i ran into while playing solo either offered to join them or quickly play through.

White and blue tees are very poorly marked. Bring along someone you don't like and make them trudge around to find them.

Wooded holes are treacherous after rain/snow with the hills & mud combo. Wear crappy-grippy shoes when playing after inclimate weather.

Flags sticking out of the basket tops would be fantastic (or just some sort of color to make the baskets stand out against the grey winter landscape).

As well thought-out as the place is, the looong
walk back to the parking area from 18 is the single biggest blemish for this course.

Very impressive facilities combined with an equally impressive course. Weenie arms like me have a legit chance of scoring under par for the round. Bombers will probably get frustrated at the lack of distance.

Holes 11 and 13 are great for CTP runs.

Top 5 in St. louis and i'll be back for sure.

This is definitely one of the nicest courses in the St. Louis area. The park is very well maintained and has log cabin rest rooms a short walk away from every hole. The course features every shot imaginable and provides an excellent challenge. There are scorecards and signs that point to the next hole.

The white tee placements don't have concrete pads and were hard to find. The chains in each basket were rusted out and could use a replacement.

Not many complaints about this course. The holes are well marked and feature a variety of shot possibilities. A formidable challenge for any disc golfer.

Excellent variety as far as wooded and open holes. Nice concrete tee pads from the red tees. Great course for beginners as well as advanced players. Nice tee signs.

Can be difficult to follow at times--longer walks from hole 12 to 13 and from hole 13 to 14. White and blue tees difficult to locate unless you hook up with a local.

Busy course when weather is nice. Alternate pin placements would add to the experience.

Tounament coarse.
Well maintained
Has a very nice mix of shots needed to score well.
Concrete tees

Beginners can get in over theirs heads fast on this coarse.
Coarse can be hard to follow.
At times can be highly played making you have to wait at some holes.

I think this is a nice coarse if you want a challenge. The designers definatly put some thought into challenging even the best of disk golfers while still being quite playable for the less experianced group.

Quail Ridge is the first course I played at in Missouri and it remains to be my favorite. The course uses the all the terrain and obstacles the park has to offer. Holes 1- 3 give you plenty of practice to get your drive down and the rest require all the shots in your bag. You can play this course with one disc or everything you have. White and Blue Tees are now easier to find due to to new 3 ft wood posts! New pin placements are being installed! There are 8 holes with I think at least 3 new placements and some have 4. They are challenging too, most focus on making the holes a little bit longer and require more shaped shots. Look for the placements to be moving frequently once leagues start in spring!

The course can be a little hard to walk. Hole 14 is a long ways from 13 and the walk back to the car from 18 can be tough after walking all 18.

Watch out for hole 10 after you play hole 12.

Hole 13 is unplayable right now due to erosion problems, new grass is being grown there to help with the problem. Hopefully it will open again soon.
My friends and I have been walking to the trees by the walking path after 18 and throwing to the practice basket for a blind shot to replace #13.

Nice use of wooded areas
Good use of elevation
Rewards accurate drives
Nice signage on tees

Confusing to find first tee
There could be a couple extra signs between certain holes...locals have it dialed in, it took me a few "walk arounds" to find a couple of holes
A few holes redundant

I love tight woods, so most of this course was a blast for me. I got 4 birdies in the woods, so if you are accurate you get rewarded since the holes are pretty short-I actually overshot a few of the holes (being fortunate enough to thread everything)
This course is the first I've played in the St. Louis area, so I can't judge it based on others, but it was well worth the stop for me as I drove from St. Louis to Columbia and I would recommend it.
I played at 3ish on a Monday afternoon, so it was empty and pleasant.
