-A private 18-hole pitch and putt course with a mixture of miniature golf and funhouse holes. Ace runs to be made, maybe.

-Miniature golf such as short doglegs, narrow gaps, and a poke and hope. There are trees on the course, and short foot bridges.

-Funhouse such as a tiki guarding a basket on a spinning motor, putting thru a net, highly raised basket, and hanging baskets protected by obstacles to mention a few.

-A spectacular course to be played at night with lighted baskets, fairways, and Christmas lights.

-Tee signs white numbers on background red with hole number and measured in inches perhaps for the funhouse effect. From 68 to 129 feet. Don't worry about navigation impossible to get lost.

-Tee pads are turf just long enough for a pitch, the best tee pads I've played on any putter course.

-The fun factor is high for all types of players, families, campers, birthday parties, and even a work outing. You'll only need a putter.

-Other activities on the property primarily camping and a pro shop. Chairs and tables set up to just chill out. There are 2-18-hole courses on the property Sunnyside and Darkside. There are other amenities on the property.

-The baskets look at least a few decades old and rusted, ripe for an ace run chain out. But maybe that's intentional to protect against an easy ace.

-It's been the most difficult private course to gain access, it's a high membership fee for the facility, and just a few guests are going to get to play during peak membership usage. I don't include this con in my final review rating.

The Blockhouse Tiki Course is by far my favorite putter course based on pure fun. I can take any new to disc golf friend or family member including a 4-year-old grandson and they'll have fun! The funhouse effect will put a smile on their face, and they get a taste of a disc course on a miniature scale. Play the course at night and the lights will make the fun more spectacular. I have no personnel cons on the course, and my only personnel preference is if I come back to play blockhouse, make sure it's in the afternoon to take advantage of the Tiki Course in the dark.

Availability: I contacted the owner late summer 2021 to play and was asked to call back in the beginning of 2022 indicating less membership usage in the winter. When I called back in January the course's suffered severe wind damage with several hundred trees down, which was cleaned up when I played. The course was closed several months, and when I called back Sept. 2022, I was given a yes. If you decide to book camping its possible there may be easier access? The owner does offer non-member group rates. Just call the owner to inquire, great guy, spent a few moments chatting with him.

After I played my first putter course a few years ago, I had decided to cap them at a 3.0, but decided for Blockhouse Tiki to lift that cap. Based on the exceptional fun factor for a putter course I decided to place my rating at a 3.5.

I will dispatch from much of my regular review tactics for this one and instead write a narrative.
Tiki is fun. Most holes are <100' and require mainly a putter with a light for night time fun. Fairways are lined with boards and filled with mulch to help better define them in the dark Virginia woods. All baskets are lit to be able to see them in the dark. Baskets are old and not in great shape but, for what they are used for, there is no need for bright shiny baskets. Much destruction of the Tiki course is a good portion of the reason for the "closing" of Blockhouse. All fairways used to be lit and overhead lights worked. Now, much of this is gone. the first couple fairways are lit and none of the Christmas lights are lit. This DOES detract from the overall ambiance of the course but the spirit lives on.

The back 9 starts with an over the bar shot into a tall basket, the rest of the back 9 is very dark as this is where a lot of the damage has been taken. holes 12-18 are very dark and you really need to watch your disc, light or not. Water is in play on the back 9.

No real cons here. Just remember that you are playing a pitch and putt course for fun. This is not a gold level course. Read some of the signage that tells you of some of the tourneys they have on the Tiki Course, it's very interesting stuff.

If you ever have the honor of playing Blockhouse, DO NOT PASS IT UP... and furthermore, if you have the honor of getting out here, don't mess the course up, treat it as the true treasure it is...

More fun than some much higher rated courses. The grange itself is an amazing experience and the tiki course is one feature that makes it awesome.
You have to really think about playing it safe or going for the ace on every hole.
Course is filled with novelty holes measured in inches, so each hole has character, but none require much more than a putter. On hole 1 a rotating tiki man can reject your shot, cages and fences come into play making some make or break obsticles.
Hole 10's new basket is 15 feet high and the disc falls down a net back to regular basket level.
Night doubles was possibly the most fun I have had with a disc all year.

It is not a traditional course, if you want to carry a bag and launch you new driver, sorry. This is strictly a fun little novelty course.
Pay to play always sucks, but The Grange is worth it.
Catching area of the baskets were very shallow, the outside edge of many of the baskets was far too short.

T i m said it best that this is mini golf for disc golfers.
The Grange is a must for any disc golfer,Tiki may not be your cup of tea, you may think the other 2 courses are mediocre, but the environment and the experience rival a 5 disc course for me.

Imagine Christmas every day of the year combined with the (only?) putt putt course in disc golf and you've found The Granges Tiki Course. There are 18 full holes, each with tee boxes and footage markers (make that INCHES markers), white Christmas lights strung up in the air to add a mild glow to the fairways, and real colorful Christmas lights wrapped around all the baskets. Everything is par 2 and can be played with one disc in rather short time. Many of the pins are cleverly placed inside fenced areas, over ponds,etc. I would reccommend buying an LED light from one of the gumball machines at the pro shop (I nearly lost my putter that strayed off one of the longer fairways). This setup was absolutely magical and a great way to practice your putts and long approaches. Nearly all the holes are ace-runs, but beware- an ace run can easily become a bogey! The name of the game is to be accurate and get the par.

Fairways are long and dark enough at points, that you can lose a disc off the sides if you shank one (and don't have a light on them). They sell little LED's in a gumball machine, so make the sacrifice and put one on!!!

The icing on the cake, that is The Grange. Way to finish off a day at this place, as it's not tiring and will be in the cool of the night.

Tiki Golf is just about as much fun as you can have with a putter. 18 old rusty baskets decked out with Christmas lights are your ticket to late-night fun. With distances measured in inches instead of feet, these 18 holes can't total much over 2000', but the challenge is legendary. Tightly-treed alleys, mesh nets, cages and elevated basket placements will challenge your skills and your patience on this par-2 ace-fest.

Biggest pros: private land and Christmas lights, so you can play the whole course in the middle of the night with your friends, beer in hand. The course is short and won't wear you out, but presents enough challenge that you'll still have to aim -- every shot has an alley you've got to hit, so there are no gimme deuces, and you can play all night aiming for those aces.

The Grange itself is a unique experience, and the Tiki course is an integral part of the fun. It's hard to describe, but difficult to overstate -- you'll have a raucous good time no matter when you set foot at The Grange.

* old rusty baskets don't have quite the same chain action as fresh baskets

* taking a three can tank your score -- this is deuce or die at its finest

* it's one-of-a-kind, so most people will never have the chance to experience the greatness that is Tiki Golf

If you're at The Grange, don't miss Tiki Golf just because it's a short course -- it's also the best course, and the most unusual of what's out there in my opinion. Of all the courses I've played across the country, there is nothing that is quite like Tiki Golf -- one putter, beer in hand, you can play all night long. And there will likely be live music in the background as the soundtrack for your aceruns.

-Lit front 9
-fun for people of all skill levels
-perfect warmup to tourneys on big courses
-perfect for playing all night
-back 9 offers some fun shots

-cant play all the time

my first hole in 1 was with a mini on the long hole 6 (150 ft)

: ) :

18 hole par 2 course (one arguable par 3) on site with 2 full-sized courses. Mostly wooded with great shot variety considering the longest is 130 feet or so. Lit with Christmas lights lining each hole. Absolutely unique. Perfect to warm up your short game or to wind down after a round on the big courses. Some of the most gracious hosts anywhere.

The Grange is a pay-to-play facility featuring two full courses, 18 hole tiki course, and a video arcade.
