Two tee locations per hole, with excellent signs at each. Multiple pin positions. Baskets in great shape. Practice basket. Good "next tee" signs. Shady with "pretty" undergrowth (lots of ferns, vice weeds). Very nice variety in length, elevation, and turning requirements.

The framed tee locations are filled with small crushed stone which was a bit uneven in places. A spotter would be quite useful on some holes!

The first two holes challenge your short-n-wooded technique, first with a lefty, then with a righty. Three-n-four stretch you out a bit, starting and ending in woods, gentle/multiple turns along the way, with a scattered-tree meadow to cross up (3) then down (4) to reach the guarded baskets. Five (and very similar number eight) are short, tight (trees and brush), slightly downhill touch shots. Seven is initially a wide open bomb, but basket guarded by small clusters of hardwoods - do you look for a way through, or go up-n-over? Nine is very long, very straight, slightly up-slope, periodically narrowing, finally reaching a basket tucked a bit into the woods.

Favourite hole: #6. From both positions but especially from the longs, was the most fun - steep downhill through a fair throwing lane but dense trees on each side, then a left turn (subtle from short-tee, very sharp from long tee) to a bit of open space, then back uphill an right to a basket protected by a few trees - have to be "just right" hitting initial lane, when/degree of left turn, then next turn, or you'll find plenty of trouble..

Very solid course - wish it had nine more baskets!

Surprising use of Public Works Land below an Interstate. This course provdes 2 sets of tees to one basket location. So you are never confused regarding where to shoot but still caters to both experts and amateurs as the pro tees are longer and at times require a different shot of the tees altogether. There is good variety in length with 250 foot technical par 3s and 750ish brutal uphill par 5s. For 9 holes there really is a bit of everything here: with the traditional long wooded lane to start your day #1, short downhill screamers through the trees #5 & #8, open bombs to basket in jail #7, slightly uphill through sparsely wooded field to allow for R, L, and over the top lanes #3, and the long uphill struggles up wide fairway #9 to end your round, What makes this course particularly special are the following 3 holes:
#2-A short technical delight as your required to shoot a tight but reasonable anhyzer through a plinko gauntlet stand of trees with zero undergrowth over a small undulated valley to a refeshing open green on the other side. Could be a birdie or double bogey here.
#4- Every elite Pittsburgh course has one of these long journey type holes with dramatic changes in environment and hole type..this one fires from typical woods downhill to a sparsely wooded field then dives abruptly into a dark hardwood forrest and requires a hyzer, then anhyzer, and a few technical approaches to get par 5...you feel like you played 3 different landscapes on this one..J Gary somehow creates this same dive into the deep dark forrest from the field on all of his elite courses..Love it!
#6-Perhaps the most unique hole a valley shot with significant fall and rise but theres a twist yes an actual twist in the valley that rewards a flex or S-turning shot...so yeah how often can you throw down and up while turning 3 times...plenty of room to make the shot work as well...creative stellar unique hole.
Course is near a noisy highway but the drone of vehicles is background buzz that is well worth the isolation such a great piece of land affords. Plenty of room in these woods to play big.

Some No trespassing signs here and there break up the pleasure of the woods. This course has a Championship 18 Hole layout feel and you feel let down after just 9 holes. Not beginner friendly, but it's set in an out of the way DG locale so it's not as though beginners will go here. The 2 downhill short holes seem to be missing something compared to the rest of the course...required fillers to link the incredible 4 to 6 and the wonderful 7 to finisher 9 but they do feel like filler holes. I wish the practice basket below the retention basin was a hole. A shot from the lot area down over the basin to the perfect green and basket would instantly be better than holes 5 or 8. This would be a great way to warm up your arm and kickstart the round with a fun hole. 9 is a tough way to finish your round uphill hucking par 5...brutal.

I have heard rumors that this course will expand to 18 and be a Championship quality 18...I have also heard its stuck being 9 due to lack of space. Either way it is worth a play and far superior than most 18 holers out there. Be aware that hole #1 is actually accesible from the lot by immediately taking the path to the left and not going all the way down to the practice basket area.

This 9 hole course offers alot of variety. There are completely wooded holes and some that are fairly wide open (and a combination of both).

For a 9 hole course there is some variety in Holes distances, from short 200' down hill holes to a nice long 750' finishing hole.

Very nice new Discatcher baskets.

Very nice Signage through out the course. easy to find every hole except #1 (look at the course map at the entrace first).

Great use of the available elevation without having any killer all up hill holes.

This course is also very well maintained and I think the #7 Green is one of the prettiest I have seen in a while that does not have water near it.

The Tee boxes are just too short. I don't feel I take an exceptionally long run up but I was off the back on every hole.

Also the crushed gravel tee's need to be compacted down. You can sink your planting foot 3-4 inches into the gravel. (The tees are still well maintained)

Not a Con as much as a wish, but it would be nice to have some of the brush along side the wooded fairways to be thinned some. An example is hole #5 on the right hand side is some scary deep shule.

Hole #1 a nice 354 ft. RHBH hyzer along a nice tunnel.

Hole #2 a 256ft gentle anny through and alley of trees over a slight gully.

Hole #3 407 mostly open Hyzer. Slight rise and trees are sporadic but effect your angles.

Hole #4 743 ft. soul killer. First shot into a open field, second shot into small bottle neck going into woods, (have to land in the openening there are no short cuts and it doglegs right after it enters the woods), 3rd shot up tunnel to pin. That is the way it is supposed to work but get ready for 5's through 10's if you can't make the entrance accurately. I am not a fan of Hole #4 because it did me dirty twice, but it is beautifully designed hole that requires distance and rewards accuracy and touch.

Hole #5 302 ft. steep downhill shot straight to the basket. Avoid getting off the fairway since the rough can be nasty.

Hole #6 They need to come up with a cool name like "Mr. Toads Wild Ride" or something along those lines for this crazy hole. 439 ft. with a dramatic downhill changing to dramatic uphill S curve. Very fun to play.

Hole #7 523 ft wide open bomber hole, with a very pretty green that is surrounded by smallish trees amongst long grass.

Hole #8 268 ft steep down hill hole that is similar to hole #5 but has a few more obstructions if you cannot keep you disc low. Easy to go long on so be careful.

Hole #9 755 ft is a very straight forward par 5 requiring 3 good long throws with the basket tucked in nice clearing. The fairway is straight and clear and you absolutely do not want to get into the rough on either side.

This course is new, really new, so it has not been "broken in" yet. I think that when it has had a year for the dirt spots from clearing brush and trees to be covered by grass and for some more paths to the basket develop from use this will be a great 9 hole course. For a 9 hole to offer such elevation and distance is quite remarkable.
Even though its only 9 holes this course can tire you out becuase of the steep slopes on some of the holes and walks between others. Bring good shoes and water.

Excellent variety of holes
Good scenery (especially on holes 3&4)

No signage yet (tee areas, arrow guides, at roadside).
Hard to find where the course is.

Once you turn into the maintenance facility, go down the maintenance road, past the buildings on your right, and to the parking lot which is close to the access gate.

Looking down the walking trail road, you will spot the practice basket. If you are not using the practice basket, immediately upon going through/around the steel gate, the course starts up the hill to your left.

After completing hole 5, not only are you not going right, instead left up the paved road, once you start walking up the road, it is easy to miss the #6 tee just off the road to your right, but even if you do miss it, you will also see a white spray painted tee box on the road itself, so you can either use that tee or retrace your steps a few yards to find the other tee box.

Hole 7 affords you an open field, and from the tee box to hole perspective, a bench on the hill to your right. After the uphill climb after hole #6, maybe a bench somewhere close to the hole #7 tee box would be good.

After hole # 8, down the hill and to your right to get to the multiple tee boxes of hole #9.

Save your energy for the long hole #9. Since you can't see the basket from the tee, know that as you get closer, the basket is veering off slightly to the left.

After holing out #9, it is up the hill to the right, gets you back close to the practice tee. If you have the energy, you may want to do it all over again.

If the maintenance folks did the clearing (or whomever did), you did a very good job on clearing out the course. Thank you!

Since there is also a paved walking trail, I suppose if you have non-disc golf friend(s) with you they could do the paved trail walk while you did the course, since the course weaves across the walking trail 2-3 times.

- Really long for a nine hole course.
- Great variety of shots. Dogleg lefts, and rights, straight throws and a few downhill throws from the tee.
- Front and back tees.
- Really great course layout
- New baskets which are numbered

- Barely any signs
- Kind of difficult to find course
- New pin positions are marked, but not in yet.

This course is what a nine hole course should be. Two par fives, four par fours, and three par threes!

It was kind of difficult to find the first hole. We walked around for a while, even though it was really close to the practice basket by the parking lot. They need to put an arrow to hole one. It's left of the practice basket on the hill.

Even though there were no signs by the tees this course was really easy to navigate once we got going. From hole 5 to hole 6 we got mixed up. You need to take a left and go up the road and not a right.

It is understandable that the course does not have signs yet because it is so new. They make such good use of the land though I thought I was playing the front nine of a course such as Moraine State Park or Deer Lakes. I was really impressed with the job they did of clearing the fairways in the woods. Really beautiful scenery around hole 3-4. The only real downside was that I hear there was not enough room to put a back nine. It is worth the 30-40 minute trip from Pittsburgh. I highly recommend this course.
