2.50 star(s) Quick, easy 18 hole course - Free to play 18 hole course - Decent mix of open/wooded holes - Very low traffic - New course, so still being worked on - Not a single long hole, longest is probably not much over 300ft - Hardly any elevation changes, only on a couple of holes - No signage/direction...

Pretty much. I live in Elk River, so I can get to this course in about 10 minutes and it beats the course in ER, as well as the one in Twin Lakes. It's nothing compared to courses like Bryant Lake Park and Blue Ribbon Pines though.

I went out to Zimmerman yesterday and played the course. Course layout was OK, baskets looked pretty cheap, but definitely worth a play through if you are in the area. The first few holes are really boring, but it starts to go more into the woods in the back 9. None of the holes are extremely...

I believe this course is now open, has anyone had a chance to play it yet?

There will be an 18 hole opening in Zimmerman, apparently this month. Not sure what the details are though.

Maybe the park board member is a disc golfer :p

I was really excited too. I live in Elk River, right across from Lions Park -- which is more of a 9 hole practice course honestly. Really hoping for a nice wooded course with good upkeep!

Touche.

I just heard there will be an 18 hole DGC opening in Zimmerman, MN later this month. Haven't been able to find any info about this online, other than a confirmation that it is being worked on. Anyone else heard about this?

3.50 star(s) Great potential, lack of maintenance - Beautiful park - Great hole variation - Decent baskets - Good mix of wooded/open holes - Major lack of direction/signage - Horrible tee-pads (sometimes you're better off not throwing from the tee-pad) - General lack of maintenance There are quite a few DGCs...

3.00 star(s) Fun course with potential - Nice wooded area with good diversity between holes - Requires decent accuracy - Free to play - Close to Lions Park in Elk River and fun to play both for an 18 hole experience - No tee pads - New players may get lost as there is no direction to the next hole (although...
