This is a really nice warm up or cool down from the bigger more hike like course on the other side. Both courses have elevation even this one has it which is rare for a short nine hole course. The course isn't difficult and requires nothing more than a catch disc or putter but the throws are fun - even the uphill ones. As with the big course on site the basket locations are in great spots. Navigation is simple as pie with all of the next tee signs just like the larger course next door. Even from this course there are fantastic views to be had of the snake river, especially from the basket on hole 9. At the end of the round or beginning there is some cool history about Massacre Rocks and a gift shop right where you start/end the course and park. I played this and the larger course on site two days in a row on Memorial Day weekend and there weren't any other disc golfers on either course!

It's not meant to be challenging and it isn't - like I said nothing more than a putter is required even on uphill holes. The ground is uneven similar to the big course on site so being cognizant of where you walk is a good idea. The signs and tee pads are showing their age at this point though the tee pads are still fine to throw on and the distance and what hole you're on are still visible for the most part all signs.

I really like that this little course is here right next to the visitor center and campgrounds just off of the freeway. Very fun little course even if not for serious players.

- this is a great little warm up course before going out to the big course
- fun and interesting layout
- great course for practicing approaches both BH and FH

- I'm not going to put a con because if you look at the course for what it is, you will appreciate it as a decent course for learning and/or warm up, like a pitch and putt golf course
- the park staff was very friendly and informative...I really want to put a thanks out to the park ranger who took a few minutes to give a few instructions on how to get more distance to my wife and I who just picked up the game

This newly installed 9-hole course plays up and down a rocky hillside, giving a nice variety of short, uphill and downhill shots.

Hole lengths vary from 114 to 221 feet, with most playing either up or down the hillside. Fairways are mowed which makes it simple to find your discs. Final hole finishes with a basket set directly in front of a huge boulder which is interesting to drive to.

Very nice gravel tee pads. the gravel seems to be cemented somehow, making these more like concrete. They are smooth and level.

Course is right next to the Visitor Center so gives good access to parking, restrooms, and water. Inside of the Visitor Center are snacks and cold drinks as well as a modest assortment of discs.

Interpretive signs along the course give interesting information about the geology, plants, and history of the area.

Homemade baskets catch fine, but the top is a thin steel plate that looks like it could cut a disc badly if struck.

Signage is very basic, but frankly is all that you need for this course.

The course plays in the same area as a nature trail, so you could have some folks moving through as you play. With the short hole lengths this shouldn't be much of an issue.

This is a great little course to introduce players to the game, for families, or as a warm-up before you take on the (much) more challenging 18-hole course in the park.
