Good Practice Stop?

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 14, 2023 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

--Soccer fields between parking lot and course are good for airing out some throws before or after a quick round.
--First four holes have significant elevation changes

Cons:

Showing its age

Other Thoughts:

Staring Lake Park sits across the access highway from Flying Cloud Airport. It has an amphitheater, a water park, multiple soccer fields, and...a nine hole disc golf course. I've played there twice during the afternoon. Both times the soccer fields were empty. The course is nothing to write home about, but empty well-mowed fields are great for working the kinks out without losing discs. It might be worth a stop just for that.

Quick and Steep! 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:May 1, 2021 Played the course:once

Pros:

- pretty high level of challenge for a short 9 hole course
- surprising amount of variation on this small course, with mostly open shots but some obstacles
- huge elevation changes add challenge and intrigue
- disc golf area is virtually isolated from the rest of the park, so no real safety concerns
- concrete tees
- nice built-in stairs on some hill areas

Cons:

- most basic of tee signs, with several missing
- tee signs only at one tee per hole despite most holes having multiple (sometimes poorly marked) tees
- could use some wood chips around some of the baskets - dirt placed around some gets fairly muddy
- some baskets are starting to rust
- basket for 9 is a little TOO close to the entrance, leading to it being used as the practice basket while players are trying to finish their round
- not much in the way of additional amenities

Other Thoughts:

This is a pretty basic course in terms of amenities. It's situated in a nice park with a variety of activities and ample parking. The big highlight here is the significant elevation change, with some pretty difficult uphill shots. Otherwise, it's not a particularly difficult course.

For me, Staring Lake Park wasn't incredibly memorable, but I enjoyed my quick round here. The course might be a little tough for first timers, but it's a pretty low challenge level if you've played a bit. Most of the shots are pretty open, though some have a few more tree obstacles. It was moderately busy while I was there, but nothing too bad. I did enjoy that it was separate from other areas of the park, so concerns about hitting walkers, etc. weren't much of an issue.

The biggest cons here are just the general state of disrepair. The tee signs leave a lot to be desired and despite concrete tees, some built in stairs, and generally serviceable baskets, some new tee signs would be a huge upgrade here, as some are missing altogether and many are just a post in the ground with an obscure number.

If you're already in the area it's a fun enough round, but I wouldn't go out of my way to come here, personally. As mentioned above, I appreciate when a course circles around to the entrance, but having either a practice basket here or moving hole 9's basket a bit back from the entrance would be helpful - I couldn't finish my round because people kept taking putting practice on it without even looking up. To their credit, when I started the course I thought it was a practice basket too - it's just kind of unclear.

All in all, Staring Lake is a fun enough round, but doesn't rise to the level of many other courses in the Minneapolis area.

Great way to spend 45 minutes... 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 11, 2016 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

soccer field nearby to practice those shots/discs that is rarely in use, fairly well maintained, good mix of technical/short/bomber, a few ace-runs, many elevation changes, usually show-up and throw(no waiting), restrooms in parking lot, multiple tees on most holes

Cons:

regular events on-site (P.M.) make it impossible to park at times, baaaaad mosquitoes late Spring through early Fall, the woods can eat up discs on those bad throws

Other Thoughts:

Expect to see "The Fuzz" walking the course or in the woods. There needs to be more parking as events (non-disc) literally make it impossible to get to at times. I really value the soccer field nearby that allows some grueling practice when needed. Throw it and you'll want to throw it again.

Enjoyable course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Apr 6, 2017 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

For a 9 hole course it has many challenging baskets. A couple long LH fade shots and a few RH fade shots. There are also a couple of easier baskets to help get the confidence back up after taking a plus 1 or so....
There is a nice up hill shot that I feel is not seen too often. I love that this course has concrete tee pads and mulch around the baskets. The signage on the course is also pretty good.

Cons:

There are a lot of sticker burr bushes and weeds if you go OB. The bugs get really bad in the summer. There is a lot of litter around the course, maybe a few more trash cans would help with that. The overall terrain could use a little up keep, there are some washed out areas on the trails.

Other Thoughts:

Overall I think this to be a great course for all levels of skill. I enjoy all the holes with their different features. All the trash around the course makes me upset that people would disrespect the park and other players by littering. I dont think the park is responsible for the litter, that is our duty as player to keep the courses clean but maybe a few more trash cans would help. I think this could be a 4 star course with just a little more upkeep on the terrain.

Somewhat annoying, but playable 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 15, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

-Easy to find the tees and holes
-Reasonable distance between holes

Cons:

-A lot holes have hills that are awkward and tiring to walk up and down
-Easy to loose your disc on a few holes because of large forested areas.
-Not a very creative course

Other Thoughts:

I didn't like this course much. Some of the holes were way too short while others were too long and annoying with trees. I spent almost 20 minutes looking for a disc that fell into a grove off trees. I'm also not a fan of traversing hills on multiple holes and this course while only 9 holes had a lot. It was also quite crowded when I played through.

Up and Up 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 16, 2015 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Overall overview:
* I decided to give this course a try on my way back from work training. I heard it was a lefty friendly course, so being a lefty I had to go!

* I was expecting nothing but doglegs right, requiring just hyzers, through wide open areas with rough coming into play only if you shank one. I was wrong and glad to be!

* The course does cater to lefties for sure. Holes 3, 6, 7 and maybe 4 come to mind. Only hole 1 from the pro tee is catered to RHBH. Rest are pretty neutral.

* One thing I wish the course had was a sign. Going to the park for the first time I had no idea where to go! I only knew it was there since I saw the baskets on the way in. If you drive in you want to park in the right hand side parking lot, next to the baseball field #3. Walk past it along the path and you will see 9's basket down the left field line. On the plus side there are poles in the ground showing the hole # and if it is the Amateur or Pro tee. They are marked with an A or P. Hole 2, 5 and 6 I did not see any P tee. Though on 6 I did see a large dirt patch 10-15 ft behind the normal Tee, so might be a local tee. There were ft marks for some holes, but not all, and did not seem quite right. Even the listings on this site seem a bit too long. I can throw on flat land about 310-320 MAX but I was putting from the circle on holes labeled over 370ft. There was not much trash, but I didn't notice many trash cans if any, so I can only imagine during the busy summer how littered this place could be.

* Continuing with the A and P tees, the A tees are perfect for new players and upgrading to the P tees just add a little bit of distance. Only holes 1 and 7 really add different angles. 8 is a scary one, since it adds about 100ft, but it is 100ft of pure uphill.

* The course does flow very well. Each tee is very close to the last holes basket, so it is very difficult to get lost. I only wish there was a general map for each hole, since I had to walk up a few fairways to find the basket before throwing blind. Like on hole 3. Being a first timer there you can roughly know where to throw based on the lay of the land, but you really don't know how much of a dogleg there is on some holes.

* I was surprised how much I had to think of my shots. It wasn't just a toss it up hyzer and see how close you can get. I was thinking of the angles I needed to hit, or how low to play a skip shot, heck I even tried a roller on 9. If I were to go there again, I bet I would even try some thumbers or tomahawks. If a lefty had to think so much about it, then I feel bad for you RHBH!

* Along with making you think for a moment about how to attack the hole, your elevation game is tested on many holes. Hole 1 is straight down hill from both tees, and hole 2 is going right back up. 3 continues the trend by forcing you back down the hill. On 4 you once again go right back up a hill to street level. From here it is up to you if you want to play the last elevation change hole, which would be 8's P tee. If you want to work on how to deal with quick elevation changes as a beginner I suggest coming here. However, the elevation is a double edge sword since I can foresee that on rainy days or just after a rain, that the lower 4 holes could be almost unplayable with water.

* This course does have Ace runs! So be ready for some Oooohhh and Aaaahhhh! Heck even I threw an Ace on my first serious round on hole 5.


Cons:

Summary TLDR:
* The course needs more signs, preferably with hole layouts for first timers.

* Can see the course being tough to play on days where it rained.

* Not a course for power arms

Other Thoughts:

* If you want a course to practice your mid-range shots or turnover shots or dealing with elevation, then I suggest stopping here. It is overall a good course. It needs some updated signs and trash cans, but it is in a very pretty area and was a joy to walk around. Not to mention it gets your heart pumping with quite a few Ace run holes, especially from the A tees. It does cater to lefties, but can be a challenge even for us!

Great course for leftys 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 11, 2014 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

-Nice big tees
-Long/Short tees on most holes
-Plenty of elevation changes
-Hole 5 is an excellent risk/reward. 165' wide open makes it great for ace runs, but over shoot and its thick woods and a drop off.
-Big open field between parking lot and hole 1 make it great for warm ups and field practice.

Cons:

-Can be buggy, especially annoying gnats flying in your eyes trying to putt.
-Pathway between 3 and 4 is overgrown
-Course can get busy

Other Thoughts:

-Holes 3 and 7 have big right doglegs, and hole 4 and 6 are also well suited for LHBH players.
-I wish this course had woodchips because the sand around the basket is very fine and makes the discs slick.
-The field gives this course an extra half point

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 8, 2014 Played the course:once

Pros:

This nine hole course has anything you need. Long and short shots. Right, left and straight shots. The course has a nice loop about it. Tee pads not broken and are the right size. Big. Basket are all good, no missing chains and are upright. You by going downhill, then back up, and then level off on flat grounds.

Cons:

Need restrooms and more trash cans. Seat would be nice to.

Other Thoughts:

I wish North Dakota would have more courses like this one. I will back to play this one, again.

Got me into disc golf 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Jul 18, 2012 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

The course is small and is a very quick play. It is a great course to work on your short game and for beginners. The course has nice tee pads and the design/layout is very easy to follow. The city is trying to make some improvement with wood chips and some new tee pads, which is nice to see. Considering how small the course is, it has quite a bit of variety. There are a few holes that play downhill (1 & 3) and uphill (2 & 4), along with a couple holes that play to the right (3 & 6). Hole 3 and 7 and probably my favorite holes on the course. I love throwing a thumber over the top of the trees on hole 7 and hole 3 is a decently long, downhill hole that fades to the right at the bottom of the hill.

Cons:

Unfortunately, this course is constantly packed with beginners and hipsters running around. The recent road construction also shortened a few of the holes on the back on an already short course. The city also wasted the little money they put into it last year following the road construction by doing some landscaping on hole 8, down below the hill. Nobody ever plays from that tee pad and I felt the money could've been used a lot more efficiently. Lastly, the areas around the tee pads are often littered with garbage. The few garbage cans that they have on the course are often full, so this could definitely improve.

Other Thoughts:

There was talk that the course was going to expand to possibly a 12 hole course, which I would love to see in the future since I live in the area. It's a great course to warm-up on before going to play Bryant.

A very enjoyable course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Apr 3, 2012 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Starring Lake Disc Course is a great course with many opportunities for different shot selections. There are 4 holes that veer to the right, 1 hole fading to the left, and the other 4 straight on. There are four holes that are advantage to the big armed players- holes 3, 4, 7, and 9. The remaining holes work well for beginners.

Free to play.

Cons:

After the road construction from 2010-11 a few holes lost their prestige in size and difficulty. Specifically the last 5 holes. But with current updates, such as tee pads, wood chips, and seating, its been made up for a bit.

This course becomes overwhelming populated after school is let out and many 1st timers like to take their time playing.

Bugs get very bad during the certain parts of the summer.

Sometimes too much trash is left about, which is typically left in the area where trash cans have been placed.

Other Thoughts:

The best time to play this course is in the morning and before noon- like most courses- since school gets out this is the best free course to play in the South West Subs on Minneapolis.

Starring Lake has a large field leading to tee 1, which is great for practicing shot selections and letting 'um fly!

Quick and Dirty 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 1, 2011 Played the course:once

Pros:

The directions listed on the course information tab is slightly incorrect. You take a right onto Pioneer Rd from 169, not 212. I recommend using the Google Maps provided on DCGR's website to find the best route for you.

Take a right as soon as you enter the parking lot. The 1st hole is about 100 yards to the right of the lot.

Staring Lake Park has a lot of other things going on other than disc golf. There were a few ball fields, nice horseshoe pit and an open air amphitheater.

*The tee pads for all of the holes were more than adequate for each hole, dual pads on many of them. The back pads usually did a good job of adding a little more challenge for the beginner/intermediate player.

*Nice chain baskets which did not need any sort of maintenance.

*A good mix of elevation and distance, some open some wooded. Most holes were either ~200 feet or 350 feet and the longer holes predominantly catered to a left handed player or a forehand thrower.

*Even with Bryant nearby there are plenty of reasons to go to this course. It is much more beginner friendly, as long as the park isn't packed your round will be completed much shorter and it is free.

*A few benches and picnic tables to sit down while waiting or for just enjoying the weather.

*There is a good chance you'll see an airplane land or take off at Flying Cloud Airport just across the street.

Cons:

The biggest con would be the litter. There was a lack of any garbage or recycling cans on most holes. Putting some at hole 1, 4 and 7 would be optimal.

There was quite a bit of erosion on a lot of the holes. The lack of rain in the past few months have made the course incredibly dusty. Hole 8 has added woodchips and a staircase for the back tee which was needed although most groups seemed to skip that tee.

Two holes have you throwing very close to the street, which is a very busy road.

Other Thoughts:

It is overall a very fun course. A decent place to play a quick round when you are sick of Bryant or are nearby. It has a decent variety of shots and made good use of the small amount of land allotted for disc golf.

Great Fun for Free 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 26, 2011 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Staring Lake is a great course for pros and beginners alike. The shorter holes make it easy for a nice low score, but you're still given a challenge with Holes 3, 4 and 8. Very favorable to lefties and forehand throwers. There has recently been work done to some of the holes, such as adding steps and woodchips to the dreadful Hole 8. Overall, not too shabby.

Cons:

There is a lot of trash around Hole 6 and dabs of litter lurking on other holes. It can also be distracting trying to drive with cars blowing by on Holes 5, 7, and 9.

Other Thoughts:

The fact that Staring Lake is free is a good and a bad thing. Good because it's, well, free, and bad because it can be crowded.

Pitch & Putt Or Big Boy Course? 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 21, 2011 Played the course:once

Pros:

Everything about this course is kind of an enigma to me. There were signs and then there weren't signs. There were tiny little concrete pads and then "Boom", there were large championship caliber pads that even Dave Feldberg himself, couldn't find anything about them to complain about. You start out playing # 1 and 2 which are little pitch & putt holes and then you run into #'s 3 and 4, both 300' plus holes and challenging. Then you play #'s 5 and 6, two more little pitch and putts. I liked this course a lot, I'm just not sure what the designer(s) were attempting to accomplish. The woodchips are used well here to cover some bare ground and hopefully prevent erosion. Baskets are in decent shape.

Cons:

There was too much litter here. A few more garbage cans would help. I can see the course getting mega crowded but that's what we get when we have a popular course.

Other Thoughts:

I can call this "The Bagless Player Course." I've never been on a course before with so many players playing and carrying their extra discs or two in their hands. I think I was the only guy on the course with a bag. I think they were looking at me and laughing at the old guy with all the extra disc. That's the way I look at the player who has the cart with the cooler, the umbrella, the stool, the boom box, 100 discs, three different kinds of retreivers, refrig, and the all the other bells and whistles.
Nice fun little course for a quick round. As with many of the course in the area, it looks as though some improvements are taking place.

Quick Lunch Hour Course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 27, 2010 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

-Easy enough for beginners
-Holes 3, 4 and 7 are a challenge
-Quick 9 hole course
-Convenient location
-2 Tees on most holes

Cons:

-Litter
-Short holes for the most part

I've played this course many times during my lunch hour with a couple of friends - it's easy to get a round done in about a half hour, even with 3 people.

Holes 3 and 4 are very challenging to par, but even an average player could par this course after a few rounds.

They recently made hole #6 a bit more difficult by moving the basket, but the distance is about the same. It's a perfect course for a game on your lunch hour - it's usually not too busy around 11:30 - 12.

A good compliment to Bryant 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 3, 2010 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

-Course being updated by Eden Prairie Parks Dept.
including sand around baskets, wood chips, new tee pads to replace ones taken out, and new trees along the road to help cut down wind.

-Good Casual course, not the most difficult, but does it have to be to get a good rating?
-Dual Cement Tee Pads, nicely sized
-Good condition Mach 3 baskets
-Many ace runs
-Great use of space, small course, yet makes use of what there is
-Great use of elevation
-Holes 3 and 4 (and 8's long tee) offer a good challenge to those that would say that this course is too easy
-Will test both hyzer and anhyzer shots
-Beginner friendly
-Easy to navigate
-Flows nicely, looping back to start
-Plenty of parking
-Trash cans on some holes (PLEASE USE THEM)
-Course is pretty....too bad many people litter
-Restrooms back towards parking lot

Cons:

-Lots of litter (need more trash cans badly)
-Crowds (come early if you want a casual round)
-Destroyed signs
-Vandalism on some benches and wooden bridge
-Only one real chance to bomb it
-Hole 8's long tee is just silly, I don't think I've ever seen anyone else play it. It is a drive straight up a steep hill where you disc will likely land right by the short tee which is much more fun to throw from anyways.
-Erosion on hills from lots of use (maybe get erosion control mats like Bryant lake?)

Other Thoughts:

This and Bryant Lake are my home courses. I like to alternate between the two. Bryant offers a full 18 and many open long drives, while Staring offers a quick 9 and shorter holes. If I'm in the mood for a casual round or I'm short on time, I'll choose Staring. If I'm looking for a place to spend the afternoon or more of a challenge I'll go to Bryant.

The two worst things at this park are crowds and litter. This course is located extremely close to a college, come here after class lets out and it'll be packed. With the college kids comes the litter. I don't know why they can't hold onto their bottles and chip bags until they get to the holes that have trash cans....but it can get pretty bad.

This course sees lots and of use and it needs some loving care. Luckily I've seen the Eden Prairie Parks Dept working on sprucing up the place. I like knowing that this course isn't getting neglected, hopefully they will be adding more trash cans to combat the rampant litter problem.

This is a good course to learn on or if you are looking for a quick round. I'm about a mile from there so it is too convienent not to play. There have been rumors over the last few years that the city might be turning it into a full 18. Only place they could really add holes is into the woods; which could make this a interesting course.

Another nice course that will forever be with me! Ace #2 2+ years

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Sep 11, 2009 Played the course:once

Pros:

1) Course has nice concrete tees (although #7 teepads and #9 long tees are missing because of construction).

2) Woodchips are used well to cover bare soil on most of the course.

3) Nice elevation changes on many of the holes (1, 2, 3, 4, and #8 long tee). Side slopes are used for a few baskets creating some possible rollaways and tougher putts.

4) Good variety of fairly open holes (5, 6, 8, 9) with a smattering of trees to avoid, balanced with the tight and technical holes of #3 (have fun trying to hit that opening for a chance at birdie), and #4 (Good luck missing all of those trees in the woods) and then the fairly open elevation holes of 1, 2. Uses the property very well, but it does look like they could stand to have some alt pins or move a few holes.

5) Baskets are in good shape

6) Disc golf is seperated from all the other amenities in this park. It looks like there are a lot of other things to do in the park it even has horseshoes!

7) Beginner friendly because it is pretty short. The short tees are easy enough, but the longs will challenge the beginner.

Cons:

1) Tee signs are very minimalist and two of them are missing right now.

2) 2 concrete pads missing on #7 and #9 because of construction. This is only a temporary negative.

3) Erosion is a problem in a few spots. Some timbers or more mulch or some other sort of retention would be helpful in a few spots.

4) Trash is evident in many spots probably made worse by the construction and the opening up of the woods.

5) #8 and #9 are simplistic and boring, I hate to end on a bad note. I could see another hole using the ravine more down in the woods

Other Thoughts:

This course will remain with me because it took me like 20 minutes of searching to find it and I had to be at Bryant Lake by 7:00 to play with a friend. I almost gave up and just went to Bryant but I am glad I ended up finding it. I step up without practice putting or anything throw my Spider (at 6:15 and barely any light yet) and bang into the chains for my second ace. My rating may be slightly influenced by the fact I got my second ace here and I will consider it, but I really do like the holes here. It is short but it has everything except water. It has some open holes, it has some technical tight holes, it has some great elevation changes.

Nice tees and baskets. Cool watching planes fly in and out.

Cons:

Crowded, trash/ litter rampent often. Eroison in many places.

Other Thoughts:

Decent course to play when Bryant is too crowded, but then again it too is crowded most nice days. Another good date course.
