Good course map at the start and accurate and descriptive hole signage, easy-to-follow course flow, good quality Prodigy baskets. There are also some nice touches around some greens, including rocks or wooden features to prevent erosion and at least one pole planted in a stump to create a raised basket. There also are some wooden bridges at helpful spots throughout the course.

Two tees on most holes and even three on a few. There is some hole variety, including holes that play out of the woods into a clearing and an open finishing hole that plays from a field to a guarded green. Most of the course plays through dense woods, with a few holes having multiple route choices. There are two long, open holes (holes 9 & 10, I believe).

There are a lot of fun and challenging wooded holes on this course and I enjoyed the walk through the woods playing them. It's my favorite kind of golf. The property feels isolated, even though it is in the midst of the city.

Many of the wooded holes present challenging lines to throw, but are fair and fun. However…

Several of the wooded holes provide little to no opportunity to reach the pin, even on the best of throws. This is true especially from the long tee, as some holes (including hole one), are shaped such that the best play from the long tee is probably just a layup to the short tee.

Tee signs are located only at the long tee pads, as far as I could see. On many holes, someone playing the shorter pads would walk past the long pad to get there, but in some places the trail comes out at the middle or short pad.

Many holes had the baskets set at a level 12-24 inches above the usual height. Not in a way that seemed like an intentional elevated basket, but just as though the workers didn't know the preferred height or didn't want to dig that deep into the ground.

The tees are gravel within a wood frame. Most of them are safe and level (or can be made so with a little time spent kicking rocks around before your throw). I include that here because that is better than natural tees (especially on this muddy ground), so maybe not a "con," but not necessarily a great "pro," as many courses have better.

Overall, I enjoyed this course a lot. The wooded golf is fun, to me, and I appreciated the challenge and the shade. It was definitely very muddy in places and there is dark water where discs can disappear. I would recommend it as a good place to play if you are in the area and it is clear that locals have made improvements to it. There may be more improvements to come.

Multiple tees to choice from, Red, White and Gold. All tees are gravel, but even after a lot of rain this summer, the fine gravel tees were in pretty good shape.
The new Prodigy baskets are in great shape.
Very good course map at the start of the course and good signs on each hole. (They were just at the Gold tee, but you usually come to those first on most holes.)
Heavily wooded course, with 3 open holes, good mix of left, right and straight on ace runs. Several multi-shot holes, including one Par 5.
Most fairways are cleared pretty well, with the path to the next tee pretty obvious.

Very soggy the day I was there. #2 (or was it #3) had lot's of standing water, very difficult to play. Quebec had experienced a lot of flooding before I got there, so I'm hoping this was an unusual condition, but with the lack of elevation, there was not much runoff.
There are drainage ditches that run throughout the course, they are small, but contain a decent amount of dark water, luckily I didn't land in any. That's not the CON, but most are hidden from the tee, I don't recall if they are on the tee signs.
Several holes had no, to difficult to find, fairways. #2 and #5 come to mind.
The course finishes with a pretty basic, mostly open hole, with only a few trees to beat. Probably won't have a lot of scoring separation. Luckily, this is mitigated with the very challenging, multi-shot #17.
#1 was more challenging then you will find on most courses, a tight, double bending fairway. I hope new players don't get too frustrated after this one. (Of course, that fairway keeps you safe from the adjoining archery range.)

When we decided to take a weekend trip to Quebec, I was happy to see there were 2 courses to play. I didn't bother to read the single review of 1.0, for this 12 hole course, knowing I would play it anyway. I can't tell you how pleased I was to find a challenging, 18 hole with plenty of upgrades.
As I mentioned in the PROS, there are 3 levels of Tees, Red, White and Gold. They are not 3 separate tees on any hole, 2 holes use the same tee pad (short holes), 8 have Red and White together and the other 8 have White and Gold together. So there is plenty of challenge for all levels.
Most of the longer tees are just longer, but a couple of holes, #1 and #11, require a tee shot near the shorter tee, then hitting the gap. After wide open holes #9 and #10, #11 requires a 200' drive, then a 90 degree turn to hit the gap.
Now that I've covered the 3 open holes, the remaining holes are all heavily wooded with varying degrees of tightness. A Tight hyzer and Annie, a narrow gap to hit right off the tee, an elevated basket, all with ferns covering the majority of the rough. A very picturesque course.
#17 is the signature hole of the course, 565' Par 5 from the Whites and Golds, the drive has to cover open ground of 200-250' and be setup with a gap in the trees, to cross a pond that is a least 150' across. Another gap has to be hit on the other side of the pond, then another 100' or so past guardian trees to the basket. Even the Red tee is not a piece of cake, a tight gap to hit from beside the pond, then past the guardians. Yea, there should be a wide range of scores on this hole.
In addition to this course now being 18 holes, it looks like it is used for tournaments, designated tee signs and circle 1 whiskers are now part of it. I wondered who could possibly give this a 1.0 review ... then after reading The Valkyrie Kid's review, I can see why it deserved that. Well, it has survived and is thriving, I'd love to give it a 4.0 to balance out the first review, but it feels more like a 3.5. That is where the course is now, well worth a visit if you are in Quebec.

EDIT: thanks to pmay5 for letting me know about all the improvements that have been made to this course. I will leave my old review up and mostly just trust pmay5 to know what a 3.5 star course looks like.

My hat is off to the disc club of Quebec for getting this course built. It's awesome to have one in Quebec City. The course is currently made up of twelve tube tone targets. These handmade targets are set on slender logs. The teepads are natural and as of July 2015, # 1 and 11 have 2 x 4 borders built around them. The others just have a front branch or board. A couple are pretty rough. Tee signs are just a small ( 4" x 4") laminated piece of paper with hole number on it. Very basic,

Holes 1-3 play through the woods, then 4-8 play around the perimeter of a grassy field, tall grass, like hay, then the final four holes, 9-12' play back to the starting point near in the parking lot. This is good that the course starts and finishes at the same area. The holes in the woods are shorter (as short as 140') while the holes playing in the field give you a chance to air out your arm with #6 measuring 400' and # 8 listed at 500'.

# 10 & # 11 were both fun Ace runs. # 12 was an interesting hole with a fairly tight space which to try to throw your tee off through.

Tube tones instead of baskets.
These tubes make dull "thunk" sound when struck instead of nice metal sounds.
Natural teepads aren't great solution, especially in Quebec climate.
Fields holes (4-8) were long and boring.
Field was wet and boggy in late July after just a little shower.
No course sign to help new players find # 1.
Laminated holes won't last long.

EDIT: This just goes to show that miracles do happen. Way to step up Quebec. I always had faith in you.


I don't have much confidence that this course will be here in a year or two. As it was built extremely cheaply, I don't think much care and maintenance will go into its upkeep and it will likely just kind of fade away into the sunset.

That's really a shame because Quebec City needs to develop it's disc golf scene. I just don't believe this course or park is going to be the venue that gets Quebec excited about disc golf!
