Pros: Challenging course. Beautiful scenery and friendly people. Concrete tee boxes w/ well maintained baskets. Wooded areas and diverse terrain elevations/obstacles. Great workout for both your body and the playability of your game. Some benches provided for resting. And a clean park overall.
Cons: if I recall correctly one of the holes runs along an adjacent hole (10) and if you shank it to the the left it is hard to recover the disc if lost (being time spent as you play 2-3 holes before ge ...

Played in the rain and it was awesome! Hole 2 with the water hazard is the best, high stakes shot! Good mixture of open fields and tight tree alleys.

Awesome course! Love the elevation changes and the mixture of n and out of the woods holes. Felt a lil cramped and the last three cliff holes were humbling. Needed help w direction too... Alll around a great course that i would travel to just to play.

Great course! Other than the bathrooms spread to far apart the amenitys are good. Plenty of benches at each hole and a nice picnic area far away enough from the disc golf course to be out of danger. NOT A NOVICE COURSE! They change the pin placements alot so know the course before playing.

The thing I've always loved about this course is that you need every disc & shot in your bag. Long, short, left, right. It can be easy on one day, & crazy difficult the next.

I Loved it !!. Nice concrete tee pads,signs at all holes,very Beautiful Scenery throughout, it has longs, shorts,ups ,downs ,lefts and rights, this course will really test your game. Trees and more trees. Very challenging 18 holes. Oh and bring your boots it gets muddy,and $5.00 for parking *unless you have a Oregon State Park/Forest Pass...Well worth the short drive out to Troutdale.

Dabney kicks ass, well worth the drive - I make it out there a few times a week and usually play a couple games. Dabney has taught me the need for forehand shots as well as the need for utilizing various discs. Despite playing regularly, I still sacrifice discs to the pond on 2 and have lost them in the creek on 5 when there is heavy flow.

Might seem a little frustrating playing at first but once you get the hang of the course it's great. Nice variety of technical shots. Little muddy but what course isn't. I like the pond on #2 but most everyone else seems to skip it.

This course is awesome! Great variation in types of throws, IE, water mando, technical, open, elevation changes, etc.. absolutely love the variety. Only thing I didn't like was the way that many fairways in opposing directions were so close; just because the other fairway is a mando doesn't mean that someone isn't going to throw right at you! On accident of course... Oh, and the tee signs are inaccurate.

Had a great time at this course. There is a great mix of shots here that keep the game very interesting. Seems to be a course that won't be flooded in the winter.

a very challenging course to play, it will force you to throw a variety of shots as the course plays through the park it has uphill and downhill shots, water shots, forehand backhand and overhand shots just about everything you could ask for all that being said it is a terrible course for tournament play on some of the lower holes play right next to each other its very difficult to putt when others are ripping drives right past you but a great course for casual play and training

This course kicked my ass! Can't wait to get revenge. Must play if you live in oregon. First couple holes have an urban feel. Then it goes open field, couple up in an orchird, back to field, then finishes in a forest setting. Great course just be ready to find parking if you arrive later in the day. As this is a very popular swim spot. Concrete tee pads w/ signed holes. Plan a couple rounds here as it is a challenging course you will want to play twice.

This is a great course, may get a bit crowded and overall its pretty much 3 pars the whole way,but this place has such a great variety of shots, the water hazard on hole 3, and a mess of trees and the canyon of doom on the back 9....a must play!!

Great course with mainly technical shots. The last few holes are bad if you go off the cliff, but overall is a fun course

Love this course. I used to play here when I worked in Gresham and it is a blast! A little whooped from the hill climbs but overall I LOVE THIS COURSE. PS I hate hole 2; not because its a bad hole because I have a hell of time making it over the pond!

Great course, a solid variety of terrain with trees, water and elevation change. Forces a variety of throws for the player. Dabney is well maintained with a great practice area. Some of the signage could be improved. Alternate pin positions add to the appeal. This course has a propensity for windy conditions and can become almost unplayable. It is nice to play somewhere that is solely a disc golf course.

Dabney will make you play most discs in your bag. It will make you think about most shots. Very well designed course with everything you would want in a course. Every hole has multiple pin placements and are changed often. Only con with this course is the signs are not always accurate due to the changing of the pins making it very tough (especially for people who are new to the course) to navigate your way through the holes and the course itself. Dabney is one of my favorites in the greater Portland area.

Badass course with elevation changes on 300+ foot holes. Back nine had some shorter duece and putter drives. Apparently most have multiple pin placements. a couple wide open 420ft. And water on 1 or 2 holes. Good mix of difficulty with some "should be" birdies.

This is a GREAT course! This is closer to what I feel disc golf in the Northwest should be about; moss, ponds and stinging nettles! Dabney is both in a beautiful setting and nifty part of the northern Willamette valley. The two main layouts make of a good variety of technical and arm-stretching shots without digressing into the "woods-field-woods-field" pattern. Sloppy in the winter (and spring, parts of summer and fall...it is Oregon after all). In the spring and summer there are some great pla ...

I was not impressed with Dabney at all. It felt like it could have been an awsome course, but no one cared to take it to that level. It was over grown, and on half the holes there seemed to be no path to the basket what so ever. Make sure to walk the holes to determine pin location (the signs are not always accurate), and use a spotter on blind shots. This place will eat discs if you are not careful.

Incredibly overgrown, swampy and buggy even in the summer months. Some of the Par 3s should be 4s in my opinion. Wear long pants cuz if you go off the narrow fairways you well be in hip deep sting nettle and blackberry bushes on most holes. Spotters are a must.
