Good use of space on this small beginner course. Urban feel conveniently located near Western Michigan University.Missing chain links from baskets, Only one concrete tee on hole one are negatives and after it rains there are very few tee's that are not flooded. Pro's tend to like it for the ace run possibilities on almost every hole.

Short course and has been cleaned up a lot over the last two years. Ace and Birdie runs on all holes. Swampy water on two holes that you do not want to throw into. Good place to practice some upshots in light woods and putting with trees.

Not a bad course just needs a lot of love and attention. Would get a better rating if it had better pads or cement ones. Not as much trash as I remember (could be covered in leaves) but not to bad. Really short, great for beginners or if you need to kill a hour or less.

This is a good course for training new disc golfers. There always seems to be good players and dealers hanging around so you can pick their brains on discs and technique.

Knollwood is a cool little course. They made some interesting holes out of the land they had to work with. College folk love to get D. Runk here.

Course isn't very well laid out. Too short of holes, swamp/water everywhere, trash everywhere, and holes cross over other tee pads. I had to dodged like 3 incoming discs.

This is my favorite course ever. I lived just down the street so I played at least 36 holes a day when I was at WMU. Its more challenging than it looks and levels the field for people who cant throw a mile on thier drive. I learned to putt and weave trees at this course and its made my short game much better. The only reason I give a b+ is because of the tee boxes (or lack of), the mud in the spring, and the numerous discs the water holes have eaten up on me. I miss playing there now that I no longer live in Kzoo.

Not necessarily a bad course, but does need improvement and some TLC. Good use of space provided, with all holes being short but technical through tree lines. Lack of signs and posts really can hinder a round, especially in the winter as I played it. Lots of downed trees that could be moved out of the way. Good course to work on short game and angles. In the summer, this is definitely a putter and midrange course, if not just a putter course. Baskets are oin good shape, just older outdated models and mounted much higher than regulation height.

Not a big fan of this course. Not very well kept in my opinion. The holes (and routes) aren't very well defined.

Played here hundreds of times. Not the cleanest or well kept park, but we do our best. Needs some new tee boxes and signage.

Used to play here a lot for quick games, the course has been cleaned up a lot. There are still lots of college age kids that come to smoke weed kick them out and it would be a nice beginner friendly course almost every hole is a simple and takes a shot or two to be under the basket. There are a lot of trees down but that's not Kalamazoo's first priority to handle. The baskets are older but still in good condition. Mid range a regular driver and a putter are all you need if that. If you are looking for a short round knoll wood is a little faster than airzoo

No tee pads, and a lot of trash from the college children, also baskets are set up at weird different heights ... Baskets are innova pro, not the greatest

This is what happens when you mix a disc golf course with a crack house. I played in a "tournament" here on 4/1 and there were piles of trash and broken glass everywhere. There is no pride in this course, just an old mattress, used tires, and a couple of holes that incorporate a very deep cesspool as a "water hazard".
Moving past the filth, the baskets are all at least a foot too high and have a really strange chain configuration, there is only one concrete tee pad, and leave your drivers a ...

The surroundings could be beautiful but it's littered with trash, much of which is broken glass (watch your step!). I barely knew where hole 1 was, let alone the next 17. There are no signs at all and the paths from hole to hole aren't very clear. Most holes are fairly short and give you a good chance to par or birdie on. It's a great course to learn on but would probably be fairly boring to a more skilled player.

I find it interesting that some people giving reviews claim there is a lack of pride in the course, we have been running clean up events here for four years, it gets a little difficult to maintain when the city of Kalamazoo does not bother to empty its own garbage cans. The fact is that this is a great course for beginners, yes, it lacks distance, but no, none of the holes "overlap" each other and there are plenty of chances for learning the more technical side of shooting. Tournaments are run w ...
