A glorified Knollwood, Mandos make interesting but annoying, large piles of leaves will eat your disc. Very busy and many golfers have poor etiquette and will throw and fail to mention fore. Would not make a trip out there unless in the area.

lots of short holes with some mandos to make them harder... couple of open holes that you can throw drivers on but mostly a mid range coures

Like the holes themselves, but the holes are too close together. You wind up shooting into other shooters area.

Good use of the land but it does get kinda hecktic when everyone is out walking their dog and they don't realize they are standing in your line of fire. Probably the most beginner friendly course in Grand Rapids. About half woods half open. Bring a couple putters and just work on your short game.

short, cramped, crowded. no tee pads. some fun hazards and silly mandos make the course enjoyable, but too tiny and smashed together to be worth a return trip.

This course was mostly short with only a few longs holes,a lot of tight shots, many threw the woods, pretty tough mandos and wind. Are what this course has going for it. now the cons... there was a lot of trash everywhere, the ground was littered. beside all the people walking on the walkways and the constance rush from some local kids. on that note i give this course a C.

This was a short course without a lot of distance or variety. The middle of the course seemed like they just ran out of ideas (3 or 4 holes are just back and forth in a wide-open obstacle-free grassy area). The other golfers and park goers tend to get in the way of the tightly placed holes. It could have just been the day I was there but it doesn't seem like there's much respect for disc golf etiquette. My biggest problem with it would be the tee pads. They're dirt which isn't normally a big de ...

This is a truly mediocre course. Mostly short with annoying mando's. Several holes you are throwing right through where the next hole is tee'ing off. Also this is a busy park and a few holes you either throw towards pedestrians or over their walking path. I will say the layout is good with what little space they had to work with so it has good variety.

Old Farm did a great job using the land that they have. A mix of short, woods, open, water (4 holes) and many birdie opportunities. Old farm is a fun course to play and just down the road from JC park too.

They did a nice job to get some diffrent types of holes with the little land they had to work with. Not very difficult to play on most holes and really set up for backhand throwers but still fun. Its a good change of pace off of brewer. The other thing i didnt like is that there is no tee pads just dirt and some of the spots you tee off from are very uneven. It could be kept up a little better to make it alot nicer with the addition of some tee pads.

Course flows very nicely from hole to hole. Nice balance of wooded and field shots, not terribly challenging but trees may easily ruin a good round if you don't correctly place your shots. Good beginner course and if not too busy i have played 18 holes in 45 min or less.

I enjoy the course. It's short, but offers a lot. There are open holes to test your driving distance, there are wooded holes to test your accuracy, even water hazards!

Not a whole lot you can do to the layout of this course considering the property it's on. It is jammed packed, 8 casuals per hole in the summer. The only time to play it is in the winter when it is empty. It's a good beginner course with several odd holes mixed with a few good ones.

The course is very ameture overall. There are a few longer shots toward the middle of the course, and the mandos make it slightly more challenging, but it's more of a short range course that doesn't require any great deal of accuracy. The setting is nice. There are playgrounds and basketball courts, public restrooms, and one small body of water that causes a lot of apprehension at the 17th hole. The surrounding neighborhood is safe, mostly duplexes, and renters, which is pretty common for the Ke ...

Very enjoyable course. Mostly mid-range with a couple long range shots thrown in. Despite the pedestrian pathways and litter, the course is very well laid out considering the small size of the park. Definitely one of my favorites.

Nice, short coarse. Fun place to work on your mid-range accuracy.

The unfortunate thing is there is a ton of trash all over the place. I like to bring a trash bag with me when I play to help clean up and I filled it up on the first hole and was no where near getting all of it! If you play at Old Farm please help clean it up.

Cool course. Short, wooded and very technical because of the mandos. Some baskets are in poor condition or unlevel because of slight vandalism.

I have a love for this course because I feel it gives the eyes and brain a test. Many Hazards and many ways you have to see a flight pattern. I like this for a style challenge. Also its a clean park for the most part.
