Reviewed: Played on:Nov 3, 2021 Played the course:once

Pros:

- great tee signs with all the information you could need
- good quality baskets with numbers on them
- quick play 9 holes, parking right by hole 1
- a couple of "forced" lines that are pretty fun

Cons:

- tee pads rubber and the course is fairly sandy making then quite slick
- the course is very crammed in between a parking lot and the road and then plays up against a fence line.
- a drainage ditch runs right next to the course and it smells awful
- hole 9 is just a 400+ foot drive across the dirt parking lot

Other Thoughts:

Not a terrible course but not good either. Might not be worth your time if you aren't in the area.

Loneliest Course in America 2+ years

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

Pros:

The course is located just a short drive off of highway 50 in the middle of Nevada. Highway 50 being nicknamed "the loneliest highway in America" must make this the loneliest course then right, east bound out of town its about 150 miles to another town, this is a fairly remote city, the county seat of a fairly remote county in a fairly sparsely populated state, but it is growing. The course is located in a typical open desert city park that shares its space with the local county fairgrounds. In addition to the fairgrounds, with its stadiums, stands, and rodeo grounds, the park features numerous baseball, soccer, and football fields along with horseshoe pits and tennis courts. The park has a large indoor aquatic center and an obstacle challenge court. The county park offices are also located on site along with restrooms and a port-a-potty. With the fairground on site there is plenty of parking with several hundred parking spots. The course is kind of plopped down right in the middle of all this with the first hole being right in the middle of the obstacle challenge course area and the rest of the course playing though and between all the other activities in the park. There are adequate rubber mat tee pads and 9 Mach v baskets. There really aren't a whole lot of pros here other than the course may serve as a somewhat introduction to the game and a few chances at aces on the fairly short holes.

Cons:

I could pick on this little course and write a ton here but why?, it is, what it is, a multi-use park with a small rec course running through it. You can look at the pictures in media and get the gist. It plays too close to roads, other activities, parking lot is used for a fairway, buildings used for obstacles, navigation not intuitive, etc., etc.

Other Thoughts:

Played several rounds here first thing in the morning and had the entire park to ourselves. Without anything else going on to worry about, we actually enjoyed ourselves throwing ace runs around all the crazy obstacles and running baskets in the open areas. This course will hopefully help ignite an interest in disc golf in the community and provide some relief from boredom for players who happen to be in Fallon, but you can safely put this course in the not worth traveling to and not lose any sleep over it.
