The course is well-maintained. The design of the holes follow the ball golf course and then tuck the basket in some trees off of the green. Each hole demands some course management, because there are no pitch and putts. The location straddling the Green River is beautiful. There are two tee pads and two basket locations for each hole. The current location is marked on the sign for each hole. The ball hole flags have white flags while the disc golf holes are yellow. The flags are crucially helpful because of the long length on most holes.

The holes are long. Most holes are over 500 feet, and some as long as 1000. This is a design flaw in my opinion, but a good pro might love this place. A disc golf course should not be on the scale of a ball golf course. It is boring to use three throws in a wide open fairway with no obstacles and then finally have a par 3 to shape the last three shots. There are some ponds and water in play but easily avoidable and hard to lose a disc. The AM tee pads are sometimes unmarked and usually hard to find. The course is hard to navigate but arrows at each basket point you in a general direction and a map is needed to do the rest. It is pay to play with enforced tee times. The course runs through a campground which is confusing.

Unusually good course for a spot literally in the middle of nowhere.

Very well maintained.

Challenging to play, not out of reach for beginning players.

They hold tournaments here, drawing players from some hours away.

An attractive setting on a nice ball golf course.

Overnight camping amongst mature shade trees is right there, good water and restrooms.

Just that it's kind of in a desert oasis. Green River is more of a truck/ car fueling stop than anything, but still worth stopping.

It's pay-to-play, and it's worth it for anyone disc or ball golf minded. Maybe for a player who wouldn't mind pausing before getting tangled in the national park region.

Wear a hat and always bring drinking water. And, of course, rent the cart.

Disc Golf, Golf Carts, On Site Camping, Green River Access

Green River State Park offers an 18 hole Disc Golf course on a 9 hole balf course located just off Interstate 70 in Utah. This is an excellent place to stop and break up a long drive across this portion of Utah or your way too or from Colorado. Green River State Park offers a great place to spend the night after a long drive or a long day exploring the three National Parks nearby.

I used bullet points if you don't want to read the entire review.

Disc Golf on Balf Course
18 hole disc golf course set on a large 9 hole municipal ball golf course. The lush, green property borders the Green River. This course and the entire small town of Green River is an oasis surrounded by a barren, rocky landscape. The course winds around the lush campgrounds. The disc golf tees are completely separate from the balf tees. There are shorter Am tees on holes 1, 3 and 17.

Clubhouse/Parking Lot
There is a large parking area in front of the club house. Maybe "clubhouse" is too generous. This isn't a country club, it is a municipal balf course in a tiny little town in the middle of nowhere Utah. Start out by paying the disc golf fee in the main office. Here is where you can rent carts, get some drinks or buy some merchandise. Full restroom facilities. I honestly can't recall if they sold beer or not.

Pay to Play
Nicely manicured grass and beautiful landscape requires greens fees. At least they charge less for disc golf! Plus there is the cost of the cart. I would not want to play without the cart, it does cover a lot of ground. It is nice gentle terrain, so it wouldn't be difficult to walk.

Two Pin Placements
Every hole has two placements. As a general rule, the A placements are left or shorter than the B placements. It is really great that the Pro Tee Signs included the distances for all placements as well as an A/B indicator for the current placement.

Tees
The disc golf tees are completely separate from the balf tees. All Pro tees had signs. Tees are marked with small honeycomb rubber mats. The Pro disc golf mats have a blue edge to identify the tee area. Am Tees have a white edge. The mats are only three feet by three feet, so they are small. However, the rest of the tee area is beautifully manicured grass. Holes 1, 3 and 17 have a second set of Am tees.

Signs
Pro disc golf tees all have disc golf specific tee signs. This course does not borrow the balf signs and distances. The signs had accurate graphics and included the distances for both pin placements. A letter A or B was bolted to the sign pole to indicate which pin placement was being used. I think when you are playing for a round, this kind of detail is important.

Navigation
Since course follows the balf course, navigation is pretty easy. They also have nice printed scorecards with maps and all distances in the clubhouse.

All 18 in a row
The course follows the 9 hole course and does not return to the main parking area until Hole 18. If you are camping, you can stop by your campsite during the round. If you have a cart, you can always drive back to the clubhouse if you need more supplies.

Carts
I would recommend renting the golf carts. Even though the course is fairly compact, it is pretty long. This is not a short executive balf course.

Kids, Carts and Strollers
Well, rent a cart. Kids will have more fun hanging out in the golf cart. If the budget doesn't allow a cart, it is very disc golf cart friendly. Course is too long for a youngster to play along without a cart.

Losing Discs
Well, there is water in play on a few holes. The river does not come into play, but there are a couple of ponds on the property. If you are unfortunate and throw into one of the ponds, you could lose a disc.

Restrooms
There are full service restrooms in the clubhouse. While out on the course, there is a full service campground restroom between disc golf holes 8 and 9. Other campground restrooms can be accessed easily, especially if you have a cart.

Camping on site
This is not camping near by, this is camping right here in the middle of the balf course. There is a separate fee for the state park/campgrounds and that fee also includes access to the Green River. The disc golf course plays around the lush and shady campground. More on campgrounds under other comments below.

There really are not a lot of cons or a lot of room for improvement.

Pay to play
If you don't like to pay, this could be a con. Not all disc golf is free, especially if you want beautifully manicured fairways and carts.

Small rubber tees
Most tees are small 3 x 3 honeycomb rubber mats. If you don't like natural grass tees this could be a con for you. I love golf course grass tees.

Layout
There is not much elevation or traditional disc golf challenges. The design is a little tame, but understandable given the land.

Camping ON site.
Again, you are camping in the middle of the disc golf/balf course. This campground has super large and grassy campsites and several nice and well maintained restroom/shower facilities. Most of the golf course is fenced off from the campground, but disc golf holes 2, 7, 8, 12 and 13 are right next to the campsites. You can see my blue tent in the photos for Hole 8. Holes 7 and 8 are next to the river on one side and next to sites 25 -30 on the other. Campsites 41 -48 are right next to the fairways for 12 & 13, but these are tiny campsites for last minute arrivals. There is a cabin for rent located near Tee 9. However, the cabin doesn't have a bathroom inside, you still have to use the campground restrooms if you rent this. I will absolutely stay at this campground if I am driving through this part of Utah again. Camping at Green River makes a much less expensive base camp for exploring the nearby National Parks. You can reserve online though Reserve America.

On the Green River
Holes 7 through 9 play along the Green River. The river does not really come into play as this is a giant balf couse. On the walk from 8 to 9, there is a boat ramp and river access for park users. I was going to launch my kayak here as the river is nice and easy. Sometimes there just are not enough hours in the day to do everything. Disc Golf usually wins when I have to choose between activities.

Rating
Since I am from Southern California, I have had the opportunity to play plenty of disc golf/balf courses. This course does a great job with flow and utilizing the sides of the fairways. Play generally stays away from the greens. It sure is a wonderful green oasis in the middle of such a vast rocky landscape. It has up to date signs, carts and some distance challenge. It has more amenities than most local dg/balf courses I play. The layout I played wasn't super exciting or challenging. However, it does offer two placements on every hole. Rating is between 3.5 and 4.0. I will round up and give this one 4 discs. I will definitely stay and play here again on my next trip through this part of Utah.

Well groomed course. Start on hole 18 and end on 17.

First tee time 7 AM and last tee time 6 PM (Summer hours)

Bring your big arm and step up to get s cart.

Course should start on 18 so you do not have to start by throwing 700 feet.

No practice basket; however 18 could be used.

It took me as a single player yielding to one foursome of ball golfers just over an hour to play 18 with a cart.

They have some discs for sale in the pro shop. They have some logo clothing items, hats, and towels.

Played it to break up a 8 hour drive and my wife and I liked this course so much we stopped to play it again on the way home. It was very reasonably priced even getting snacks, beers and two carts from the pro shop.
The layout was great! Water in play but very easily avoided. The OB golf course greens were also in play but not right next to the basket like I've experienced on other golf courses, rather the basket was well past them where the pins we played were set. This resulted in only bad shots hitting an OB golf green and not a result of an unlucky roll or skip. The course looked great and is well maintained. As expected a majority of the holes were long but it also had a few nice shorter holes that required a specific type of shot to birdie. I love the Discatcher Pro 28's! Always a welcome sight! Signage was good and told you what pin location was set.

The Tee pads were 2'x2' rubber mats for your plant foot that I found a bit strange but didn't hinder the throw at all. With the exception of an elevated concrete tee on 7. Hole 10 was the only tee area I didn't find sufficient for the hole.
Holes 15 & 18 were not up to the standard of the rest of the course though I didn't look for the alternate pin locations. I'd be tempted to start on 18 & finish on 17 in the future. This would also flow a bit better if you are driving the golf cart to your car to load up. It also gives you a more reasonable hole to start on versus the monster #1 & leaves you with an epic finishing on hole #17.
No practice basket that I saw, look to warm up on 18's pin?
We encountered lots of mosquitoes around hole 4, drove the carts all the way back to the car to get repellent only to find that was the only bad area on the course.
My wife enjoyed it but I feel like it was designed for a players with a minimum of a 400' golf shot, and those are the players who will get the most enjoyment from the blue tees on this course. Only 3 holes have red tees while the rest have an adjusted par rather than an am tees.
The par 4 & par 5 holes or 1 & 9 were just long "throw as far as you can", generally you don't need to hit a landing zone. with the exception hole 2, that the course scorecard has listed as a par 3...

This golf course is part of Green River State Park with great shaded grassy camp sites and located just under an hour from Moab, while being a bit cooler temperature. I'm keeping this in mind for a future trip to camp, throw discs and play in the river at green river and do some Jeep'n and mountain biking in Moab. Would be a great trip to stay a night here and a night at Base Camp Adventure Lodge outside Moab. This is a truly special part of the country.
With my wife and I each in a cart with one of our boys who had been in a car all morning (getting out to run around ever time we stopped to throw) it took us 3 hours to play blind with that long trip back to the car. On our second round we got it done in 2 hours.

Perfectly manicured easy to follow layout. Golf carts and a great staff. Good amount of trees with some hills around the greens. Lots and lots of fun.

Don't know if any.

Pay to Play. Sets on a golf course, has a nice flow and u can play with ball golfers.
