Kelly Ridge Disc Golf Course Is Mostly Confusing When You Are Trying To Navigate It! 2+ years
Reviewed:
Played on:Feb 27, 2020
Played the course:once
Pros:
I so glad I bucked up for the cart & golf package ($16) because I would have walked for miles attempting to find my way around this course. It was fun zipping around in the little cart trying to locate the tee pads. They're often tough to find especially when there NO tee signs to help you spot them. When I failed to locate a pad or the little ribbons, I just teed off from wherever I wanted on my little safari round.
This was once a regular golf course but apparently went belly up years ago. Judging by the houses that border the course, this was never Pebble Beach but more like a low end municipal course. Everything (And I mean everything) connected with this course has starting to decay and deteriorate. The pro shop is not open so you pay your money at the bar. The cart shed looks to have more derelict carts than running carts. A maintenance shed in the course has suffered a fire and much equipment and mowers etc. are left there in charred blackened remains. The asphalt cart path throughout the course is starting to crack. I did see five deer hanging out in one area. They didn't look as derelict as the rest of their surroundings.
They handed me a map before I set off. It wasn't very helpful at all. Without any tee signs, you're kind of running without lights. I think I stayed on course for about the first six holes before going rogue and basically playing my own safari round the rest of the way.

Cons:
$16 to play and rent a cart.
General unkept/rundown experience.
No signage.
Hit or miss on the green carpet pads.
Typical golf course disc golf. Lots of mediocre holes. Lots of long, wide open boring holes.
Not a natural flow to course.

Other Thoughts:
This course can't possibly survive with just it's disc golf business only. They can't possibly continue to maintain this course and keep the carts running, pro shop open, etc. etc. etc. I can't imagine parceling off the land and selling it individually or in plots. And the neighboring houses certainly aren't upscale enough to help. I would think the only option the current owners might have is to donate the property to the city for a park and let them take over the care and maintenance
