Description
Putter-only 9-hole course that plays around the base of Marquette Mountain Resort. The main attraction of this course is the baskets, which are all different artistic pieces made of scrap metal. All baskets catch discs well. Layout is currently wide open with all holes around 100'. The resort plans to expand the layout to a full-fledged course in the future, and also add nine more baskets.
Course is currently only available when the on-site restaurant (the "Tbar") is open. Refer to course webpage linked below for up-to-date information. Can also borrow discs from the Tbar.
Five of the art baskets were originally created for an entry in the Artprize 2022 competition in Grand Rapids, MI (search for extinct course "Art Prize 2022 #135" here on DGCR). After the competition ended, Marquette Mountain purchased the five art baskets and commissioned the same artist (Stacy Hines) to make the remaining four.
