The areas most woodsy course
Played: 132 Reviewed: 6
Pros: Course winds through nice woods. Easy to follow and very nice tees. Some challenging holes for any skill level. Lots of tightish fairway holes with a good fair mix of right hand left hand bias. Not real busy usually.
Cons: If it has rained much several tees areas become muddy and or mud puddles. They are nice tees but some were place in low spots. There can be other muddy areas as well. Mosquitoes can be bad in summer/fall.
Other Thoughts: Nice woods, course has some nice hillsides but none come into play. Elevation is only a factor on one hole. No really amazing holes... but several challenging ones.. a control course All and all I like this course.I do like a woodsy course and this certainly woodsy.

Pros: ICC is located on the campus of Illinois Central College. The course plays entirely in the woods. There are several sections of very nice pine trees. There is not 1 open shot of the 18 holes. The land is pretty flat.
There are several very fun and memorable holes.
Cement tee pads and Innova Discatcher Baskets.
This is a very technical course and requires accuracy.
2 sets of pins add variety of length. The long pins can play tough.
Tee signs are adequate. They are basic and have the distances.
Pretty easy to navigate.

Cons: The tee pads are very irratating. Although they are cement they were framed on top of the ground. They are 2 to 3 inches above the earth. Please be careful you don't break and ankle.
This course gets very repetitive.
This is par 54 wooded golf. Here are the results from a few years ago from mixed tees. SSA played at 50 -4 and 49 -5

Small parking area but no facilities close. There is a McDonald's Gas Station across the road.
There are no areas where you get a chance to open up and rip the disc.

Other Thoughts: This is not a beginner course. If you are not throwing straight this can become a game of pin ball and very frustrating for beginngers.
If you are in Peoria and have limited time i'd suggest skipping this course. Make sure you play Morton, Pekin, Eureka, and Bradely before this one.
I find myself skipping this course for others.
The Riverboat is not far from here.

Pros: -Very nice wooded course, a good mix of straight, anhyzer and hyzer shots
-Mostly flat but a few holes have slight elevation changes in the middle of the holes
-Nice tight fairways on almost all holes, they require a lot of accuracy.
-Concrete teepads
-Alternate pin locations
-Easy to navigate with paths from pins to next tee pads. But you get this great feeling of solitude at this course
-Practice basket by parking lot
-Some garbage cans on course
-Some natural "benches"

Cons: -Course gets a little redundant, which is a pretty common con for all courses that are completely in the woods
-No facilities (no bathrooms, water, pretty small parking area)
-Course was a bit on the short side. Local knowledge says that course lengthens and toughens substantially when pins are in the B placement
-Vandals have been a nuisance in the past, they pulled 14 out of the ground and threw it in a ravine
-I really don't like the signage at peoria area parks, this course had small yellow metal signs with a tee and a basket with a suggested route and hole length, sufficient but they don't depict any of the prominent hole landmarks. So it can show you anhyzer, but around which tree?

Other Thoughts: I liked this course a lot, it was a bit littered. But overall it was really pretty with a ton of pine and hardwood trees. I can't wait to play it in B position. I loved the privacy and solitude at this park.

Pros: This course was very fun to play. I played this course after I played the one in Washington and it's an entirely different world here even though it's only a ten minute drive away. It's very obvious that the disc golfers of Peoria love the sport because they take such good care of the courses. This course has a lot of trees as it's in a little forest and I'm pretty sure I hit at least 20 of them, haha.
The course is very easy to find because the practice basket (which had a little 10 feet radius green around it) is in the middle of the field touching the parking lot for the course.
It's impossible to get lost while navigating this course because the whole course follows a beautiful trail through the forest. I thought that it was pretty cool.

Cons: There was a lot of litter here, which made me a little sad. Some of the signs by the tees were missing and some of them had been written on with marker. As has been said before, the holes seem to get redundant very quickly because the whole course is in the forest area.
Other Thoughts: It's great that there's so many courses in such a little area in Peoria, but if you only have time to play one 18-hole course, I'd head down to Morton and play the Northwoods Park. This one doesn't have that much of a variety of shots and hitting trees gets very frustrating very quickly.

Pros: Well maintained course. Signs, tees, and baskets are all in tip top shape. A healthy variety of right/left handed holes. Being that the course is heavily wooded (and that it is), a player must be up for the challenge of throwing distance shots down tight & narrow fairways. Beginners shouldn't worry also, throws in the wooded areas can be easily made up.
Cons: Course begins to become redundant being that almost every shot is in the woods throwing down a narrow fairway either to the right or left.
Other Thoughts: Overall enjoyable course. Few courses within short driving distance of the course making it perfect for a day of disc golf for "travelers".
