Nicely Contrasts the Blue Course

Pros: 27 holes of good, challenging disc golf in another beautiful PA State Park. A small shop in the marina sells discs and drinks. Multiple bathrooms are on site. All baskets work well, and there are multiple marked tee off areas for pro and amateur levels of play. Very nice variety- open shots, moderately wooded shots and a couple of very tight tunnel shots. Navigation not bad. Good use of elevation. Scenic views of the marina and lake-views a bit reminiscent of Nockamixon.
Cons: The biggest con to me is the lack of quality signage. A course of this caliber should absolutely have them, and it would add immeasurably to the playing experience. More navigational arrows would be helpful. Several tee pads starting to show their wear. Wind can absolutely wreak havoc on your round. There is the possibility other park users can get in your way, and errant throws could wind up in a parking lot.
Other Thoughts: Although I am a bigger fan of wooded, technical courses, I actually liked the red course at Codorus better for its variety in both length and layout. Plus, the scenery here on much of the course is wonderful. Though navigation is not terrible, there is actually TOO MUCH here (CC and XC holes in addition to the red and blue courses) for there not to be a quality map on the premises at all times. Codorus Red calls upon you to throw a variety of shots while avoiding the pitfalls (water, wind, rough, parking lots) that can doom your round.
Water and rough off the fairway could come into play but are not oppressive and can be avoided with a sound approach to your game. Though beautiful, Codorus State Park is not an easy drive and is way off the beaten path to and from most places, so be prepared. With 54 total holes plus a mini disc golf curse on the premises, Codorus has plenty to keep you busy.

Great Course 
Pros: As a local I play this course almost 60 times during summer break.
Excellent course for all levels of players.
- Marina shop sits between courses and sells drinks and some of the newer and nicer discs Innova has to offer (I.E. Star, Champion, Blizzard, StarLite, and Rainbow Champion)
- Multiple Tees for Am and Pro
- Holes that require an assortment of throw
- Multiple holes where you can air it out (4, 9, 12, the entire back loop of 5 holes)
- Usually well maintained by Park Maintenance

Cons: Only a few downsides:
- Lake Holes (4 & 5) can become very windy on summer evenings
- During the summer, hole 4 is very prone to sunbathers and swimmers so watch out
- The wooded holes are host to all kinds of poison so disc hunting can be sketchy

Other Thoughts: When coupled in with the 18 hole Blue Course, the 9 hole Cross Country Course, and the 9 hole Gold X Course, Codorus could easily be one of the top courses on the east coast. I highly recommend playing, and there are alway locals out to play with. Plus a short drive to the 2 Pinchot Park course in Dover, PA and the Creeping Creek course in Hampstead, MD

Great Disc Golf Mecca
Pros: The club at this [ark really knowa what they are doing. Great course with all of the dynamics that make a couse above average for me. Also there is a huge lake that several courses play around. Take a dip if you are here in the summer time.
Cons: Too many courses to play all of them twice in a day.

Recreational Round
Pros: As the other reviews describe, the Red Course is scenic with lovely views of the lake. My wife and played on a perfect sunny day with light wind.
Number #15 is a good long hole with a challenging basket and nice vistas of the marina.
Another pro, the marina sells discs and drinks.
Have a seat on the bench at #17 and admire the view before bombing your drive down #18.
Multiple tees per hole in good shape. Grass was well-cut, there were a good many players out.

Cons: As hole #4 plays along the lake, there was a family spread out by the basket fishing. We just walked to the next tee.
The two guys behind us made another choice. One threw into the family and the other threw into the lake.
#5 was unplayable with another family having a picnic.
Even with our printed map the signage was questionable so we let the two guys behind us play through on #7.
On #8 the first guy hit a moving car in the parking lot. On #9 BOTH guys hit cars in the parking lot.
The shots are not that tough and the lots were virtually empty, so some bad luck was involved.
My wife and I played them without incident, yet if the lots were full, we would have just skipped those two holes.
A couple sleeping near the basket on #13 meant we skipped that hole too.

Other Thoughts: The mini disc golf course located by the #1 tee is a must-see.
Overall, very solid course. I would try to get out early to beat the crowds otherwise you will likely be skipping holes like we did due to the people or cars in the way.

Good times Pros: Fun course, very scenic with the lake in the distance. TONS of elevation, some challenging up hill throws and some nice long down hill shots.
The course was well maintained, baskets were in good working order.
The course was well maintained, baskets were in good working order.
Cons: Nothing too serious, a couple of holes where the fairway gets tight and you are throwing near cars and people. This was my first time playing this course and navigation was pretty easy for the most part, only needed to bust out the map a couple of times.
Other Thoughts: I enjoyed the Blue Course slightly better, but I prefer a course with more trees and obstacles, the Red Course has more open holes with more elevation. So pick your poison....both will provide you with a good time though.
Pros: i enjoyed this course very much. it was a nice long fun course. if i didn't have to type so much i would have stopped by now
Cons: there aren't many cons to put about this course. the only one i can think of is that it was hard to drink beer on the cours

Nice change of course
Pros: Red Course
It does not get any better in terms of scenery while playing the Red course. Grounds very well maintained. Reminded me more of a real golf course. Although the red course is mostly open, the wind conditions can offer challenges like no other course you have played. I played in 20+ mph winds and every shot seemed unpredictable. Good use of elevation changes and well placed baskets near the lake to make the course a joy to play. Most of the holes you can crank up the driver without concerning hitting cars. Tee pads clearly marked, whole signs to next whole extremely helpful, baskets numbered correctly.
Red CC Course
Complete change of course from the Red course that is one tough challenging wooded course. Even though it is heavily wooded there is still a lot of clearing around the hole so it makes it easy to find your disc. Holes are grouped in a cluster so it's not far to walk to the next hole. Equally difficult for left or right handed. Tee markers are different color and clearly marked CC, Great idea.

Cons: Red Course
I just hate playing near cars, parking lots. Nothing could be worse than a bad throw hitting someone's car and all the aftermath of paying for it. If there is a chance I could hit one then I just simply skip the hole. The red course in particular will be played mostly by beginners who are most likely to hit them. Good thing is that there are only a few holes on the red course where they come into play. Some holes play around roads but you can wait for cars to pass.
Red CC
Hole 3, if you're off course, be very careful you don't poke your eye out. It would be nice if someone could trim off some of those lower dead branches on the pines. Need a path or more direction arrows going from 3 to 4th hole. Baskets little bit hard to locate if playing the first time.

Other Thoughts: It's a very open course but I think it is a nice change of course that you just don't get with the rest of the 36 holes. Defiantly makes you consider caring heaver or more wind resistant disc in your bag! I would advise playing the red course early in the morning before more cars arrive. I drove up from Annapolis, MD to play Codorus and it was well worth the drive. I will be back!

blue is better 
Pros: first 9 are pretty. very windy.
Cons: middle 9 are cool if you like to throw around parking lots. I can't imagine playing this course on weekends when the parking lots are full. back 9 are absurdly difficult.

Nice course, nice park
Pros: Set in a very nice park with many holes running along the water.
Cons: Some holes run through picnic areas and near parking and traffic. Next holes were somewhat difficult to find. The map helped some but it could be better marked.
Other Thoughts: I'm a beginner and preferred this course over the more technical Blue Course. I would play Red first and Blue second.

Give me 9 CC's of extra disc golf holes! Stat! 
Pros: - Great views of the lake the rest of the park! I love how some of the holes have the lake in play. These water hazards definitely mess with your head.
- Nice tee variety with the am and pro tees; signage, teepads, and baskets are all in good condition.
- A great place to air our your discs, although this can get boring after awhile (see cons)
- #14 is my favorite hole. The double mando really requires focus and concentration -- not to mention dodging a buinch of trees. Once you clear the tight mando, you still have a good distance to the basket. Fantastic!
- As I said in my cons, the first 18 are somewhat redundant and lack any idiosyncrasy. However, the last nine holes (CC1-9) are phenomenal! No hold is alike, and you must contend with ultra-tight wooded pines, the lake, 90-degree doglegs, thick brush, and a cemetery! These are some of the best holes I've played on any course and it's a shame there's only nine of them. These really help bump up the Red Course and make it a must-play.

Cons: The first 18 holes are nothing to write home about. Few, if any, are memorable ones. It's just a lot of drives up and down hills with few obstacles in the way.
- I'm not a big fan of the criss-crossing nature of the holes from 10-13. I can see interruptions happening on these holes when it's busy.
- Some holes play very close to the parking lot and walkways. Mandos are in place to discourage you from throwing, but the likelihood is still high. Take #15, for instance. It plays pretty close to a road and parking lot, and one of my valkyires almost hit a car parked there. Yikes!
- Not a whole lot in terms of technical/wooded holes or extreme doglegs. I'd like to take some from the Blue Course and transplant it here!
- Windy! Playing here versus the blue course is like night and day in this regard. Make sure to pack an overstable disc like a firebird or a wasp to compensate for this factor.

Other Thoughts: Codorus Red would be a 2.5 without the CC holes, but they're so fantastic that they really bump up the course's fun and beauty factor! All in all, with the CC holes, nice views of the lake, great amenities, and 27 chances to smack chains, it's a great disc golf experience.
Make a day trip out of it and play all 54! Plus the mini holes!
