Other Thoughts: We went early in the morning and they had the sprinklers on the whole time we played. There are many holes that follow the running path and I could see that being an issue. I enjoyed the course but passed up playing it again.

College of Southern Idaho
Pros: The College of Southern Idaho makes use of their beautiful campus with this awesome 18 hole course.
The Tee's and signs are well maintained and provide the proper hole information (Pinnacle location, Par # and visual to next Tee)
The fairways are always groomed and people do a good job of cleaning up after their animals.
OB is marked by the Creek that runs adjacent the whole course, the opposite bike path that is covered with tree bark and a few parking lots and access roads.
The course has a moderate amount of trees that you play around, most with long fairways and a couple with hills that make it interesting.
Nothing too special or overly elaborate on this course but it is a very very solid intermediate course and the environment makes it all the more enjoyable.

Cons: The Creek is very easy to lose discs in. Although they do make a somewhat feeble attempt to keep the bank long with grass as an effort to slow discs down, they still go in.
If you don't mind getting soaked it's usually not too hard to find your disc laying on the bottom with the rocks.
And i'd recommend that if you do want your disc back not waiting till the end of the round because people do float it with the soul purpose of finding and selling them.

Other Thoughts: Water and facilities are located at the softball fields that can be found directly across the parking lot from Tee 1.

Excellent course. One of best in Idaho.
Pros: Excellent course for beginners and avid disc golfers alike. Well marked with signs, pads, and baskets. Very well maintained fairways. Course has a variety of different shots (hyzer/anhyzer) and hole length to keep it fresh. Small amount of elevation gain. One of the best courses in Idaho.
Cons: Streams run through the entire course, but are not a nuisance. Although each hole is different, there are not many unique holes. The holes are well laid out, but no signature holes that really make the course stand out. Course needs multiple basket placements; course never changes.
Other Thoughts: Excellent course; can be played many times. Highly recommended for beginners and pros alike.

CSI
Played: 178 Reviewed: 175 Exp: 9.9 Years
Pros: The CSI campus course is a good course with some fun holes. The course plays all along a fast running creek that splits the green grass fairways and is in play in all most all of the holes out here, don't worry though because you should be able to get your disc back although if it floats the current will take it down stream so this is one of the rare instances when a non floating disc is better in the water. The designers did an excellent job of using the creek and walking paths as out of bounds markers combined with good pin positions to make some challenging holes. There is just enough elevation on a couple of holes to make some of the more open throws more fun and challenging. This course is best suited for advanced players but I think that beginning players are going to have a good time as the course isn't extremely difficult. Pros over time will more than likely find the course boring. The course really ends strong with holes fifteen through eighteen being the best holes on the course in my opinion. Hole fifteen is a long par four hole with a basket tucked back in the trees and eighteen is the other par four hole with trees strategically placed and the stream on the right to make you pick a good spot to land and a safe route. Tee signs and concrete pads are present and navigation is pretty easy so you won't be searching for hours instead of playing Disc Golf.
Cons: Holes one through three are my biggest gripe about this course. Hole one just doesn't thrill me by throwing over or to the side of a picnic shelter and isn't really much of a challenge, I also see issues when people are using the shelter which seems like it could be often in the Summer time. The basket for hole two is put in the middle of a bunch of trees leaving no way to get to the basket with skill; this is something I rarely complain about but the fairway is wide open and the basket is impossible to penetrate with any kind of skillful throw, you just have to throw at it and hope your disc gets through and close to the basket. Hole three is probably the best of the first couple of bad holes. It has the creek on the left and a barbed wire fence of the National Guard on the right and it's a left to right so RHBH players who try to turn one over and hyzer out can land in the water which is a good feature but again like hole two the basket location is tucked behind some trees at the end of the throw. Normally I like more trees but I think moving this basket a little bit closer to the water and near the other tree on the left would have been a better location for this hole.
Other Thoughts: This is a very good course overall that you could enjoy as a home course and make your game better. This is a good place to stop by on a road trip, especially when combined with Rock Creek Park this is a good spot in the road between Boise and Pocatello. Just a note for the bathroom is that it is near the Baseball field over by the playground across from the parking lot.

Played: 221 Reviewed: 36 Exp: 4 Years
Pros: Large parking lot, restrooms, water, nice tee signs, shaped concrete pads, easy navigation, course flows good, great use of creek for hazards and O.B., well maintained grounds, little underbrush, friendly locals, never crowded and FREE!
Cons: Sprinklers were on throughout the course starting on Hole#1 tee pad! The O.B. area next to hole #4 has razor wire fence and military equipment with posted signs asking not to trespass. On hole #5 if you take the hyzer route your line is over a road and has potential hazards.
Other Thoughts: This is a real fun course that satisfies the advanced player with 16 out of the 18 holes risking the water hazards and offers short lines for the beginner. Most of the time if you fall a victim of the creek you can usually find your disc 15-20 feet downstream from where it entered.The course has great flow and is lightly wooded with tasteful pin placements. The few times that I have played here it has not been crowded and only a short distance from the Hwy making it a great oppurtunity to stretch your legs and get a quick game in and a break from the road.

Pros: Great course. Winds through a small nicely kept park with rolling hills. Despite the park's small size, the course was very well laid out and the physical features were well utilized.
A small but quick running creek runs through the length of the course and provides a good challenge.
Hole positions provide opportunity for getting creative with your shots.
Great signs at every teepad showing the hole, length, par, and directions to the next hole. I pleyed by myself and had no problem finding my way around the course.
Elevation changes! Im used to the flat course in Boise, so some hills were fun.
Im not a local so Im not sure of the usual traffic, but it was utterly deserted the morning I played. Just some college kids on the paths and a few people walking their dogs.

Cons: Nothing major to complain about!
The creek was running full blast, as it had rained all night and morning. It gobbled up a one of my discs... A floating disc probably wouldnt help, unless you like to run...
Marny holes are ~300ft or so, which was great for my noodle arm, but the course lacks lots of long holes for the big bombers.

Other Thoughts: Really fun course. I would recommend it to any one passing through Twin.
I found a few shops in town that sell discs too: Claudes and Donnely Sports.

Pros: The couse is very well maintained, the tee signs are informative and its a nice layout with some pretty sweet shots. I like the use of the water and like the use of trees.
Cons: Well, the use of the water is both a pro and con. I bet once you play the course a bit, the water isnt that much of a hazard, but it was pretty intimidating the first time. Also, and this is just MY take on it being who I am, there is no alcohol or tobacco on the course and being that was over 100 degrees when we played it, I really wanted to drink a beer. But it was fun and I shot pretty well (-6)

Pros: Good place to play. A well laid out course. This course is by far way better than Rock Creek. Alot of variety shots. I look to forward to playing here again.
Cons: Man that creek that runs through the course is a bastard, only 3 ft wide but 6ft deep in some parts. Only a few holes (3-4) on the course were the basket isnt next to the creek, a missed put could and did result of a lost disc.
Other Thoughts: All in all this is a great place to play if you have enough discs to lose. I look forward to getting revenge on this sometime in the near future. If your in Twin Falls area a must stop for sure!

Pros: Well laid out course with a good mix of shot requirements. The playful little creek throughout makes the course a lot more fun (it is big enough to be in play, but small enough to cross and usually to find any of your wet plastic). Tee pads and signage are certainly adequate. It is in a well maintained part of the CSI campus that is also quite family friendly and clean. Basket placements are fairly well laid out in my opinion, and different skill levels can enjoy what the course has to offer and the layout if fairly logical in progression and it was fairly easy to find the next tee pad and hole. While you will occasionally see people on the walking path, or students wandering around, for the most part it is well placed away from non-discers.
Cons: If you have a really big arm and are looking to air it out over and over, you might be disappointed here. There are a couple of longish holes, but nothing for the giant arms out there. Also if you like elevation change, don't look for a lot here, the course is fairly flat. All in all there are not a lot of cons here, one of the better courses in the area.
Other Thoughts: This course and the Rock Creek course compliment each other well. CSI is much more family friendly and easier to follow. Yet, Rock Creek is unique and requires a very different type of play.
Worth the stop in Twin Falls to play the two courses. Just know you are in for a very different experience with each.

Pros: This is a fantastic course that the locals have been setting up for 7+ years. Great large tee pads, excellent mix of long and short holes.
Cons: Disc eating creek running the length of the course, lots of other people using the area for other activities.
Other Thoughts: Signs will be attached to the concrete tee pads soon. Call local club for league night and doubles info 208 404-6556
