Arcadia Valley 2+ years

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Sep 6, 2020 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

This is a 9 hole course. Each hole has 2 tees to enable the player to play the course as an 18 hole game. There are no hills, the entire course is flat. Each basket is located near the next tee. The City of Arcadia keeps this course and the entire park clean and well maintained. The city provides score cards with a map of the course on the back of the score card.

Cons:

There are evergreen trees throughout the entire course. The evergreen trees block vision of where a disc lands and cause additional time to be used to locate discs. With the exception of hole #9, which also serves as hole #18, there are evergreen trees for every hole that block vision and come into play. A disc retriever is useful for discs that get caught in or under the evergreen trees.

Other Thoughts:

1) The Arcadia Valley of Iron County is surrounded by the Saint Francois Mountains. The Saint Francois Mountain range is the most rugged and mountainous terrain in the State of Missouri. The scenery at this course is fantastic because of the mountains. Elephant Rocks State Park and Tom Sauk Mountain State Park are also located in Iron County and are within a 10 to 15 minute drive from this course.
2) A potential danger to players on this course may be the presence of venomous snakes during the warm months of the year. Copperheads and Timber Rattlesnakes are found throughout Iron County. Throughout the years, persons I know or who I have met with through my job who live in Iron County have observed both species of snakes on their properties. The course is located on the southern part of the park and Stout Creek runs along the southern border of the park and Stout Creek may draw snakes and other wildlife into the park.
