Pros:

Ellsworth DGC plays around the south side of Ellsworth Middle school grounds. The first four holes wrap around the south side of the school before crossing the road and playing the final five around the football field south of the school in the opposite direction.

Nice Mach II baskets. These were in decent and caught pretty well. One basket and pin placement per hole.

The grounds were clean and it should always be mowed being on school grounds.

Shorter lengths for the holes which is good for the intended target group, middle school kids. Fun putter or mid type of course for more experienced folks.

Cons:

No tee pads or signage. This one will tough to figure out without a map, if not outright impossible. There's nothing that tells you where the course starts even. If there was a sign for that at least it'd be much easier. FWIW, start on the western parking lot and play south counterclockwise around the school. After that walk across the street south and the other five play clockwise around the football practice field.

The road comes into play on a bunch of holes. five to be exact with four of them playing really close to the main road. Not too bad if you're careful but probably not the best design for middle schoolers.

The rough off the fairway is thick is the summer months. Very real chance of some lost discs if you're spraying your shots into there.

Not available when school is in session.

Other Thoughts:

Pretty typical WI school course. Nothing to go out of your way for and to be honest most people will never even be passing through close enough to even consider this one. Literally for course baggers and middle schoolers. Neither of which will like it that much anyway.

Kids Course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 17, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

1. Baskets are in good shape.
2. Lots of parking

Cons:

1. No tee pads or notification on where each hole starts.
2. Holes are short, around 200ft.
3. Most holes run along side the elementary school, so little to no variation from hole to hole.
4. Can only play when school is NOT in session.
5. No restrooms.

Other Thoughts:

As we found out, this course is meant for the kids who attend the elementary school. Which naturally means that the holes are going to be short and pretty basic. I would not recommend playing this course if you are looking to play a round of disc golf.
