Harvey’s Hemlock Hideaway Holds Haughty Hyper Hilarious Hyperbole! 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 24, 2020 Played the course:once

Pros:

HHH DGC is located in Priest Lake State Park on the east side. You enter at the Indian Creek Campground and pay your $5 day user fee at the information center. The course starts just beyond the parking lot.

HHH plays through a small wooden section which borders the campsites. There is a course sign on the park street and then another course sign and map just about twenty feet farther in. The tee signs are pretty colored ones which show a map and route. The signs declare HHH to be a Jr. Disc Golf Course. The baskets are Mach II while the tee pads are dirt. This is a pretty good campground course designed for families and beginners. The campers should have some success here although there is definitely enough trees and brush to add challenge. Holes lengths range from 100' to about 205'.

Cons:

Hole # 5 is partially overgrown. Finding the tee area was difficult on this the longest hole here at 202' and then you add an overgrown fairway plus a tree downed across the fairway and that kind of takes away from the cool campground vibe that most of the course has.

Dirt pads could get sloppy in wet weather.

$ 5 to play.

The course is out of the way being on the far side of Priest Lake. State park traffic (trailers and motor homes) can make for some traffic bottlenecks.

Other Thoughts:

It might be a little too wooded and bushy for the typical camper but then again, it probably provides enough challenge for most recreational players so that's possibly a decent trade off. Due to the long, slow drive involved, I don't see many players making the trek here. Bagging this course is somewhat of an accomplishment and I doubt that anyone other than most harmless, hardened, heretic would harbor such an heroic, herculean hurdle.
