Wide open Golf Course fairways. Challenges are pad locations and basket locations, oh and length of holes. Full Pro Shop.
Beautiful setting. Hole 15 awesome water shot. You can rent a cart with walking is a problem.

Maybe the cost. $10 dollars a round unless your a WSDC member then it's 5. I rated the course 3.5 because you have to pay to play. It is worth a higher rating.

You play on the same course as regular white ball golfers.
Some may not be happy your there. But we experienced no problems what so ever. Could this be the future for Disk Golf?

With a 990' par 5 and seven par 4 holes measuring at 645', 555', 620, 600', 600', 700' and 550', totaling a whopping 8295', Horseshoe Lake certainly qualifies as a long course. It's probably the premier disc golf course that I've played on about the 20 different golf courses which incorporate disc golf, too. The course is lovely, green and well manicured. There isn't much elevation to contend with although water does come into play on 3 or 4 holes. The 50 discs in the pro shop which were fished out the ponds verify that water, does indeed, come into play.

Cost to play is $10 per round or $15 for all day. West Sound Disc Club members pay $5 per round. A cart cost $15 and you'll be glad for that expenditure. Business seems to be booming as we played on the first sunny warm day this spring (April 22, 65 degrees) and I estimate that there were about three times as many disc golfers on the course as those regular guys.

You mostly play from the same long tees as the golfers. The fairways are surprisingly tight for a golf course and with many of the cart paths OB and some added OBs (such as # 9's fairway), for us scatter armed players, OB always seemed to be lurking close by. Splish, Splash!

The tee signs are laminated temporary ones. At least two, showed that the basket placement had been moved back 60 feet, both times adding 120 more feet to this already longish course. The baskets consisted of some temporary models and these lovely dark blue models with the wide bands. They showed no name but I believe they must be Discatchers.

# 12 was one of the few holes where accuracy was most important off the tee. Here, you are trying to throw through a 30' gap between trees which are about 50' from the tee.

On the 990' # 11, a pond on the left might come into play about 600' down the fairway.

Signature hole? I guess I'll have to nominate # 15. It's just 270' but most of that is carry over a pond with the basket sitting about 30' past. It's probably not that difficult but it definitely provides the pucker factor for us rec players.

The grass tee areas could be slippery if wet and might become muddy with enough use.

$10 per round might discourage some players.

Many flat and open holes aren't totally ideal for the disc golf game.

I really didn't care for the fairway being OB on # 10 but I think I understand the reasoning behind this decision.

A majority of the baskets were set up, just off the fairway, on the right side. Only a couple were on the left side. I understand that the guy who places the baskets is a lefty!

if you throw 350' plus, then you're going to like this course a lot. Rec, senior or younger players may be a little less impressed. Because of this, I was torn when rating this course. To the 24 year old player throwing 400', Horseshoe Lake is a solid 4.0. To an older recreational player such as myself, I give it a 3.5. I'd love to split the difference and award it a 3.75 but Tim doesn't allow that so I'm going with my heart (arm) and awarding Horseshoe Lake a 3.5.
