Meathouse Fork DGC is located in a pretty little park out in the middle of nowhere West Virginia. There was nobody else there on a cool October afternoon. Probably not too busy of a park. I don't know why the hell it's named what it is, but I like it. And the course isn't half bad either.

The baskets are MVP Black Hole Portals. These are all mounted level, easy to spot with a yellow band around the top and they catch great. One basket and position per hole. These have the hole # on the band too, which is always a plus.

The tees are natural. They're all in good shape still. A blue board in the ground indicates the longs and the white boards are for the shorts. All of the were visable but you need to find the tee sign to find them. Two tees on every hole except 18, unless I just couldn't find that one.

The tee signs are very basic. Hole #, distance, par and the course logo. There's a sign at each tee location. The white and yellow/orange signs really stick out and make locating them easier.

The flow of the course is generally pretty decent. There is an accurate map on Udisc that I used a couple times, but for the most part it's pretty easy to figure out.

The course incorporates the creek on almost a third of the holes. No water carries but a number of baskets placed close enough to the creek that it can easily come into play. I would know since I shanked my drive into the creek on hole 2. It was easy enough to retrieve with my golden retriever and it's not very deep if you had to wade into there. The elevation is the big challenge here. Almost every hole has some type of elevation change. Most have quite a bit. They used the trees as well as possible too, in the few spots they could be in play. Good design for the space available.

The distances are all on the shorter side. Nothing over probably 350 feet or so. Fun course for beginners and rec players or if you want to play something a little less wooded.

Course is free and permanent. Restrooms by the parking lot.

The navigation could be a little wonky for newer players or if you don't have a map in a few spots. Like I said, I got around pretty easily, but I did have to consult the map probably 3 times. Nothing major but worth noting.

One hole, I want to say hole 6 maybe, is a downhill shot through the trees. There really isn't a gap. Not sure if it has grown in or was never there in the first place. Hole 10 could use a little trimming as well.

The course starts to get a little repetitive by the end. Uphill open shot, downhill open shot, repeat.

Nothing to go too far out of your way to play. If you happen to be passing by here though, it's a short jaunt off the expressway and shouldn't take more than about an hour. Fun little course for the most part. Plus, how are you going to turn down a chance to play a course called Meathouse Fork?
