Ryan Creek DGC is 9 holes, all par 3. Tee signs by the natural tee boxes, and DISCatchers to cap each hole. I parked next to the Bar and Grill across the street, but a grocery store parking lot is on the other end of the trail near hole 3 tee and 4 basket.

The course is heavily wooded and there is underbrush that gets pretty tall. Holes are short, and 3 play over the water. Mild elevation change on the water holes.

The layout is cramped but has some variety of throws. Rights, lefts, up and down, on a limited basis. Hole 5 and 6 were a little dicey. 5 was downhill across the water and bridge, with a little right to left. The basket does have a fence to the left, you don't want to miss high and wide. 6 is back up across the water, with a narrow window in front of the basket. I liked hole 7, a mid distance corridor that bends steadily to the right all the way to the basket.

Short, and the layout crosses over and backtracks at times. It is 9 holes stuck into a small space in between parking lots and avenues with a pedestrian trail. Litter strewn all along the path. I never found a sign for hole 9, and kind of guessed where to tee off.

I don't know if the water is Ryan Creek or a pond from stormwater drainage. It doesn't seem to flow anywhere and is dry at one end. I wouldn't go in after a disc.

I hit this one as kind of another notch on the belt. Had limited time on this trip and had a chance to get double digit courses in Alaska by playing this one. It ranked 10th out of 10 for sure.

It did have really good signage (except 9) and baskets, including a nice course map. Not hitting trees is the big challenge here, especially around the water. Losing a disc in the tall weeds is also very possible. Not a lot of mowing or weed whacking go on as far as I could see.

I shot a 25 (-2), on three birdies and a bogey. 7 was the hole that I couldn't make par. 1, 4 and 5 were the victories for me. Had putts for birdies on three other holes that I couldn't convert.
