Pine Hills DGC › North course › May 23, 2017
I got to play a round in a tournament with the course designer. Great guy and it came through in the design! Plenty of elevation changes and big drives to satisfy even the biggest of cannon arms, but enough danger to keep you thinking about your next shot. The play and scenery is a stark contrast to the common city park disc golf course. The ability to use golf carts and play down well kept fairways is an experience that makes this course very unique to the area, and the sport in general. I'm lucky to be close by but its worth even a couple hours drive to play.
Burchfield Park › River's Edge › October 2, 2015
This is hands down Lansing area's most challenging course. It boasts the most elevation changes in the area as well as some of the most mature and established forest growth. At times of the year it can be flooded and the back nine can become unplayable. The mosquitoes can be something straight out of Genesis at times of the year as well. Overall it plays well and is a wonderful compliment to the long distance open course that is also located in the park.
Burchfield Park › Renegades Trail › October 2, 2015
Easily the most versatile course in the Lansing area. With the option of playing four different layouts you can easily spend the day here. The short/short and short/long layouts are great for beginner/intermediate players, while the long/short and long/long layouts will give even the most seasoned players a run for their money. Big arm players will love this course as the distance on most holes is pretty extreme for a mostly flat plot of land. But there are some areas (thorns/thick underbrush) t ...

If you play disc golf in Michigan and have yet to visit here, it is an absolute must play. Believe the hype because this course is incredible even before you throw in the fact that it is someones back yard. Lots of elevation changes provide some great shots and precarious basket placements can wreak havoc on your putting/approach game. The scenery is wonderful and the rock formations scattered about give the course a very unique feel. Definitely worth a day trip if you get an opportunity to go SEIZE IT!
Grand Woods Park › Main course › October 2, 2015
Layout is good given the plot of land it was molded on. Fair blend of open and wooded holes, but nothing too technical. Generally a smooth ride, but there are a couple spots you can be searching for discs for awhile. The pond is famished and requires a plastic sacrifice now and again. The land is a flood plane though so it can get soggy/buggy at certain points in the year. Try to tee off before mid afternoon as the casuals tend to saturate the course beyond that time of day. Especially when the weather is nice.

Great location, beautiful scenery, no crowds, good mix of open and technical holes, love it except for hole 9 :D Tee pads could be lengthened and could use a few more benches and trash cans. Oh and bring your wind discs because it tends to get really gusty on the open holes by the lake.
