Disc Golf at Garnet Hill!

Play Disc Golf at Garnet Hill!

We brought disc golf to Garnet Hill! Check out our new 9-hole disc golf course. Our wooded disc golf course offers a variety of fairways that are fun for all, yet suitably challenging for experienced players. The course will begin outside the Garnet Hill Outdoor Center, travel toward the trails around the Log House, and then finish back at the Outdoor Center.

The course includes multiple target positions to cater to players of different ability levels, and we use trees, bushes, and elevation to make each hole challenging and unique. Use of the course is complimentary if you have your own disc – for overnight guests and local residents. Discs are available for rent or purchase at the Outdoor Center. We will charge a $30 disc rental fee which includes 1 putter, 1 midrange, and 1 driver. You have the option of keeping or buying all three discs for $30, or if you choose to rent and return after your round, we will refund you $15.
