River Ranch Disc Golf Park - Johnstown, Colorado

This is a fun hidden gem. The tee pads are concrete but some of them are facing in the wrong direction. There is some upkeep to the course. Some baskets are not at regulation heights but that's fine by me. Overall it is a very relaxing and enjoyable course.

Hard no. No signs, took forever to find the first two tee boxes, short holes but with tall weeds lining a 10 ft wide fairway. Not enjoyable to play. Walked out after the second hole. Would have been better to have used the open space to the West of the pool for a wide open beginner, fun course.

Poor maps and there were 3 different groups walking around looking for hole #7. You really need a sign post to show that T7 is across the bridge to the south then turn left at the road and walk about 500yrds along the road where the Disk Golf course starts again. Really bad experience on this course this last weekend. Not recommend at all!!! Hole #18 is right next to 5 & 6 and you can not see hole 17 on top of the hill over the bridge and the road. One sign that points at hole 7 would solve this issue.

This is a generally friendly, fun disc course probably intended mostly for beginners to intermediates. There is one disc risky hole (#5) that goes over a marsh (that can freeze in winter) that definitely catches discs, especially if thrown on an aggressive line without 200'+ distance. This has quite a decent number of birdie (and even ace) opportunities. Note, to get to #7, you backtrack and go around the canal...it is the least obvious connector. Going to #14 is a walk diagonally left across the street and a good ways (400-600'?). #14-16 have some risk with wind or lack of distance/shot shape control. #18 can be a lefty or RHFH challenge with the marsh. Overall it is a friendly course to take newer folks.

A bathroom/porta potty would be nice.

As of 1/8/23: tee pads 1-5 are clear. The course has 3-4" of snow with lower disc risk due to disc burying. The snow covers most all the mud.

Most holes are super short par 3. That can be easily pared with little drive power needed. Almost all baskets are far below regulation height...some you cannot even see from tee pad. Chains are not regulation either, light wight and some single layered causing many puts to push out...on that note it may make up for short lengths to make the putting difficult as par threes.

It would be a good beginner course if there weren't so many holes where you could lose a disc. There's a few holes with ponds you have to go across or all the way around, that are going to be too long for new players to throw over. Hole 18 (the only hole over 350 feet) features a fairly treacherous marsh. The result is kind of schizophrenic. It's too short and easy to attract advanced golfers, and discouraging to newbies. Maybe that's the point. Discourage those that don't live in the development from coming?

Pretty cool course, although kinda poorly labeled at places. First hole is past the pool then you go back by the parking lot for hole 2 and beyond. I think it was 7 I got a little confused on too, but again the course itself is pretty great. Don't throw a disc you love over the lake or marsh tho...
