Area 51 DGC

"Weed run wind both sides of the course and is horrible to look through so stay out of them!!! "

"Unless you wanna contract the Zika virus from battling mosquitos while sifting through poison ivy and thorns I would go literally anywhere else in Columbus. Holds water worse than any course around and the par is more inflated than the US economy. Fun to play in the fall when the course literally DIES. Just stay away. "

"Wet. "

"Stay on Fairway or you will be looking for your disc a long time. Having a spotter would be helpful "

"Fairway is nice and open but the rough is unforgiving. Very thick with bushes and trees. Must hit the fairways"

"Pretty nice course. Hole 12 is completely flooded to the point of being unplayable."

"Would’ve given 5 if it weren’t for there being a waterhole around hole 12. Definitely an easier course, great for beginners or someone just looking for some practice. Make sure to wear shoes you don’t mind getting mud on!"

"Fairly water logged back nine "

"Very wet. Hole 12 is a pond."

"Fun course with a nice setting "

"What an entirely mediocre course. Thankful that it is here, but with 18 baskets and not a single memorable hole, it is obvious that this was not designed by someone who has ever played the game. There is potential on the property, but this course has 18 fairways mowed into thorns on either side. Very inaccurate tee signs - only three or four of them actually show the true par of the hole. Fine to play in the winter, but a hard pass once the overgrowth returns. "

"Well kept fairways, really clean course!"

"Currently wet and partial low flooding. Well laid out and wide fairways on most. Spring and Summer if you get off fairway you will be looking for awhile."

"Really fun lines but brutally punishing in the warmer months "

"Really enjoyed this course, can see how it would be difficult to play in the the summer though. The rough looks like it would be stupid crazy when alive.. "

"This is a great layout for the space available. I can imagine that the rough is pretty unforgiving in the summer months. "

"Great course! Well maintained "

"Extremely narrow fairways, with unforgiving rough. Lots and lots of thorns. Bring your brightest discs. Dark and neutral colors are too easy to lose. Don’t play here on windy days. The course is well maintained and pretty in the fall. "

"Tight fairways and lots of thick nature just feet from the fairway makes discs hard to find most of the year— course is very helpful to have a spotter. Nice tee pads and signage made it easy to navigate. A bit on the repetitive side"

"Well maintained fairway but east to lose discs in rough "

"It’s big and flat and It feels open even though the fairways are tight."

"The fairway is very well kept. Once you're off the fairway... It's pretty rough. "

"Great upkeep! Thick rough and challenging for beginners. "

"Bull frogs are lacking"

"Fun course with pretty wide fairways. You can lose a disc if you fuck up the drive real bad or in my case just completely forget you left one on the ground so if someone finds a pink shark with name and number on it please call me, I'd love my little sharkie back. "

"Well kept course, stay on the fairways or you'll be miserable"

"Pretty simple layout. Next tee pads are never more than a short walk from the previous baskets. The mosquitoes can get pretty bad. The rough is scary, lots of thorny needle like tall plants. It's alright for newbies but errant throws will cost a lot of time searching and getting eaten up by bugs and thorns. Pars are generous though. My biggest complaint is the lack of trash cans! Please add a few more."

"Keep low, especially on the back 9 as the rough is quite sharp and prickly. Overall well maintained and a nice mix of shots/distances "

"Fun course that is well kept. The rough is as bad as the reviews stay so play sharp. Stay in the fairway and it’s a great time. "

"Maintained fairways and solid tee pads at every hole "

"Very fun. Great for practicing fairly tight fairways. I recommend playing adjusted pars if you aren’t a beginner. *bring mosquito repellant "

"Overgrown in a lot of places but some fun holes"

"If you go off the fairway at all say goodbye to your disc "

"The rough and poison ivy suck "

"This would be a beautiful course for fall or early spring. But in the dead of summer it is so overgrown it’s hard to find your disc if you go OB."

"Way too swampy. Mosquitoes were terrible, fairways were wet and long rough is almost impossible to maneuver through. Probably a lot nicer in a different season "

"Too much grass, not enough trees. Mosquitos are also horrible"

"Overall decent lil course. Rough is very thick and full of poison ivy. Most holes get pretty repetitive but are pretty challenging with the tight narrow fairways. Also Mosquitoes were pretty bad not sure if it’s just because it just rained but definitely bring bug spray. "

"Nice courses for beginners/advanced players who have accuracy down. Par 4s fairly easy birdy opportunity. Very bushy rough areas but fairway is well kept"

"Good conditions, lots of overgrowth plants however. Hard to find discs "

"Lost a purple MVP Catalyst on hole 9 left hand rough. Lost a Red MVP Plasma octane on hole 12 right side pin high rough. And a Silver MVP Plasma Servo on hole 15 right side rough. If found text 734-929-8447"

"Lost 3 discs, but also found 3 discs. The rough is brutal. Any shot off the fairway is a potential lost disc. Would give this course a 4/5 but spent just as much time looking for discs as playing. "

"Fun layout. Beware of the rough/overgrowth. We lost 3 discs and found 3 others. Very frustrating. "

"Brush and high grass windy "

"I’m not gonna let the rough/OB ruin this courses rating but oh boy is the rough ROUGH. Not very many “bomber” holes, placement reigns supreme on this course and I love it. Many cool lines, nice distances and awesome tee pads! Hole 12 was underwater but other than that the course is super fun!"

"Super wet sometimes (hole 12 was unplayable), very thick OB, but a really cool course layout and great fairways"

"If it's rained in the past week and your name isn't Paul mcbeth, I'd recommend not playing this course."

"Fun short course but big flood when rain."

"First time here. Very nice layout. Beautiful grass fairways with some wicked briar and snaggly growth rough throughout. Not the most demanding run but great as an intro to the game. Some open shots for the long arms. Par is +1 more than it should be on most holes. Some holes you may need waders on, some holes u may need a john boat! Scout out 18 before throwing....lots of water at length. Well laid out, pretty and easy course. "

"Great course, but it’s one of the last to dry up during the spring. Very thick in the summer, wouldn’t recommend playing alone. The foliage thins out for the fall through spring and is much more manageable to play solo. "

"Lots of flooding and very muddy. Holes 3, 12, 14, 15 were unplayable due to flooding. Good course but bad conditions. "

"Great course but 12 green under ice and 14 tee under ice"

"Very fun course, and well kept. Not good drainage, so be sure to play well after any rain or snow."

"Fun course... definitely a spring and fall player if you have a shank that rough is thick in spots but definitely worse in the summer"

"Little wet. "

"Tough out of bounds….lost 4 that day"

"Fun course nice layout careful of getting to far of fairway "

"Not a fun course to play. No change of elevation and too short for intermediate / pro level players."

"Wow, what a bad place to play now. Over grown and muddy. Only got 4 holes in before saying no more. "

"Very challenging course. Be prepared to lose a disc if you don’t have a good eye on it. "

"Very good upkeep. Only real issue is that the pars are really high for what they are. "

"Columbus, Ohio’s largest lost & found."

"If you’re good it’s fun "

"Really cool course, but it’s a Bermuda Triangle for disc’s"

"Very hard to find disc if fairway is missed on back 9"

"The aliens made a fine course here. It's honest. 👽 Don't throw recklessly and you'll par everything. Throw recklessly and you'll be punished! Well mowed. #6 fave course central OH"

"Watch your discs all the way to the ground"

"Lots of long narrow fairways, if you’re in the rough good luck finding your disc"

"Bring a machete and your cheapest discs"

"Very muddy, need boats"

"A lot of narrow shot but better than I thought it would be. A few muddy spots here and there."

"A very nice pitch-and-putt style course. Punishing roughs, very tick-friendly areas as well. Overall a well-designed and good-flowing course."

"Wet, but lots of great holes. Super fun, bring boots!"

"All shots are just directly straight ahead with reasonable sized fairways"

"Bad drainage so a lot of standing water after rain and very tall roughs in the summer."

"Easy pars. Nice fairways. Very tough rough. Looks like it could be very muddy after rain, and definitely bring bug spray in the winter/fall. "

"For a yee-yee ass town designing this course, Obetz really did do a fine job on this one. The pars are a bit high, but that's fine with me, makes me feel like a real winner. Roughs are a bit shit, but recoverable. Will definitely make you discipline your throws, or else you have to fuck with thorns to get your disc back. "

"Gets really over grown in the summer"

"Very muddy and lots of water currently."

"Pretty straightforward course with a combination of short and long, bh/fh-biased holes with no obstacles too crazy. It was muddy soon after a rain and would likely be harder to retrieve OB discs from the brush during the summer, but I’ll be coming back."

"Cool design, very wet tho "

"perfect course this time of year "

"Really wet and flooded"

"If you want to be mentally, physically, and monetarily punished for missing your lines, play this course in the summer"

"Deep ass snow"

"This is my home course. The fairways are great and the rough is terrible as always. It's a great winter and early spring course otherwise it floods easily when it rains a lot and you can very easily lose a disc once the rough grows in."

"Thorns bro! Well kept, fairway only muddy near trees and in rough. Pin placement is fair and challenging. "

"Challenging with the last three at par 5 but very fun!"

"Definitely lots of rough, summer would probably be brutal, but it was a lot of fun when I could easily find my disc most of the time"

"On the shorter side, inflated pars. Good teepads"

"Thorny "

"Well maintained but could use some trash barrels on the course. Mostly straight shots but thick rough punishes errant shots. "

"Narrow fairways, nightmare to play in the summer months."

"When the grass is cut well it is one of the more fun courses you can go to. I beat Zach and Simon."

"Very nice. Requires a variety of shots to keep you on your toes. Would recommend to anyone. Especially since i beat andrew liam keegan and ben. "

"It was indeed a phenomenal course as long as you’re good and control your shots it’s awesome"

"Easy to lose disc but if you play with a spotter it’s a fun course. Mostly very straight shots"

"Fun course. Rough rough."

"Nice course with some variety. Mostly open fairways with deep rough, but a few interesting holes. Well-maintained and nice tee pads. A good course to return to and play again!"

"Very fun generally well kept course. The rough is brutal in the summer, would not reccomend playing here in summer months. Course also holds water after it rains. Other than that, it's a fun very scoreable layout. Great use of a flat piece of property. "

"Really nice course. The fairways are plenty wide enough to reward a good throw despite the thick rough. Fun layout and good use of trees and shrubs to challenge lines"

"Upkeep is really good, not too bad finding disks, beginner to intermediate course"

"Amazing course. Punishing rough. "

"Nice Course. Lots of weeds & ivy. Nice variation fairway widths. Some trash cans would be nice. Nicely groomed."

"Horrible rough, even with a spotter"

"If you can’t stay on the fairway then don’t play this course. "

"Like the course a lot wish the rough could be cut down just a little more becoming almost impossible to find discs in the rough. Very well kept fairways "

"Very well maintained, manicured course! Tight fairways, MUST have a spotter. Will definitely be playing again. "

"Simple course, if you dont stay on the fairway your screwed because of the thick thorn brush."

"The rough is painful and insanely thick. If you miss the fairway by a couple of feet, it will still take a while to find the disc. Design is good, pars are soft (aim for 18 under), signage is amazing. The rough just ruins the course."

"Course itself is fine, some holes get repetitive and lots of thorny rough"

"Great course! Flat but some difficult hole due to high rough and trees. Keep it straight and low and you will play well. "

"Hit the fairways or you will be punished. Great course. 100 percent flat terrain with a nice mix of shots. "

"Thick brush. Stay on fairway. Fairway looks good. Brand new tees. "

"A little wet. Definitely playable. "

"If you keep it in the fairway, then you’ll be fine. Some of the rough is super thick "

"If you stay on the fairways, it's a fun course. Wear pants and bring a machete in case you don't stay on the fairways!"

"Easy to lose discs , good course if u keep in fairway "

"Pars need lowered "

"Course was cool, the bushes are painful to walk through and hard to find discs. Do NOT play this course if you are a beginner."

"Well kept course. Very narrow fairway, very easy to lose discs. Lots of thorny and thick surroundings, and mosquitoes. "

"Nice design. Brush to the sides is thorny sticks and eats disks for breakfast. If you aren’t an expert prepare to lose your disks. "

"Could try cutting down some of brush "

"Nice course, easy to lose frisbee if you’re not in fairway though "

"Lefty’s dream!! "

"Tight fairways, but very pretty course. When it rains, the course holds water for a few days so make sure to go when it has been dry for a while."

"Grass was way too long, needs maintenance "

"Nice course. Pretty straight forward. Keep it in the fairway and its an easy round."

"I get it just rained a bunch, but the course was so overly unkempt in the rough that a two person round took over two hours from any minor mistake in throwing. Take care of the rough and when the rain water drains I'm sure this course will be fine."

"Muddy mess right now its definitely not a course to teach someone to play unless you are ok with loosing disc's in thorn bushes would love to come back myself when it's dry CHECK FOR TICKS"

"It’s a swamp. Stay away."

"Absolutely awesome, but you’re asking to lose a disc or two"

"Currently grass is mowed and it's a lot of fun if you stay on fairways"

" Very wet today. 3-4 holes not playable"

"What a fun little course! One of the better kept ones in Columbus. The pars will make you feel awesome even if you aren’t. You can tell this place gets ROUGH during spring/summer, but when there’s little foliage this place is a hoot!"

"If it weren’t a swamp it would rule "

"Area 51 is a very clean course. There are a lot of pins straight off the tee at various distances. The rough is very rough! Overall, this course is a good play. "

"Needs trash cans or at least players to take out what they take in. Besides that a fun course with beginner friendly pars. "

"Well kept. Great course! "

"Play with a spotter. "

"Don’t play when it’s windy, don’t play in shorts, anything off fairway is brutal"

"Come here if you love looking for discs after a semi errant shot!"

"Let’s see them aliens"

"You will lose almost all of your discs"

"Mosquitos are relentless"

"If your disc does not land in the fairway.... you're pretty much F'd. OB is dense with shrubs, bushes, tall grass, and thickets. Last 3 holes are super long with hole 18 being around 470 feet The fairways are narrow - about the width of 3 traffic lanes on a road The maintenance of the course is so great though the grounds crew does an amazing job with the up keep But yeah difficult course "

"Sunday July 7th, after all the rain still nice and dry. Nice and well maintained, rough can get rough!! But imo makes course better! Rewarded with good shot or penalized for bad throws"

"The rough is rough, swampy on hole 12-13, but playable, sticker bushes abound. "

"Still muddy on 12, and is not playable"

"Excellent course, Ace on 12"

"Tough course with very thick rough. Not beginner friendly. "

"First things first... wow. Never have I ever been through the roller coaster of emotions that this course; nay; experience hath brought forth. From the fear of losing myself in the dense rough, to the other worldly atmosphere each hole managed to transport my essence to... dare I say it again... wow. 4/5."

"Area 51? We have enough aliens in Trumps America. Jokes aside, the fairways, the Mach 3s, the scavenging? Wow. What a course. 5 Stars! "

"Discs easily lost in tall grass which is covered with ticks. "

"Lots if ticks remedied by staying on the fairway. Good variety of shots and very manicured fairways."

"Brand new so still kinda muddy. Super thick rough"

"Very wet"
