Echo Valley DGC

"Challenging course for all experiences. "

"Great course but the tee pads are unfortunately too short."

"Literally ran into the dude taking care of the course during his week off. Nothing but love out here at the valley 10/10"

"Beautiful and challenging. "

"A little drainage "

"Best course around. Not for beginners. Well kept and managed. Have some sort of map, it gets hard to find the next hole sometimes. Great variety of hole layouts and distances. "

"Slightly muddy "

"Excellent layout,baskets,and teepads kept up very well "

"Excellent. One of the best in Ohio."

"A well laid out wooded course. 2 sets of teepads. Nice challenging holes. Teepads a bit short. Rough can get nasty if you go in a few feet. "

"Top notch course worthy of a silver series / pro tour stop. Hands down the best built course I've ever played Minimal deadfall or wood piles. Manicured grass on every hole. Hardscapes and natural features worked into the course that add an extra level. Would be nice to see some benches installed and I didn't really like hole 14. Didn't seem to fit with the theme of the course. All and all I really enjoyed the course and can't wait to come back in the summer to see it in full greenery. "

"Best course in southern Ohio. All shot shapes required. Maintained and manicured perfectly. The landscape staff is doing a great job. "

"I’m an amateur and my father is a beginner. We both had an amazing time and the upkeep was spectacular."

"Very tough but fun course. Feels very fair in its difficulty. Requires great placement shots and distance to score well!"

"Fantastic course. The huge downhill shot was such a cool surprise. Maintained very well"

"New gem. Best course in the area"

"Great course! Very well upkept"

"Second best in the state!...wish there were a bit more variety in the design though... half the holes feel a bit repetitive... lots of trees in the fairways...also wished there could be at least one par 5"

"Love the added female tees Couldn’t locate them on a couple of holes. "

"Really fun course. Blue pads are scoreable and the gold pads are for 950+ rated. Open holes with a good mix of tight fairways shots. "

"Played in heavy snow but didn’t get to finish unfortunately. Tough course. Will definitely be going back. "

"So good. Be here. Wooded. Fair lines. Peaceful walking with God in the woods. "

"Nicely upkept but gets repetitive and lucky in the back nine "

"Fantastic course"

"Fun course, lots of woods which I like, even playing blue it seemed really long though. Not beginner friendly. "

"The layout is fun and very challenging. Absolutely beautiful park and fairways. I can’t think of a better course. "

"Only complaint is water standing on a few of the tee pads. Beautiful course, great mix of woods and open. I will play it again. "

"Beautiful course. Challenging but fair and incredibly fun. A terrific course, great addition to the Dayton disc golf scene!"

"Beautiful park! One of my favorites in Ohio "

"No easy pars on this course, played the blue tees, very technical on some holes. Clean well defined fairways. No thick underbrush to lose stray discs in. "

"It's a difficult course for your average player. Unless you have a big arm and good control over your discs, you'll probably struggle. Very long, heavily wooded holes. Many of them are blind from the tee. A handful also run up alongside fenced off private property. Beautiful course though. "

"Beautiful course with some distance but pretty technical. Played blues and its a fun, well-designed course."

"Excellent course, a must play "

"Spectacular course. Good topographic variation. Challenging but not overly so. "

"Very challenging course. Very well kept. "

"Best in Ohio"

"Very technical! Bring your A game!! But overall a fantastic course!"

"Great course "

"Not a beginner course, mostly wooded shots, beware of hole 18s center bog"

"Amazing course! Had to work for every par. Well maintained and easy to navigate. Have to make sure you have your line on every hole. Can't wait to play a second round after lunch. Make this a bucket list course. "

"Beautiful course! Loved all the trees, make sure to stop by if you’re in the area."

"This is a very nice, well kept and well designed course. Many holes are VERY challenging... The blue (shorter) tees include multiple that are 500+ feet on fairways that have numerous trees as obstacles."

"Wow! Just wow! Shots for all. Great for recreational or intermediate players. "

"Awesome course! "

"Absolutely amazing course. Tough but fair and very well kept. "

"Played over 75 courses in Ohio I Haven’t played one better than this. Best Course In Ohio "

"Best in Dayton"

"Top course in Ohio. Very well kept, lots of fun shots through wooded/open property. Quiet and serene. The ideal disc golf course."

"Beautiful course"

"Couple of awkward trees, small tee pads. However, really good use of property layout that provides a decent variety of shot shapes and challenges. Maybe a tad overrated, but a really fun course nonetheless."

"True Destination DISCGOLF course. Challenging and beautiful. So many different lines to choose as you navigate long holes up and down rolling elevation changes. Kicked our Am Masters butts! "

"Best course in the Dayton area, and one of the best in all of Ohio. Beautiful property hosts long, fair fairways with good shot-shaping opportunities. The rough is rough. Placement is key. "

"Best course I’ve ever played"

"This is a beautiful and very challenging course. I can imagine the surrounding park and trails getting very busy in nice weather though, so watch for people. I’m here on a cold February morning, and ran into 7 or 8 people walking dogs on the paths."

"Great design and fun course! "

"Fantastic course with beautiful fairways and great hole design "

"I'm from Northeast Indiana, and this course was absolutely amazing to play. It combines so many different fairway types and adds difficulty whether off the tee or on the approach. Honestly no critiques from me, 5 stars."

"This course keeps getting better. Added bridges are nice. Course design is great! Only complaint I have is there are crowds of people playing this course. With this many people playing the erosion and mud is noticeable around some of the baskets and trails. "

"Very long coarse"

"Nothing is given at this course, each throw is earned"

"Great course design. There is a need for bridges and steps for safety, but it looks like some of that is currently being done. Some teepads hold water. The design is great and navigating the course is easy if you pay attention. Best course I’ve played in the Dayton area."

"Really awesome course that is well maintained. Tough and long course, but always in a playable area."

"Beautiful course. Awesome blend of distance and technical. Very fun to play and very well kept. "

"Great challenging course. Upkept very well. Definitely one of the top courses in Ohio and surrounding states. "

"Really outstanding course. Challenging but mostly fair. Scenic holes and a decent workout due to all the hills. Great design on all but one of the holes. #14 having a section of private property prominently featured and sticking out into the middle of the fairway is pretty frustrating. Signage saying not to trespass means it could be tough to get a disc back even if it's clearly in sight. Feels like this could/should have been avoided. Otherwise I absolutely love this course. "

"Mostly park style w/ hints of deep wooded and open spots here and there. This is what advanced courses should strive to be like. Has a fairness to it based on the need to hit lines. "

"Best I ever had "

"One of my fav courses I’ve played. Very challenging. Shorts are very fun. Longs are very painful. "

"Played the Blue Tees, thought it was a great and challenging course, but all the shots felt fair. Mostly wooded holes but have some kind of fairway."

"Awesome course. Very scenic. Please do not add trash cans and extra signs. Pack your trash in and pack it out. Throw it away in the trashcan in the parking lot. Keep the course as close to natural as possible."

"Love the course. 5 stars when they get trash cans and a few more benches. My favorite course in Ohio. "

"Beautiful property. Demands control of your power shots and uses elevation very well throughout. "

"Nice course plays well, local mob golf isn't cool.. sign states groups no larger than 5, I saw alot more in groups than that, like 9 or 10 .. I rarely say this but this course could use some benches near the pads."

"Just gorgeous. Maybe the best course in the region."

"So good, so so good"

"Amazing. Perfectly manicured. Some bomb holes as well as technical medium rangers - Great mix! Jealous of those who live in the area! "
