Hmmm, I have no idea why they call it Dry Creek Update: 12 rounds of disc golf. Repeat the front 6 or the back six for 18 rounds. My wife and I just got back from the park. Practically had it all to ourselves. What a nice stroll. Sidewalk is clear of snow, except for the bridges. This truly is one of American Fork's best parks. Oh yes, I almost forgot. Yes there was flowing water in the creek. You know, the Dry Creek! And I have no idea why it says "Closed Now" online. Parking lot is open.

A nine hole putting green, all par two is just off the parking lot. It offers incredible views of Utah Valley, Utah Lake, and the Rocky Mountains that surround the cities of Highland and Alpine. Nestled on a large expanse of open grass and natural fields in northern Highland and western edge of Alpine at the base of Hog Hollow Canyon, the park and course has a (usually) dry creek that runs through it, with a few bluffs perfect for hucking discs into well placed baskets in the forest below. Red tees are generally shorter and basket is more visible. The front nine predominately uses the grass in the park; Hole 6 is the exception as the hardest hole on the course in the forest. The back nine is called the "Outback Nine" due to the majority of the holes in the forest and open park space. This is a public park. We do not have a pro-shop, we do not offer lessons, or sell products. We host tournaments occasionally and encourage all to participate.

The park has some beautiful big trees and is relatively flat aside from the hill on the west side, and there is the namesake creek that runs along the south edge of the park. It is one of the best disc golf courses around, and plays hosts to leagues and tournaments. The major problem here is that it is directly next to the Wasatch Charter School. When school is in session, parents have decided that the parking lot for Creekside Park is where they will pick up and drop off their kids. So for hours each day in the morning and afternoon, the parking lot is next to impossible to access being clogged by those cars. The other problem with the location next to the school, is that the school has decided that the whole park is a convenient recess location. Without notice, hundreds of children will come running over the hill and flood into all areas of the park, disrupting your quiet picnics or peaceful rounds of disc golf. Now if you're a disc golfer, you probably don't want to hit a little kid in the head (I swear all the "ten bonus point" jokes are only jokes). And if you're a little kid, you probably don't want to get walloped in the head by a hurdling disc of hard plastic. I'm not sure why the school just sends out all the kids unsupervised into the woods to run wild and pay absolutely zero attention to the disc golfers who are in the middle of a round, but at some point there are bound to be injuries. The park also has one large pavilion that can seat about 100 people, a small playground for the kids, and a sand volleyball area, so it is a good option for bbq's and gatherings. My advice is that it is a beautiful park, but if you're going to try to enjoy the park during the school year, to do so on the weekends.

So I spent some time here last weekend. But even moreso, I have spent far far far more time in the park over the last 4 months than I ever did before, due to the addition of a disc golf course. Now, back in the day (waaaaay back) I was pretty into the sport and have played on about 100 courses all over this fine country. But the sport blew up and is having a moment right now, so much so that courses are popping up all over the place and this fun little pitch-n-putt par 3 seemed to show up out of nowhere. It's great--everything is under 400 feet, and it's brought a lot of people out to the park that might not ever have made it over--truly making this a park for the people. Besides that, they've made some big improvements. There's now a massive pavilion over by the senior center, which is no longer the senior center, but rather a lovely little museum. It's a drought year so I take it easy on them for the condition of the grass which is, you know, not precisely lush right now. But it's beautiful to see them taking water conservation seriously. I'll be over there plenty often now, getting in a quick 9 holes in under an hour, but I'll also be back for Harvest Days next year. Until then!

Something for the whole family. Parking lot is on the small size for a park, and the Boys and Girls Club is near by, I believe they share the parking space.

You will see a water fountain in a pond between the first and second buildings. #1 is right there by the picnic table next to the parking lot on the pond side. Pros: * Nothing but grass. It is a fairly plush grass and with some slight to a few steep hills, so a pull cart is more adept for this course than a push cart (Rovic, mod golf carts, etc.). * Most are wide open shots with a smattering of trees and other obstacles that will get you if your accuracy is a bit off. Then you will curse yourself for hitting the only tree in the way. * Baskets are in decent shape. * Tee pads are concrete and are in uniform size. * Most tees are right near the last basket played. Could almost navigate this without UDisc. * Some challenging holes. #11's top yellow band is barely visible above a berm, making it difficult to judge distance; #12 is at the top of a 50 foot hill, adding at least 75' to your 305' drive; #13 is buried at a 45 degree angle. #17 is at the edge of a decline drop off, so if it hits the ground and rolls, you can be a good 60' from the basket. * Pretty views. * There is a decent playground by #9 if spouse and kids want to hang while you play. Cons: * As of this writing, #'s 9 and 10 baskets are out because of construction. * No warmup basket. * #4 has a drainage about 50' on approach, slightly to the left of it. The grates are about 1-1/2" wide and 18" long. Large enough for any disc to drop into it. As a matter of fact, I hooked one to it today and my disc landed right next to this drainage. Why doesn't the local club install chicken wire or something to prevent this from happening? * Most are not real challenging holes, but just distance driving. * No bathroom or water facilities from what I could see. Other Thoughts: I'm surprised at how mediocre the courses are around Provo/Orem area. This one will satisfy, though, even though it is not spectacular and rather uneventful. 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs!
