Knob Hill is true to its name, with striking downhill shots and huff n’ puff approaches to some fast greens. Many long, open and grassy fairways, a water hazard, and plenty of hardwoods force accurate throws. Well-marked tee signs and putting basket. Knob Hill can be challenging for even the most seasoned disc golfers, while rewarding even newer players with a multitude of lines for when it is time to scramble.
The course opened in 1994 with current White Tee, A Pin layout, and expanded in stages to include Red, White and Blue tees and three pin placements per hole that challenge all level of players. Knob Hill is host to many leagues and events throughout the year, so be sure to check out the Events page to find out what is happening at the course!
