About the course

A beautiful, professional level 18-hole disc golf course set to the backdrop of the Cherokee Mental Health Institute that was built in 1902. The course has a variety of lines for both backhand and forehand dominant throwers, as well as optimal holes for rollers. There are a few OBs, mandos, 'tunnel' holes, and an island hole. The holes vary in length with a good mixture of short, medium, and longs. Follow 'Cherokee Disc Golf' on Facebook for more information on tournaments, leagues, and other happenings on the course.

Very unique land, Mental Health Institute!. Nice, new DisCatchers and trash can on each hole. The history here makes you think of what people suffered from

Old growth trees on a piece of land this large is rare. This course is incredibly unique and is not comparable to any other I’ve played. The scenery is specific to this course only. The holes are also laid out very well and teepads and signage are on point. Worth a trip for sure. Hope to come back someday.
