Lincoln Ridge Park (Banklick)

"Just remove creek section or show detour path to bypass them! "

"Some tee pads need work. Get rid of entire creek section. "

"Holy hell. Absolute madness. "

"Very hilly. NOT cart friendly"

"Great variety of holes. Play the 18 hole layout without the creek holes, the creek holes are terrible."

"Whole lotta elevation change, super fun course! Maybe I chose the wrong layout, but lots of sub 400’ par 4s. Guess it makes for a low card!"

"Great design, mix of woods, open holes and elevation. Should just be 18 holes and have clear signage on hole 1 about 14-17 and 22-23 didn’t feel necessary. A few tee pads and baskets could use upgrades as well"

"Fantastic well manicured course. Well used elevation with a great mix of shots. Worth the drive from Michigan for sure"

"I like the course a lot. Really fun. Hit my first ace here!"

"An enjoyable course that has stood the test of time by offering a pleasant variety of fun hole designs. However, there are several mostly wide-open holes that feel like fillers to get to the next hole. Also, for first-timers, there’s a jumble of multiple teepads and alternative basket locations that might confuse. For more info, read my review on www.dgcoursereview.com."

"One of my favorite courses of all time. They really need to post that the back 9 has 4 dangerous holes that are closed, but that’s not indicated. Had a friend almost fall off the ravine trying to retrieve a disc. We would have never tossed or went deeper into the back 9 had it been labeled as closed. Otherwise.. amazing course. "

"Not posted clearly to skip 4 holes that are dangerous. "

"Started playing this course last fall. Great course with mix of wooded and open holes. Looking forward to seeing it in the summer."

"Big course, fun layout, but a few of the tee pads are in need of repair. "

"A nice mix of open, wooded and lots of elevation. Very clean and well maintained "

"Probably the easiest of the long courses in the area. But only because of the pars…. A bit inconsistent there. But great mix of wooded, open, short, longish and elevation changes. Probably my favorite course in the Cincinnati area. "

"Great course! Lots of fun!"

"Great course minus 14-18. Baskets need updated"

"Challenging! But great to test your skills! "

"Super fun course. Someone needs to change to pars. And like 15-17 need new tee pads and maintenance. "

"Always my favorite"

"Good course "

"Really fun course for the playable holes! A little physically demanding with the hills, but that could also be because I haven’t played as much recently "

"Very well maintained. Many different varieties of shots with a good mixture of wooded and open holes. "

"Do the 18, 6 in the woods are in bad shape. "

"I can’t take any stars away, but U disc needs to get an update on the course. 14-18 closed. "

"Very awesome course, challenging shots and very scenic spots. "

"Would have rated higher if not for holes 14-18ish. Shouldn't be included, I would even classify as dangerous and pointless. Perfect example of "just because you can, doesn't mean you should.""

"An exceptionally fun challenge for a range of players. "

"A lovely course, and my best round to date!"

"Great course all around"

"Wow! What an Awesome course! Some real tight throws and tons of great technical throw possibilities. The tree pads need slight referb in the back, but overall Awesome course! "

"Best course ever"

"Great course. Needs some upkeep badly on portions. "

"Pars are a bit off but par ain’t nothin’ but a number "

"The heat got us "

"Long but fun"

"Get better baskets and put some directional signage up"

"Easily my favorite course in Cinci/NKY. But holes 14-18 are in need of some improvements to tee pads and stairs for safety."

"Used to be my home course. Have played it dozens of times and still love it. It has a variety of shot shapes, distances, and elevation changes. Pars are too easy on a few holes and need to be updated."

"One of the best courses I’ve ever played "

"Not a beginner course, some holes closed to construction, awesome course"

"Need news baskets, concrete tee boxes are nice"

"Really fun course, has a lot of different shots. Short/long, open, wooded. Elevation changes plenty. But not terribly difficult. Holes 14-17 remain closed down the creek"

"This course was fun overall. Although holes 14,15,16,17 we're a bit ridiculous down in that ravine."

"It's a nice little course to play I only made it to hole six or seven due to I had my family with me.. lost my trespass on hole 3 whoever finds it good luck cuz I didn't ink it yet"

"Great folks. Challenging course. I like the riverside holes… I have thrown plenty of discs away out here. Lmk if you find em. Ilyal"

"My personal favorite in NKY. Mix of different shots. Elevation. Awesome creek holes. Teepads are iffy on those holes. Great course overall though."

"The grass needed to be cut, holes 14-18 still closed. Besides that the course was in good shape with the rain that happened on Monday. Baskets are in good shape as wel"

"Tees from 12 to 20 need work "

"Nice course. Well maintained, good balance of open and wooded. Be prepared it is hilly so disc go rolling. Challenging shoots but not defeating."

"Amazing course, Love the elevation changes, some of the par rankings were a bit generous (multiple par fours could have been par threes, and the par five last hole is definitely a par four)"

"Wild course. Fun elevation and some technical shots. Also some open holes to enjoy some drives."

"One of my favorite courses ever. Lots of variety and many different types of shots. I lost an orange cryztal z mob series buzzz here like 8 years ago - I like to think it buried itself (and part of myself) into the course."

"Some fantastic holes! "

"Wet but nice, recommend on a dry day"

"Super muddy"

"Great course with nice variety of open and wooded holes. Over-generous course pars. Wooded holes tend to make you commit to specific lines with varying difficulty. Creek holes need better tee pads and not a huge fan of fairways playing along a walking path (though was very scenic playing with fall foliage)."

"Course slightly difficult to navigate "

"Well maintained, beautiful rolling hills. Nice fairways, even in the woods. Bring your hiking shoes. "

"Lots of great holes, very easy overall. Some of the open holes get repetitive, just throwing up and down a field."

"Fun and enjoyable course. "

"One of my favorite courses, anywhere. Mix of technical and long holes, some uphill some down some flat. Upkeep is phenomenal. A better practice area would get this to a full 5 stars but that's a minor complaint. "

"Fun course, needs better next hole markings."

"The pars are forgiving, the rough is not. You'll need a lot of control on your drives to avoid losing discs here. Skip this course if you wear barefoot/zero drop shoes (the large gravel rock paths on the back 9 will kill your feet and ankles). Hole layout itself is really nice and offers a chance to try out every shot in your arsenal. Wish the signage was better, easy to get lost between holes. "

"14-18 marked as closed, we found out after playing them and were very wet and difficult"

"Those gravel holes in the back are ratchet, otherwise this course really sets the standard"

"Amazing scenic course. Perfect challenge for intro players moving to intermediate play"

"Really scorable course. Don’t play 14-18 though. They’re not even playable. Well kept, good mix of holes!"

"Holes 14 - 18 are closed, but my group missed the sign so we played it. The rocks back there are wicked, but overall the course is nice. "

"Great up keep All holes are fun and slightly challenging with much hazards Tons of different looks Really fun 24 holes "

"Great course when dry like today. Playing the back 6 creek side for the extra 6 baskets can be challenging with narrow fairways and drop offs into the creek. "

"Really love this course. It has everything. Perfect mix of wooded, long and short, open holes and just some great challenges on some tough lines. Every hole has a trash can, place to sit and a sign for the hole except maybe one of the creek holes. Creek and a pond or two can claim discs. Loses a star because it’s laid out terribly. Tough to navigate without UDisc. But truly a Pro-Am level course that I thought was a fantastic play. "

"Epic course"

"Lots of good holes but quite a bit of janky holes that seem silly. But has an iconic last hole."

"If you don’t play 14-18, which are closed and terrible, it’s a good course. "

"One of my favorites. A long course but well designed. Not for the beginners. But forces you to learn your discs and shots. "

"long walks between holes. easy to get lost. Extremely fun course. "

"Very cool course. Mostly somewhat wooded to very wooded holes with a lot of shot variation and a few open distance holes. Lot of steep elevation changes. Rained a little bit as we were there making things very slippery, so would not recommend for people who can’t safely fall down."

"Need cutting soon "

"The Pars are way off but the course is a blast"

"Overall, a fun course. A lot of funholes, but also a handful of holes that weren't very fun. Definitely not a championship level course, but worth playing for sure "

"Well marked, lots of wide open shots and precise wooded shots. Well maintained. "

"This is my home course so this review comes from someone who plays it at least once a week. Lincoln Ridge is a great course but I feel like it's a bit overhyped. This is a great course and is one of the Big 4 but for how busy this course is and how much it gets played I feel it is a bit too highly rated. Most of the shots are shorter I don't really use anything faster than a mid until hole 11. If you haven't played it I would reccomend highly just not the most interesting after your 50th round. "

"Couple holes closed, was just in okay condition. "

"One of the Big 4 courses in the area. Lives up to the billing"

"Great course! Lots of longer holes and some technical shots"

"Very cool course. Lots of really soft pars. But a fun well designed course with a lot of fun different shots."

"1st Round here. Extremely playable, enjoyed it tremendously.. LOST MY HYUNDAI SMART KEY SOMWHERE ON THE COURSE...LOL"

"Dry. Looking good "

"Great! Lots of elevation. Crowds move through pretty well"

"Beautiful course with nice elevation changes"

"Very fun course. Not that challenging but a lot of technical shots."

"Layout is nice, but I wish I could have gotten a call back from my disc "

"Course is a well rounded Fun Challenge. A lot of unique throws that require specific shot types. Mud is the only problem on this course. And man, it’s a real problem. "

"Overall great course. Some tee pads need clearing and some basket have sunk some and are leanings bit. Beautiful scenery. The diversity of holes keeps the round interesting."

"Good course but a bit short. Only brought out a driver for 3 holes. "

"Great course. Currently very sloppy and muddy though. Makes hills very sketchy hiking up and down."

"Very muddy sloppy course on 12/6. Needs some maintenance and wood chips on trails. Not usually like this in summer."

"H A R D course."

"Great course with open and wooded shots. Be ready to hike up and down the hills."

"Super fun course! I personally like the woods holes the best but all the holes are fun. Needs new T pads on the last few woods holes but looks like a work in progress. So worth it to stop and play."

"Great course with different elevations and shot shapes. Could use an upgrade in baskets and repair on holes that are unplayable. "

"Been playing this course for a few years. Its one of my favorites. Haven't had a chance to play Idlewild yet, would imagine it's just as good if not better than Idlewild. "

"Big turkey vultures..Don’t recommend bringing children or small dogs "

"Would be 5 but not one of the 24 tee pads has an accurate description of the basket"

"Great course, lots of elevation and was well maintained. Would definitely play again "

"14-18 are particularly tough. Rest of the course was top notch and fun"

"Par is to high"

"4” riprap was not the answer for 15-17. Mulch was, and LOTS of it. Probably cheaper, too. They are standstill holes now, the entire way. It might be good for my grandchildren. I have a 6 yr old. Probably should shut those down altogether if that’s the effort and re-number the course. "

"Great course"

"All holes were accessible. Played all 24 and grass was freshly cut with landscaping cutting again while we were playing. Great upkeep, fun course."

"15-16 need finished don’t understand whys taking so long. "

"Ravine holes are rough, everything else is great"

"Pars are a little easy"

"Challenging course lots of hills but overall great to play"

"CAUTION HOLES 14-16. Almost got taken out by a stray disc teeing off 15. These holes are along a nasty dropoff with no barrier or rails."

"Great course untill you get to fourteen. 14-18 sucks then to top it off they place a sign on hole 18 that 14-18 is closed!?"

"Hole 13 with the rock fairway of the original 18 is going to break someone’s leg "

"Great course! A true Gem of Disc Golf. Mix of Woods and open holes.Technical well designed holes. Well utilized Hills, creek, pond in scenic Mature well maintained park. 5 *on Fun scale. A must play for Cincinnati area. "

"Wear hiking boots and walk with caution (can be muddy after rains). Challenging technical shots, so think about your drives. Would love signs pointing to next tee."

"Muddy"

"Great variety, beautiful course"

"Grass is deep and wet."

"Good. A bit muddy from rain. "

"Still a great course even with 14-18 still not available. "

"Absolutely superb course! Challenging with a lot of variety without being repetitive or frustrating!"

"holes 14 thru 18 are closed"

"Well maintained. Holes 14-18 still unavailable. "

"All except all the cars parking in the grass along side hole 2&3 on the weekends the course is excellent and challenging "

"one of my fav courses, short but has room to air it out on some holes"

"Holes 14 to 18 are closed."

"Hands down the quintessential disc golf course"

"N ."

"Great layout"

"A bit muddy, but well maintained and technical. "

"Beautifully maintained course with a great combination of open, wooded, long and short holes. Technical and fun for players of all skill levels. "

"Favorite course in the area! Challenging, but accessible for a recreational player."

"Nice course. Very well kept. Challenging and hilly."

"Awesome course. Huge thanks to Eric N for showing me around and the #milkshake "

"New tee pads, hole 15 still suffering from erosion. Overall 4.5 stars"

"Drop dead gorgeous course!"

"Slippery"

"Being one of the bigger and nicer courses in the area it does need some tree and shrub maintenance. Otherwise good flowing course. "

"Fun course. A little difficult. Taken care of pretty well. "

"My favorite. It takes a long time to finish so go on a day off"

"Needs next tee signs but other than that a very good course for intermediates with some hole you can really air it out. Little muddy when rains but not really bad."

"Muddy. Half the tee pads where completely unplayable be slightly cracked...."

"Great course layout. Best in Cincinnati area."

"Was my home course for nearly a decade. Well maintained. Technical and demands every shot in the book. "

"Great course. One of my favorites if i can stay out of the creek."
