WaterWorks Park DGC

"Hills for days. Tough course. Good challenge."

"Tough course with all the elevation. Enjoyed the challenge. I can remember if it was hole 9 or 10 but the tee pad on udisc was different then the one in person. Also, the display on 17 is missing, which mad it a bit difficult to know where the basket was. I eventually worked it out. Park is well kept. Benches at every tee pad is a very nice touch"

"Amazing. Beautiful day. "

"I agree with the guy that said “this course fucks” not sure what this means, but the course was challenging and beautiful."

"This course fucks."

"Needs mowed bad"

"Better signage or arrows in the baskets pointing to the next tee would help one to more easily navigate this course. "

"Great course. No complaints at all. "

"Good course with a lot of great elevation change! Nice concrete tee pads which are visibly marked with metal numbers and hole layout. Baskets all have hole numbers on them with 3-4 basket locations.. "Next hole" location listed on each tea box sign to make for easy navigation of course. Park was clean with a lot of parking space. Only negative was basket 17 was missing today. But, the good news is you can just aim for the rock border of one of the basket locations. "

"Seriously dope as hell. The elevation changes make for a very fun time, and the views are top notch."

"Great signs and flags on every hole are a nice touch to what is a beautiful piece of land with views of Kansas City"

"Visiting from Nashville, and got this recommendation from a friend and boy oh boy it did not disappoint!! "

"Awesome course!"

"Super hilly but loads of fun. "

"Lots of hills, nice views, good walk"

"Best course I have ever played!"

"Fairly open, lots of elevation change."

"Had to play in a poncho cause of rain but overall such a great course I imagine when dry"

"Front 9 greens are so hard. Rough is impossible to throw out of. Beautiful holes "

"Kicked my ass but had a blast"

"Was in town to see Goose and let the discs fly! "

"Challenging and awesome! Lots of elevation changes. "

"Wow. Tough but fair course. First time I have played a course where elevation was the obstacle. Beautifully maintained. Quite the destination course. "

"Very challenging, awesome variety!!"

"First time to play this course. A great variety of challenges from tight wood holes to lofty and lowly elevations which makes you question your disc selections at every turn. And a beautiful sunny day to boot. I’ll be back to try and improve my score. "

"Coming from Minnesota where we have amazing courses! I can easily say Waterworks is on par with the best courses to play in the country! The hilly terrain is so unique, challenging, and all around fun!"

"This course is beautiful and incredibly tough! Be ready for a long day if it’s not coming off for ya! 3-5 are unforgiving so don’t throw your favorite discs! The elevation changes are a lot of fun challenges your disc selection. I’ll be back!"

"Great Variety. "

"A few holes are not beginner friendly, and lots of hill work. But fun shots all day "

"Great course. Much more intense than I was expecting for Missouri. A lot of up and down. Good use of trees and terrain. Multiple basket locations. A few were hard to find since it was my first time here. A couple people set up hammocks in the course so had to go around. My kids dropped out after a couple holes, which was good as it would have been too much for them."

"Lots of up and down uses a lot of different throws "

"Great shape this week! Looking good!"

"A classic KC course with great views and a great shop right down the road. Always happy to play here. "

"Awsome course , alot of hills / up and down . Really got to dial in your depth perception. Lots of fun"

"The Hype is real. Got to play the wide open layout too!"

"Holy hills"

"This course was amazing this morning, challenging off the first tee pad! Looking forward to coming back! "

"Great course and exercise"

"This course is really gorgeous but there are a lot of holes where you can throw your disc off the side of cliff. And there’s a LOT of hills. So if you have a roller bag, beware. "

"Hilly and beautiful golf course. Easy to lose discs for beginners on the front 9 but opens up the final 12 holes. One of the top courses I’ve had the pleasure of playing."

"Beautiful course, with lots of elevation change. Couple holes with steep drop offs at the edges, good way to lose a disc. Sweeping views on many holes. Pretty good workout over 18 holes!"

"Hole 14 is perfect."

"Hard as Hell, with grueling elevation changes. It’s tough to par/birdie holes for the first time coming to this course. "

"Beautiful, scenic, well maintained, challenging. It’s a championship level course."

"Deep drives. Long walks. Fun course. "

"Hell yeah 🤙"

"This course is a succubus, it’ll take your breath away…. And they take your breath away"

"Fun course and elevation! Tee pads sadly aren’t great though. Slipped a lot and bricks are in the way. "

"Fix siganage"

"The photography makes the game interesting. Going around a lot of trees makes the game interesting. 5 inches maybe three never stop song there is no tall grass the grass is 3 to 5 inches and you can’t lose your disconnect."

"Amazing course!"

"Such an amazing course. Loved it."

"Really cool elevation changes. Challenging for sure considering all par 3"

"Awesome course!"

"The course terrain definitely makes the course challenging and fun. Seems like the layout could be a little smoother…or better use of the property. "

"VERY hilly so expect a lot of walking, but a nice mix of holes throughout the course make for a great course design."

"Awesome course! Great elevation and hole variation. Excellent tees and signs. Couple confusing walks between holes for the first time but if you reading this you using udisc. Great course not too far off the interstate!"

"Nice course, great use of elevation, good layout, challenging, seems like it’s well maintained."

"Up and down. Up and down. You’ll get a good hike and good views on this course. Fun and challenging enough for an average player. "

"Great layout, good balance of distances. "

"Make sure you’re in shape for this one."

"Great course. Every you could want in a course."

"Unbelievable course. If you’re coming to KC from out of state hit this up!"

"Very challenging course!"

"Basket placements are incorrect; have to choose the hole every time "

"Great course. It was a little muddy and slick on the course mostly on the front 9. "

"One of the best courses in KC. "

"Great challenging course, lots of elevation change!"

"I love how there are multiple holes for each one, However I wish they would keep at least two out for each hole that way people can have more fun with different holes at a time. Other than that my favorite course I’ve played on so far and I love how you can see Kansas City from every hole!!"

"Awesome course"

"Awesome use of trees, elevation, and green placement. Tees need work. "

"Great course! Fun design, playable for anyone, but challenging. A lot of verticality, be ready for a lot of up- and downhill shots. "

"Fun course. A lot of elevation. Not a woods course but plenty of trees and some tunnel shots. A bit of risk on a few holes on the front 9, but that’s the only real potential to lose a disc. Overall fun course and will definitely play again."

"Beautiful. Hilly. Nice coarse. "

"A must play in KC"

"best course in KC"

"Sometimes a bit unintuitive to get to the next hole. It’s a tight, but open course that was well kept. Played the short positions so it was pretty straight forward shots. "

"Favorite course in metro KC"

"Needs some upkeep."

"Hella-Ela-vation changes. Challenging to say the least. But not extraordinarily hard. Right handlers gotta watch out for hole 4. Sudden drop off the fairway to the left. "

"This is a premium grade course. Not for the faint of heart or stamina. Perfect layout from beginning to end. Tons of elevation changes that create incredible challenges. Trees are abundant and beautiful. Top-Notch course. Top ten for me personally. It has everything you want in a course. "

"Brilliantly designed course. Super fun, slightly technical. I will be back for sure. "

"Great course with lots of elevation and tricky lines. Great baskets and signs."

"Very hilly hiking. Baskets have heavy chains that will reject light putters! Must be able to put up/down hills. Minimal parking."

"perfectly maintained, beautiful views, great elevation changes and accuracy shots"

"TOUGHY!!!! Not many birdies out to play "

"Classic KC"

"Extreme elevation course!! Has a lot of pin positions Which makes it difficult to find the basket that is in play. Overall a nice course."

"Flags need to be replaced but the course is great. "

"This is an elevation player's ideal course. Basically all the holes are on a gradient and also have only a few viable lines (in some cases only one viable line). Well-maintained but lost half a star because the pin layouts aren't really well-marked. VERY easy to lose accuracy on this one as your disc will roll 50+ feet downhill if you don't land correctly."

"Gorgeous, challenging (uphill, gaps, defended baskets), and well maintained. "

"Extremely hilly "

"One of the best courses in the area! Must have all shots"

"Great all around course! Very hilly and slightly difficult."

"Great course "

"Amazing course but what in the He'll is the KC parks depth thinking? Empty the damn trash cans!.. Looks like other players have been bagging up the cans for the parks dept just to keep the place from going to complete he'll. LOVE THE COURSE!"

"Fun course. Really nice layout. All longs is only ok for a tournament. "

"Get good at this course, and you’ll be good at disc golf. Great variety of shots."

"Challenging technical course but is immaculate with a lot of iconic holes. Definitely not for beginners. Be prepared to shoot and walk up and down a lot of elevation."

"Very iconic course! Must play "

"Great course. Beautiful. "

"Pretty decent course. Lots of up and downhills so be ready for that. Muddy after rain. Signage can be confusing. Otherwise a pretty nice course."

"The course is stunning, difficult and fun as heck! Only downsides are: difficulty finding next hole on first play through, unfortunate amount of trash and lots of air traffic on weekends. These are minor issues in comparison with the quality of the course overall."

"Incredibly thick grass and horrible mud"

"A bit of mud throughout"

"Incredible course! Lots of open shots, elevation, and benches!"

"Bring your trekking poles"

"Cool course worth playing! Was quite slippery and muddy after the rain yesterday and it could use chips or rocks for some grip. Markers for which pin position each hole is in. Otherwise a great course. "

"It was wet with the clay the front nine was very slippery could use grass or wood chips to help"

"Baskets change locations frequently and trash should be picked up better but it’s a good course to develop your skills. "

"Beautiful course and location 1500/10"

"Beautiful course, up and down, lengthy"

"Pretty tough course. "

"Amazing course! The placement was a little confusing for scorekeeping, but didn't detract from the quality of the course."

"Absolutely stunning course unlike anything I've ever played. The holes are so challenging yet so fun, the elevation plays a huge part in that. 4 pin positions can keep things fresh year-round. Will definitely have to come out here again some day."

"Lots of hills and extreme elevation changes, not cart friendly, gorgeous "

"Super hilly"

"Concrete tees are nice, Lots of undulation, intermediate course"

"Really nice views and layout. Was dry today, passing through on our way to the DDO we stopped and played. Perfect for that!"

"Real muddy. Cool course."

"Fun course with some technical shots and long bombers from elevation "

"Great course layout around the old woods and elevation changes. A must-play in KC."

"Great course. Challenges you to use your full arsenal. Many holes dictate that you play for 3 as the consequences far outweigh your birdie chances. "

"Such an amazing course, one of the best in KC! Fun elevation and tricky slopes!"

"Great park. A good intermediate course. Extremely hilly and a few drop offs where you can loose a disc. Other than that great course."

"NOT GOOD FOR CARTS. Fun shorter course with lots of elevation change and decent mix of wooded and “open” holes. Still lots of trees no matter what. "

"Hills and great view of city"

"Hilly elevation change makes for a challenge in the snow. Hallways with cliff banks make an intimidating front nine. Fun overall. "

"Great mix of open fairways and elevation changes. Well thought out design. Easy to navigate. The absolute best in KC. Wind & pin placements make many holes more challenging than they look on paper. Beautiful views. Loved it."

"Truly amazing course! You get some great views out there! Kind of a workout with all the hills. Not beginner friendly either. One of my favorites! "

"Muddy"

"Loved the course. Much hill"

"Very challenging! The topography of this course is crazy. Up and down, up and down. The teepads, baskets, and signage is great also. This course is also very popular because of the skyline view of KC. It isn't very beginner friendly, there are other courses better suited for a family game."

"18 holes with multiple pin locations. Kind of disappointing that everything was in the short position. But Killer views with non stop up and down shots!"

"Really cool pulling into the park and seeing the elevation changes immediately. Nice view of the city in the background. Cannot be stated enough not to miss left on holes 3-5 as there is a steep dropoff"

"Beautiful course with lots of rolling hills. Technical and fun! Great variety of shots! This course will test your game! "

"Slappers only"

"Somebody needs to rake. Other than that, awesome course, had a ton of fun!"

"this course is hard af for newbies "

"Hills are beautiful, amazing Mach x baskets, beautiful city in the background. Best course in KC for sure. Challenging but amazingly fun. I would say top 100 course in the world. Kicks Ass."

"Well kept course. The hills make it a nice challenge."

"A KCMO disc golf staple. One of the originals that everyone should play. Leave your cart behind for this one. "

"Water does in fact work"

"Good, fun course. Lots of hills, some narrow holes. Not course friendly."

"Not cart friendly but fun course. "

"Beautiful course with a great mix of wooded and open holes. The elevation differences are the distinguishing factors."

"Nice! "

"Absolute gem of a course. 6/5 if possible"

"Could use a mow"

"Excellent course! So glad to finally play it. 🙂"

"Great course, lots of elevation change, some steep climbs. "

"VERY HILLY lots of up and down but otherwise well maintained."

"What a beautiful course! Well laid out and challenging. Has always been in decent shape when I've played. Tons of fun, and you get a decent hike in while you play."

"Best course in the city!"

"Very muddy and wet"

"Fun, challenging course with good upkeep. "

"My favorite course in the area (I've only been to 5-10). Beautiful view and the layout is nearly perfect."

"Ditto patb1735"

"So many hills. It’s all up hill (dramatic)"

"Great signage, good elevation changes, and a variety of shots needed. My favorite course so far."

"This course is one I prefer to play in small groups (usually 3 max). Very fun and one of the most up kept courses in KC. Has everything a good course should have! "

"Great course! Fun terrain. Prepare for the hike. Lots of shade. "

"Great upkeep. Pretty technical on a lot of the holes. Lots of fun! "

"Good upkeep, good challenges "

"Played this course for the first time today and it was every bit as good as everyone makes it out to be. Will definitely be back to play again."

"Brandon said yes"

"Best course in KC, the difficulty, the terrain, beautiful"

"Hard long, up & down course. Really neat & unique"

"Definitely some hiking with some steep hills. Not a good beginner course. Easy to lose discs in the woods as they go down hill and some spots are narrow. The up keep of them course is very good. It’s a great course all in all."

"Prepare for a hike"

"It’s fun to throw far a lot of times "

"Great course! Good mixture of wide open and pretty technical shots. The hills and views make this one of the prettiest courses I’ve played! Love this and will for sure visit again! "

"Tough course lots of up and down hills, pack light, wear good shoes, take your time and don't wear yourself out. Have someone spot your throws due to first couple going through woods. Needs some mowing"

"Good course. Lost a blue star destroyer around 12:15pm on 8/1. If anyone finds please let me know. "

"Needs a now but nice 👍🏼"

"Awesome course, tons of elevation changes, elevated tee shots, and great views of downtown KC!"

"Lots of hills watch your ankies "

"Awesome course, played it for the first time today. Lots of elevation change which is fun. Tee boxes are nice. Not as busy as I thought it would be on a Saturday evening either!"

"up and down. harder in the back"

"Shitters full... "

"This course is incredible! Lots of change in elevation, good variance in distance, and kept up very well. Prepare for a workout!"

"A beautiful workout. Eat your Wheaties before you come."

"Very difficult but fun"

"Amazing and well maintained course, be prepared for big elevation changes"

"Needs better signage. "

"Really interesting course, but desperately needs better signage."

"Lots of elevation change and a difficult variety of shots. Well labeled with good cement tee pads. Signage needs replacing on some holes. "

"Be ready for a hike!! Badly needs tee box signs. If there were larger teepads it would be a modern championship level course"

"Multiple pin locations but no way to know which is in use. No maps on pads or signage for next hole. "

"One of the more beautiful courses in the KC area. It has wooded tighter shots, elevation, and more open shots. It’s a hike and takes endurance just to finish playing! Only downside is the signage. Its weird that one of the best courses in the nation doesn’t really have good signage. Makes it hard for people who have never played the course!"

"It is tough, but a beautiful, fun course to play with friends. Prepare to walk a lot and sweat!"

"I okay this course often. It is popular so you may be waiting. The grass is not always kept on time, but it rains often so that factors in. Lots of elevation change and hole variance. "

"Very muddy"

"Wasn't impressed very full of slow people 👎🏻"

"Looks fun, but heat, elevation, and lack of signage KILL this course. Needs quite a bit of upkeep"

"Tee box needs signs and a way to show the current basket."

"Love the elevation changes. It's easy enough to where you can play anytime, but challenging enough to where you have fun. They have beautiful scenery as well, so that just adds to the fun. Definitely recommend this course, would give it more stars if I could. "

"One of the best courses I've ever played! Can definitely see why it's on so many peoples top course list! Badly in need of course signs though...."

"Great course. Lots of elevation change. Can get very crowded so go early!"

"Disc golf heaven "

"Mud, mud, and mud."

"Very beautiful park, wide open and varied, the back holes sometimes got too close to the road, navigation signs were recently redone on the course."

"Probably the coolest course in the area, lots of elevation change and a very fun course to play. Only downfall is the lack of signage - makes it tougher for first time players of the course "

"Outstanding design, but a number of the teepads are way, way too short, and have significant drop offs so if you accidently step off the teepad then you're screwed. It was definitely affecting my run up and the amount of power I could get, which is frustrating."

"Fun course. A lot of elevation change. Many good challenges "

"I’d give a 5 if it had tee signs"

"Course is in great condition!"

"Nice course with good elevation but not very difficult "

"great views and nice elevation ... need to come back when pins in longer spots"

"playes in semi snowy conditions; pins were set up differently, but confusing because the pins werent synced up with UDisc or the map - possibly because of tournament? Overall great course "

"Can’t wait to come back and play the full thing!!"

"Fantastic. 6 stars"

"Hilly willy"

"where is the mulch?"

"Nice equipment, confusing layout. Needs better signage and maps on the teepads. Lots of up and down and some challenging shots. "

"Couple of holes with taller grass. Otherwise clean and fun to play "

"Throw over stable when windy"

"Easily one of the nicest public courses out there. Beautiful fairways, options for lines to take, well kept teepads, multiple pins for variety. Great for all skill levels."

"1st hole looks for solid blue. Other teepads and holes simpler after that. Mostly dry. Few “spongey” areas"

"Very hilly loved the course one of tge best i have played on"

"Needs a mow but not bad"

"Wonderful course in north Kansas City currently very muddy I do not recommend anyone playing till dry"

"Beautiful course, a lot of hills. The first few holes were a little confusing to find for a first timer. "

"Tee pads recently redone to provide better grip. Most beautiful disc golf course in the KC area"

"The only flaw right now is the lack of course signage. Nothing to indicate hole length or correct basket for the hole. I’m sure the locals don’t have a problem with that, but even with UDisc there were some holes I just wasn’t sure about. "

"Very steep inclines and declines, but pretty wide open and fun!"

"Very unique course with extreme elevation changes throughout, physically brutal in summer. Variety comes from elevation rather than hole placement. "

"Tee signs are apparently being redone and are currently unreliable or nonexistent. With new signs easily a 5 star course, must play if in the area."

"Gnarly, hilly, tough pin positions."

"great fun course w challenging shots"

"great place so much fun! Supper hilly"

"This is a great casual course. Good views and change in terrain (expect hills) little variation in par stroke counts as most holes are par 3 mostly doable. Would definitely recommend. "

"Awesome course with a wide variety of shots. Lots of elevation. Good concrete tee pads and fairly easy to navigate."

"course was a blast to play. Mud wasn’t much of a factor but could tell it had been in prior days/weeks. It was one hell of a work out! With that said, totally worthy every incline and deep hole I put my foot in. Holes are well laid out and easy to navigate. Will definitely return. "

"Great use of elevation. Only major issue is when the course gets muddy it is nearly unplayable."

"Lots of elevation changes, good mix of open and wooded shots. Highly recommend."

"My first time playing WWP today. In from San Diego on vacation and had to play. I loved the course, loved the views and the vibe of the course. I can completely see how this course would be a lot harder when the forage is full. I would love to come back maybe in the spring to play again. There were benches at every hole, trash cans every where, and I felt it was easy to navigate the course. "

"Set for scoring "

"Fantastic course with a ton of hills, views, and cool and demanding shots. I usually ascend the equivalent of 30+ flights of stairs over the course of a round. Try to avoid throwing into the woods on the left on holes 3-5."

"If playing for 1st time recommend going w/ someone who had played it before. "

"immaculate but the current pin placement is a little short/boring"

"Very poorly kept up park. Trash everywhere! I was really excited to play this course, and ended up really disappointed. There were some great shot and amazing views, but I just wasn't feeling it."

"17s basket is leaning over"

"This course is great! Variety of shots"

"Grass a little long on half of the fairways. Not too difficult most pin placements ars straight ahead. All par 3's"

"great course with amazing views, needs new baskets."

"Lots of hills. Longer holes. Challenging, but fun."

"The new baskets are awesome. "

"Amazing course. I forgot to keep scores because it was one of the best courses I have been too. I loved it"

"Iconic course"

"Great course. Be careful though lots of woods to throw into. "

"Came in from out of town. Glad I played this course. One of the prettier courses i’v played. Bring your hiking shoes"

"Grass is a little long in spots but otherwise it’s perfect. "

"17 is at the top of the hill slightly to the right of where your first shot lands. "

"Lots of rolling hills "

"Beautiful course with lots of elevation. Bring water. "

" You can't beat this place. Lots of fun. "

"One of the best courses in Kansas City depending on who you ask. One of the best opening holes I've ever played. Lots of elevation to deal with and need a good first drive to play well here"
