Hoodsport Hills Disc Golf Course Overview
Hoodsport Hills is classic Northwest woods golf. Most fairways are carved through tall timber with just enough clearance to reward a straight release. Elevation is a constant. You will throw uphill placement shots one hole, then face a fast downhill drive the next. Distances tend to be short to medium, which keeps the round welcoming for newer players while giving experienced throwers plenty of technical work with putters and mids. Wayfinding has improved over the years with signs and next-tee markers. Pack water, good shoes, and a light bag—you will feel the climb.

Rates / Booking / Local Tips
Play is free, and no tee times are taken. Weekends can be busy; mornings are usually open. Bright discs help in summer when ferns and salal grow in. On wet days, take shorter run-ups and favor stable plastics on the downhill holes. Give hikers and other park users the right of way where trails cross fairways.
