Our Newest Family-Friendly Activity - DISC GOLF at PRIMLAND

June 6, 2013
Disc golf – flies into Primland this summer! Anyone aged 5 through 90 can enjoy this game, modeled after golf but played with flying discs. The 18-hole course has two sets of tee boxes – for beginners and more advanced players. The course was designed by George Sappenfield, a pioneer of disc golf who organized the first official Disc Golf Tournament in 1969. Winding through woodland and meadows, the Primland course is a par 60 and is 4,462 feet long from the back tee boxes and 2,842 feet long from the shortest.

This fun, competitive game is open to overnight guests as well as guests without lodging reservations. There is no charge to play for overnight Primland guests. Guests without lodging reservations will be charged $10 a round and all disc rental sets are $15.
