Absolutely love this park it is one of Lansings hidden gems. Simple to find with paved walking trails that run next to the river. Dogs I absolutely love this park also.

This is really how this landed and for the record it didnt count as a hole. 4 stars for no easy to find map of course, score of course and beer cans in bushes everywhere. Disk baskets could be painted to see better. Someone in a wannabe blue cop looking truck riding horses and allows them to dedicate everywhere; by baskets and on trails. This is not a horses park. A hole

This is been here for many years now, earning the name grand much like a parent whos child had a child. The woods are of a good size and fairly traverse able by foot path and include water make sure to bring your own bottle of water because you will be needing it after walking miles and soaking in the scenery. You may play golf with a fisbee circle, perhaps it is popular. There were people there. The seasons change and you are witness as the colors turn the most decadent shades of plum and sienna. Bring a change of cloth for picnic, be wary of poison ivy it is native to the land and easily transferable. I love you very much grand woods, thank you for your service.

We went there to eat our dinner. They had a pavilion and looked like an enclosed building for gatherings. There were picnic tables throughout and grills. They had plenty of parking and they also have a disc golf course there. It was well kept and we would go there again.

Playgrounds are in good shape. Also has a nice R/C track for enthusiasts. Disc golf course is fairly well kept up for a free course. Holes 4 and 5 are just unplayable though. The hidden holes after 6 make up for it though I suppose.

A beautiful sprawling park with a lot of wooded areas for hiking and getting some steps in. I especially like the disc golf course, which I have used throughout the past 20 years. There is a nice little RC track to use. Numerous areas set up with grills for gatherings. All in all, one of the better parts in the Lansing area, in my opinion.

For being in the middle of Lansing, It takes you away and makes you feel much further north. And as well as being clean and well maintained. It also offers something for the kids. I highly recommend it for any avid disk golfers.

Wooded trails frequenting people, open fields, pavilions and families and disc golf. The park was not crowded, though there were people around. Great spot to walk (run), picnic and play.

Great mature disc golf course in the woods. Good mix of open and tight tree holes with a few water hazards along the way. All cement tee pads with chainstar baskets. Can be flooded with lots of bugs in spring and early summer.Bag them chains!

This park is a really nice place to walk in the woods and look at the river. It can be quite busy with disc golfers.

Review №13

The disc golf course was very narrow, thick, and unkempt. If maintained better, it could be very nice. The rest of the area has some nice pavilions and such

This rating/review is for the disc golf course only. Not the park as a whole. We travel all over the state playing as many course as we can, but will not be playing this course again. Holes were flooded, making them impossible to play. The mosquitoes were extremely thick. The baskets were old, and definitely need to be upgraded. I can deal with all that, as it is a free course. My biggest issue was the lack of signage. We kept getting lost, and didnt know where the next hole was, or couldnt figure out where the basket was from the teepad. Theres also play equipment near the course so we had to deal with kids running through the fairway. Positives: cement teepads, picnic table and trash can at almost every hole

This is one of my favorite parks in the Lansing park system. Its great for walking especially on the disc golf course. There are amenities that are different from other parks including a RC vehicle track and a wilderness area. There are picnic benches and rest areas in both sunny areas and in the midst of the woods. Its a great place for making small kids feel like they are on a wilderness exploration.

Review №45

We took a nice Fall stroll through the park. I was surprised to find how large it was and how well mapped out ! The disc golf course is well marked and looks like lots of fun ! The views are wonderful with a trail along the river and also a large pond . Pavilions are available for rent and playground equipment is maintained . The only disappointment is that there is no bathroom facility. It is always locked. Cross country runners often use the trails and dog walkers are frequently seen . So put on your walking shoes and get out there !

Review №52

The park on a normal day would sit between 4 and 5 stars for me. Its a solid park that has most standard and some above and beyond standard features. It has two different play areas for kids, pavilions that you can rent, decent bathrooms, decent parking, lots of trails, a large RC car race track, a very nice disc golf course, and lots of open space for activities you may want to do. The thing that puts my rating over the top is the events. Some of the events they host here, like the recent, Kids Mud Run, are pretty cool. Definitely look up some upcoming events and check them out. Theyre also pet friendly (leashed). They even have a drinking fountain for the pups.

I grew up near here, so it was a pretty common place to go. Its amazing how many people I talk to who have no idea what or where this park is. Theyve got a fun disc golf course and some fun trails to walk on. Lots of picnic tables and grills. Lots of stuff to keep the kids busy. Very peaceful so close to the city.

Review №64

Great disc golf course. Perfect place for a long walk or a quick one, depending on what trail you take. The bathrooms have always been clean and stocked when I use them. There are a couple small playgrounds within the park that are wonderful for young children. There is also a mini track where Ive seen remote control cars and trucks race. The park has multiple picnic tables and at least one pavilion that can be reserved for parties. Just an amazing all around park. Oh, dogs on a leash are welcome too!

Review №69

Super nice park. Disc golf course is fairly technical and really makes you weigh the risk/reward in going for the pin. There are a few places where you could lose a disc to water but when I went (September) the water was down which opened up the fairways by the swampy area a little more. Theres foliage but its not overly thick so if you go off the fairway on the wooded holes its not too difficult to find it. Having cement tee pads are nice, James Conrad would appreciate the length of them.The baskets are garbage though due to their age. Bring your putting A-game because if youre a tiny bit off center youre getting a spit out. Theres a couple of more modern baskets which makes the old baskets seem even more jarring. Im not a local and probably wont be here again for a while so I cant really speak for any DG clubs, but I would suggest they hold a fund raiser for new baskets.

It was a nice park. Its still a bit cold out, so, everything was up and running yet. They have a cool track for RC cars. A disc golf course. 2 playgrounds. A bathroom. A pavilion, baseball field. Tracks to hike, run, or ride a bike on. Woods to walk through and explore and its right on the grand river.

The course and the trails are very pretty. But be very careful if u r a beginner level player. You will loose discs here as some of the holes are tricky and right on the water. I lost my driver here :( Intermediate or high skilled players will love this course. Cheers
