They have a variety of types of holes, to challenge you and let you experience an all disc golf trip, with enough variety for just about anything you can think of.
My trip to Highbridge
Three friends and I took a trip to Highbridge last June. We left the Twin cities on Friday morning and stopped and played a course in Wisconsin on the way. I can't remember the name of the first one. It wasn't memorable. We then stopped at Telemark ski resort and played the course there, very nice course, worth playing again. We got to Highbridge at around 6Pm and set up the camper and played Blueberry Hill that evening. Saturday morning we got up and played all 6 courses that day. We played 100 holes in the one day. After playing 62 holes the day before. To finish the day off, we were at the Chestnut Grove course, we met a guy there that was very good, he was showing us some shots and he aced a 210 foot hole with his putter. It was a cool way to end the day.

The Courses
The Chestnut Grove course is fairly open, it was only 9 holes when I was there, it is suppose to be expanded to 18 this summer. The Gold course was my least favorite course there. Not that it is a bad course, but it is extremely long, the course is just over 10,000 ft for 18 holes. Hole #8 is just under 1400ft by itself, it is a par 5 though. Blueberry Hill, Granite Ridge, Woodland Greens, and the Bear, are all very well laid out and fun to play. They vary the terrain and you go in and out of the woods. They are all challenging and worth the time to play.
There are 4 other courses that they are working on and they say will be open this year. They are Bear Woodland, Blue Ridge, Granberry, Whitetail.
Just got an update from John at Highbridge, the Blue ridge course and the Granberry course, and the other nine of Chestnut are being played now. Whitetale and the completion of The Bear will happen this fall and winter.
Lodging
They have a camp ground on the complex with 75 sites. They also have an area where you can hook up your camper with electricity. There is the Honka house, in the picture above, where you can stay for $20 per night. They do have package specials for golf and a place to stay. The package for the spring and fall is 2 nights at the Honka house and 3 days of disc golf for $59 per person. The cost for disc golf is $5 per round or $10 for the day.
Other things to do
They are adding Mountain bike trails this summer, and hiking trails. This is not the place to take your family for a vacation, unless your spouse also is hooked on disc golf. If you want to go just to play disc golf, you will not be disappointed, you can play to your hearts content and then play some more. To check out each course you can see them all here.
