Tight Woods and Egg Baskets at Lake Stevens Disc Golf Course

Lake Stevens Disc Golf Course is a compact, technical round tucked into tall trees next to Pilchuck Elementary. Fairways are narrow with low ceilings, and a few boggy spots add risk. The custom “egg” baskets change putting angles from hole to hole. Keep drives clean, land on the smart side of the target, and the course flows fast.

Course Overview

The route threads through second-growth forest with tight windows and guarded greens. Most holes land between 160 and 340 feet, so angles beat raw power. Ground play matters. In dry months, firm soil adds extra skip. In the wet season, low areas get slick and shallow water can collect around a few fairways. Navigation is straightforward once you settle in. Tee signs mark each pad, and bridges help with crossings. Expect a steady rhythm and a loop that finishes near where you started.

Amenities & Practice

Tee signs and directional help are posted at the pads. Metal bridge work improves footing at crossings. The unique basket design adds variety and rewards smart approach angles. There is no clubhouse listed, so plan to warm up with putts near the first tee and light throwing where space allows.

Food & Beverage

Bring your own snacks and water. Make sure you pack out what you bring in.

Rates / Booking / Local Tips

Play is free and first-come. A disc retriever saves time around boggy spots. Use the UDisc map on a first visit to keep the group moving. The alternate 7a appears in some layouts, and additional tee sets exist—confirm your route before you start. Most scoring comes from clean tee shots with putters and mids.

Final Word
