Course Updates:
Rendezvous Disc Golf course has recently been renovated! Frolfers now start near the Aurora school shared parking lot, right next to the sand volleyball court. The renovated course is now about 8,000 feet long. The holes range from approximately 214 feet to 1,522 feet with a hole average of roughly 433 feet, with hole 8 being unofficially the longest hole in the Fargo, Moorhead, West Fargo surrounding area. One unique feature of this layout is if you are looking to just play 9 holes you are able to go from hole 5 to hole 15 and stay a close distance from the parking lot!
We are planning to update all 18 tee boxes over the next year or two as funding allows us to, as well as adding a few more trees into the area. We hope that you all enjoy the new layout!
