Insider tips

Bring your own disc golf kit, as there is no on-site equipment rental.

The park is highly exposed to the wind coming off Lake St. Clair, so bring an extra layer even on warm days.

Check local weather forecasts for the lake, as conditions can differ significantly from inland Tecumseh.

What to avoid

Attempting to play the disc golf course during high-wind warnings, as the open layout makes retrieval difficult.

Good to know

Park facilities, including the disc golf course, are subject to winter closures when snow levels are high.

Etiquette

Practice pack-in, pack-out waste disposal; yield to pedestrians on shared pathways; keep pets on a leash at all times.
