Welcome to Greystone Woods DGC
Greystone Woods is the first disc golf course in Morris County NJ. Located in Central Park, Morris Plains, N.J. This 18 hole course has three tees and one basket per hole( some are combined). The blue tees (longs) are par 64 with a total distance of 7528 feet. The white tees (regular) are par 58 that come in at 5495 feet. The red tees (shorts) are par 55 with total distance of 4062. This course is built on a beautiful piece of land that has two small lakes separated by a dam, a stream ( The North Branch Whippany River) that comes into play on 3 holes, and many good elevations changes which makes it quite challenging and a lot of fun. Course designers Jeff Mahler and Eric Robbins were careful to make sure the layout did not favor either left hand or right hand players, it’s pretty much an even split across the 18 holes.
Signature hole 9 blue ( par 4) stretches 432 feet across the lower lake ( Home page picture) for a excellent risk\reward opportunity where you can throw it safely 150 feet off the tee and stay dry, or go for the big 280 ft bomb to clear the lake and go for the birdie. Go for it. The course has four uphill and seven downhill shots off the tees and the remaining are pretty flat even though the course is built at the base of Mountain Way Park. Construction started in the fall of 2012 and was completed for the opening day event on August 10th 2014 although course improvements are an ongoing effort.
This course was built entirely by volunteers. In the first three years the Mighty 3 (Jeff, Eric, and Jbyrd) started the initial ground breaking, fairway cutting, and brush removal. As we came closer to completion many more volunteers stepped in to help. We had a lot of great work days with a lot of great people to make installing this course happen. Since opening day the volunteers base has grown 10 fold. Join Us! We are now proud to offer annual membership to the Greystone Woods Disc Golf Club which is a not-for-profit organization of local folks that want to grow, enhance, and improve disc golf in Morris County, NJ.
