Charlie Vettiner Park is one of the city's major recreation and leisure zones. This tiny speck of green in the city of Louisville, provides a healthy albeit momentary break from the daily hustle and bustle. While it is best known for its 18-hole golf course and disc golf area, the park also contains soccer fields, a children's playground and picnic spots, that make it a hit amongst those looking for some competitive sporting action.

We went to the park because of a cross country meet. It is a beautiful and big park. There is s lot of playground equipment for the children to use, even for a bunch of kids coming with family for a meet. There are picnic tables and trees to shade them. There is ample parking. We just went there for the meet but I think it would be a good place to explore further, and a place to go to have fun with the family
MoreExercise, walk, enjoy the open space. Fun to watch frisbee throwing! Picnics! Fall colors! Winter sledding fun. Great spot!
MorePro: ...Zoysia fairways were awesome. ...The greens were very large and the bent grass was in perfect shape. Almost no ball marks. ...Lots of cool dog legs. ...Very Scenic with lots of elevation change. ...It was a difficult course which made it fun for my husband because he is a good golfer (tight tee shots on several holes and uphill shots into the greens). ...Folks in the clubhouse were very helpful and nice. ...Unique practice areas - huge putting green, small, undulating sand and pitching green, and an open short game area where you use your own balls to practice short shots. Con: ...There were a few hidden hazards which makes it difficult for new players like me. A creek that you cannot see from the tee box goes across the first fairway. It is also downhill into the creek which makes the first shot problematic. Also bunkers in dog legs that you cannot see from the tee box. Other holes you tee off over a hill with no idea what is on the other side. ...The rough is okay but there were some bare spots and washouts. ...Bunker's were not maintained at all. They were wet, had standing water, had goose poop and leaves. ...Did not find any water to drink anywhere on the course. ...The only useful yardage markers in the fairways were for 100 150 and 200 yards. ...Most sprinkler heads were blank but I saw one that said 171, when it was actually about 130 out. ...No driving range
MoreGreat first experience at trying disc golf here. Course was well laid out and involved plenty of walking, which made for active family fun!
MoreHad a company get together and lunch. Park was very clean. Bathrooms not so much. Beautiful setting.
