Bijou Community Park

The most beautiful disc golf course! Clean, water fountain on the course, brooms at each hole to sweep the sand, and gorgeous views. I’ve been to many courses and this is by far my favorite

Just discovered this today! It’s so beautiful!!! Love the paths. It’s dog friendly and has a golf course near by.

With lots of snow like on last thanksgiving break the bike park turned into a decent sliding hills, perfect for kids. my 2 y. o also enjoyed the swing at the playground there.

Now includes a sweet bike park with 2 pump tracks, a BMX track and 3 jump lines.. . only in the dry months, of course. Really fun times!

Quiet, clean, open, and has a play area… all that we can ask for with two little boys. There does appear to be some construction going on.

I had not been here before but this is a very nice park with lots of trees. There is a good skate park here, a disc golf course, and a very nice dog park,
I really enjoyed their disc golf course — great course in a scenic setting. It helped too as it was a warm sunny beautiful amazing Lake Tahoe type of day!

While visiting Tahoe we brought our granddaughter here and I must say this was the cleanest park I have ever seen. In fact their was a work crew power washing the entire picnic area. Great place to bring the kids.

We are from out of town and found this course to be really fun. Some holes are difficult to find but the individual hole maps really help out. 27 holes so you get a lot of practice.

Place was lots of fun. Not a very hard course but the trees make it a bit tricky. I would play it again next time I am in lake Tahoe.

Not a bad park. It’s a bit old, but still rides well! A must visit if you’re in Tahoe. :)

One of the best courses I have played at. The course has 27 buckets so you can spend a good chunk of time here. Each hole has 2 – 4 buckets to choose from so you can vary the difficulty depending on your skill level. The course if very easy to follow and a lot of fun to play. We were in town for a week on vacation and played every day!

I tried out this in the winter and I must say, a beautiful course it is.
The only thing I didn’t like is that I got pretty difficult to find the next basket (no signs or anything to help figure it out)
Aside from that, this course was great!

Review for playground only.
I love bringing my little to this park. It was recently redone, so the main play structure in nice ‘n shiny. Two large slides, two slides for the toddler set (with a giant tube up to the larger slides that little ones can’t make it up by themselves), a small climbing wall & a variety of younger kid friendly activities (think teller window, spinning object finder). There are a few big kid swings and more toddler swings. A small dome-​shaped jungle gym structure and a dinosaur «skull» complete the picture.
Lots of stuff for kids of all sizes to interact with, and whoever laid out the park was rather smart — the main play structure is in the middle surrounded by all the other playthings. Great if you have a kid like mine who likes to run off at the drop of a hat unless she gets distracted by something — like a dinosaur skull.
My only complaint is that sometime the kids here are a little TOO big — like preteen big — and unsupervised. Makes it hard for a toddler to play.

The park has improved over the past few years, the Snack Shack at the park is great! the carry the whole line of Innova and Disc Craft so you dont have to worry if you forgot your discs. And after you are done playing stop by there for some cold treats! They have ice cream by the scoop and other refreshments! Great way to enjoy the Tahoe Outdoors!

They have recently spent a lot of time working on the course, removing trees, and debris. It looks better, you don’t hit 12 trees on every hole. (I didn’t say I was any good at disc golf!) I also love how the course changes throughout the season.

Disc golf in the summer!!! Always a good time! This course is a lot less challenging than Zephyr, because its super flat. Not usually crowded and well laid out. As soon as the snow melts I’ll be there!

Very nice park with lots to do! Includes all of the following:
*One of the top disc golf courses in the country (no fee to play)
*Two covered gazebos with barbeque pits. Both are available for rental.
*Skateboard park
*Volleyball courts (sand, 2)
*Fitness course
*Restroom, concession facility
*Basketball court
*Open meadow; great for walking or just relaxing
*Historic railroad exhibit
*Horseshoe pits (2)
*A fenced dog park, (no fee), open to the public
We mainly enjoyed the play structure. The play structure was unique in that it didn’t have stairs (probably universal design feature) which was great for DD to just walk up a ramp. Some of the big kid swings were missing and it looked like a slide was missing as well. Snow is probably hard on the play equipment.

I came to this disc golf course after going to the zephyr course and this one was such a breeze to walk through compared to zephyr. This is a good place to go to and learn how to play since it’s on flat wide open land with only a few tree obstacles in the way of the baskets. There’s a lot of holes so my group only played the last half of the holes since we only had a limited amount of time.

Bijou was the first disc golf course built in the Lake Tahoe basin, and is the course that paved the way for the myriad other courses around the lake today. Bijou was started in 1995 as a «guerrilla course» with home-​made, now infamous «blue baskets» created from 30-​gallon and 55-​gallon plastic drums. The city turned a blind eye at first, and once the course blossomed in popularity an accord was struck between the disc golfers & the city.
The course now consists of 27 holes with Innova Discatcher baskets and rubber mats for tee pads. Each hole has multiple pin-​positions ranging from rewarding for beginners to challenging for paid professionals. Bijou lacks a lot of elevation change throughout the layout, and only a few holes really have any up– or down-​hill to them.
But it more than makes up for it with incredible views of Heavenly, Mt Tallac, Freel Peak and the surrounding mountain ranges. The course is located in Bijou Community Park on Al Tahoe Boulevard — just up the street from Denny’s. Once you pull into the park drive past the skate park and start looking for parking.
The course is open year round. I’ve played it in a 70-​mph blizzard when the lifts were all on wind-​hold at the local resorts. The time to go is in April or May, when you can hit the mountain in the morning and play disc all afternoon.
If you’ve never played disc golf at a high elevation before, be advised that your plastic will be extremely over-​stable in the high mountain air. Bring discs that are beat up and flip over at sea level, they’ll be perfect at 6,200 feet.
Oh, and bring your camera. You’ll want the obligatory «putting on #13 with Freel in the background» photo for everyone in your group.
