Ultimate
Obviously, the main theme of Joe's besides having a great time, is playing ultimate. The entire property is centered around Joe's field, which he leveled out of a huge hill, creating an awesome atmosphere for an ultimate game - surrounded by the Ozark hills. This truly is the best place to play and watch ultimate in the Midwest.
Disc Golf
Joe's offers a 14-hole organic disc golf course. The baskets are made from branches woven around trees, and the course is very well laid out. In 2011, he added a full 18-hole course with modern baskets on the other side of the property, which is among the most challenging courses in the area.
The Creek
This beautiful clear stream runs through Joe's property and is usually packed with wildlife, including fish, crawfish, snakes, birds, and Spike's
kids. The water level fluctuates, but no matter what there is no better way to cool off after a game of ultimate than soakin' in your favorite swimming hole.
Outdoor Kitchen
Jumpin Joe's features breakfast and dinner cooked and served from his famous outdoor kitchen, and no one ever walks away unsatisfied.
Camping
There are plenty of good campsites at Joe's. You can plop down right near the garden, tuck yourself behind the far side of the field, or camp downcreek. Each spot offers something, and there is always room for everyone.
