About
Delaware Golf Club sprawls across rolling countryside that lends an idyllic and secluded setting. Donald Ross designed the original nine holes in 1922 and they were later joined by a second nine designed by Michael Hurzdan in 1998. The layout meanders through wooded valleys and ravines. The rolling fairways are fairly wide but they are lined with mature trees and bunkers heavily guard the small, undulating greens. There are also water hazards that come into play on a number of holes. Delaware Golf Club's second hole is notably challenging, it is arguably the toughest hole on the front nine. This par-4 requires not only accuracy in order to avoid the ravine on the left but also distance to carry the lake and remain in the angled fairway. Golfers will be faced with one of the most difficult putts on the golf course if their approach finds the wrong side of the green.

Excellent.. Good conditions even after the rain. Most greens very good. Couple with bare spots. Well maintained
This course is very challenging at times🏌️♂️
We have played few times here and always had a great time!!Can not wait to play again!!
Tough rough early in the year
Delaware was in great shape, greens rolled well, etc. Especially for mid April. The only complaint was the roughs were extremely high and tough. I am sure that is a early season issue with the weather we have had and will be taken care of moving forward.
Great, tough course
Very good day at Delaware Golf club. For mid April, the course was in very good shape, including the manicured bunkers throughout the course. The only real negative was the pace of play due to a slow 4some 2 groups in front of us. We skipped hole #10 at the turn to get by them, and we hoped to play #10 at the end of our day, but it was too busy to squeeze in there. Overall, very good course, and it is a tough track.
Best public course in Columbus
I was met by Chris Foster in the pro shop, great manners and positive attitude. Said he gives lessons so I’ll definitely be taking him up on that! All around great course and staff will definitely be back.

Started with cloudy day, some rain on first nine, but finish with clear day & some sunshine. Enjoyed the course, pace of play and course conditions.
Tees boxes and greens were beat up to the point where I wouldn’t come back here
Tees boxes and greens were beat up to the point where I wouldn’t come back here. Used to be one of my favorite Columbus courses and I wouldn’t play here again even if it were free.
Greens need help!
The greens are beat up and need some work. Burned out spots. I have played this course multiple times over the past 3 years and this is the worst I have seen the greens.
Disappointed
For the price point the course was in TERRIBLE shape..not worth the money…Additionally, I had a change in my group and call the golf course to see if they could accommodate me and no one had the decency to call me back..I had to drive to the golf course to speak with some..after standing around for 20 minutes before someone finally came to the front desk..should’ve known then what I was in for…Very disappointing because this golf course is right in my backyard…
Dollar for dollar, worst course I've been to.
Played 45 courses this year so far and this is by far the worst of them all and probably one of the more expensive, which makes it all even harder to bear. All of the amenities make you think that you're going to be in for a really fun experience, the staff was friendly, the aqua range was a neat feature but charging $70+ for this course in the shape it's in is about $40 too much. I won't even talk about anything but the greens because the rest of the course was in nominal shape for the time of year. However, the greens were the worst greens I've quite literally ever seen, unrepaired ball marks, dry and rotting previously cut cups, fungus all over the greens, they are horrible. Until I hear of sale of the course, firing of a superintendent or something else, I will never spend my money to golf here due to very poor maintenance and upkeep of their course.
Very Disappointed
Most of the greens/tee boxes were in terrible condition..I’d expect better for the price point which is why we booked the tee time when we did.. This is a treat for me to play this course because of the price point and I think I’ll be heading back for the remainder of the year…
