Sycamore Springs Golf Course

About
Sycamore Springs Golf Course has managed to stay one of Arlington's best-kept secrets since it first opened as a nine-hole course in 1958. The second nine wasn’t added until 1994. It's often considered an underrated course, but locals in the know will tell you it's one of the most challenging rounds you'll find in the area. The golf course has a traditional design that measures 6,681 yards. It would be a mistake to underestimate Sycamore Springs since there are a number of tricky doglegs that require some deft maneuvering and greens that play fast and true. The golf course is especially tough on windy days. There are a few ponds that come into play and a creek meanders through the course as well. Sycamore Springs G.C. also has a driving range, two putting greens, and a chipping green for golfers to use.

Beautiful course and great staff
It was beautiful course, with nice golf carts and pleasant staff. All at great value
Disappointed
Had a 9 am tee time with friends and teed off slightly late - there was no starter. When we made the turn we were advised we needed to “pick it up a bunch” after playing 9 holes in 2 hours on a weekend while waiting often for the group in front of us. We were advised we had to be done by 1245 for a 1pm outing that was not mentioned at check in. Our group opted to play a scramble on the back 9 and skipped 3 holes to meet this deadline imposed on us. It was disappointing to see the course schedule groups every 8 minutes off from 8-9 knowing they needed the course for a 1pm outing. Overall the course was in fine shape and greens were good. Just disappointed to schedule tee times expecting under 4 hour pace on a Sunday am, especially with no starter or rangers on the course to monitor pace of play.
5 star value course
Is it a real 5 star course? For the $25 18 hole golf with a cart.. you bet it is. Even has a range!
Great course with some challenging features
Very nice public course for the area. Pace of play is usually fairly good, even on a busier day. Usually do a good job of keeping up on the course conditions. Greens have a nice speed to them to give you the feel of a country club type green. For the price, one of the better values for the surrounding area.
Good course
First time playing this course and it was awesome. Only played the front 9 but definitely the best course I've played in Ohio so far. The fairways and rough were fair and well mowed. The greens were fast but that was expected and the overall layout was good from tee to green. Definitely recommend.
Need faster pace.
Love course but very slow pace. We 've run into slow play almost everytime we are there. Plus nobody wants to let you play thru.41/2 - 5 hour rounds is to long for 3 players or 4 players. If you are moving at a decent pace, 3 1/2 to 4 hours is a good 18 hole round.
Great golf course
Friendly staff, golf course was in great condition for as much rain as we have received in the last week. Would recommend this course to anybody that likes to pay a nice golf course.
Aerating greens
Would have been nice to know ahead of time greens where going to be aerated.
Beautiful golf course and perfect condition for this time of year
Beautiful golf course. Staff was very friendly and cooperative. The golf course was in perfect condition for this time of the year. We recommended to anybody that likes to play a nice course.
Great staff
The people at sycamore springs were so nice. For this time of year the course was in beautiful shape. I would recommend anyone traveling in this area to stop here and play a round of golf. Professional staff and course.
