River/Maple at Fowler's Mill Golf Course

this was one of the best courses in OHIO and has been completely mismanaged. The bunkers are not playable (see pic), there are no ball washers and fairways are patchy. Play the metroparks courses at a fraction on the price.. Also, when I checked in they claimed that my rate did not include a cart!!!! backed down quickly. do not waste your time.

Some great holes. Like#4. Course in good condition.

Great track, great greens, pace of play was good. Recommend.

Enjoyed the last tee time of the day at Fowler's Mill. Greens are in great shape, fairways seem to be weathered due to a lot of rain followed by dry conditions. The mature trees make lining the fairways make this course a pleasure to play.

Half the grass in the fairways are missing. For almost $100 to play here, I expect much better fairway conditions. It’s gotten really bad with dead grass areas all over the place. It wasn’t bad like this more toward beginning of season.

Also don’t play here if it’s been raining recently, course gets overlogged fast. Faster than any other course I play at a lot.

Despite an amazing course layout, I cannot recommend anyone paying close to $100 to play this course in the condition that it is in. Buyer beware, this is not $100 worthy right now. You will be disappointed. Bunkers were also not properly maintained when I played there on a Sunday morning. You think they would at least try to maintain them, I understand the course was water logged when I was there but dead fairways and no signs of an attempt to make bunkers look decent was big buzz kill for the price. Was embarrassed I made my stingy buddy spend the extra to play here. He was very unimpressed as well.

Every time I play this course there is some issue with the pro shop staff. They are slow, rude, unhelpful, and genuinely disinterested in the experience of the customers. It’s almost like they are irritated that you would dare come to play their course. Love the course layout and condition is generally decent. I will avoid this course in the future because of the staff.

Highlight for me is when they made our group pay for a pre-paid round then offered us a rain check instead of a refund due to system limitations. The receipt they printed had the wrong year (prior year due to system error). One week later they REFUSED to honor the rain check because it had the wrong year on the receipt. This is just one example of how unreasonable the staff can be.

The course is fun but tough. You can get in trouble quickly. Greens are fast but readable. I have a good time every time I play here but I also feel like I have been in a dogfight.
