Pebble Creek Golf Course offers beauty and tests on an 18-hole championship golf course, as well as a full-service pro shop and sports bar and restaurant, making it as much of a draw for golfers as it is for diners. The ridges and valleys of the Colerain Township provide the home for the golf course's bentgrass tees, fairways and greens protected by white-sand bunkers. There are seven water hazards to test golfers who like to balance risk with reward, and course management is the name of the game for golfers with low handicaps: This golf course requires every trick - as well as every club - in the bag.

The 16th hole on the Pebble Creek Golf Course, for one example, is a 135-175-yard par-3 that will test golfers' abilities with its island green; still, this is a golf course that will accommodate all levels of golfers. Forward tees and giving drop areas from the island green and two canyon holes offer a bit of reprieve for golfers with high handicaps.

After your round of golf, check out Prechtels Pub at the Pebble Creek Golf Course for nightly fireside dining and numerous television sets to keep you up on whatever other sports you like.

Got' um

Very nice course, great layout ( back nine) we never got to see the front. I understand that you have to do work on the course but you should tell people before they book tee times!! I feel like they where being deceiving to myself & other people playing on that day!!

Short but don't be fooled

I love playing here, I put the driver away on many holes. You need to keep it straight and placed well to have a shot at par. Everyone is so friendly and the food/bar area is great. We go every fall to see the colors change and aren't disappointed. I had to take more drops than I'd like and you can out hit a number of the fairways.

Very enjoyable round of golf

First time playing Pebble Creek. It's a beautiful course. Great condition. Even for this late in the season, the fairways and greens were in very good shape. The water is beautiful on the course. I'm assuming #16 is the signature hole on the course; it is fantastic. Island green into the wind. Very difficult hole, but picturesque. The one weird thing about the course a whole is that it's very crowded. Not in a people sense, but in that use of space.

Very short course, but some difficult holes. Especially if you play from the tips.

Nice little course

I want to start by saying the course is in great shape. The greens were great, and the fairways were are well-kept. The only issue I have with this course is the layout. It is weird. The course is extremely short and it seems the designer has used many twists and turns to attempt to get challenge in the course. This is not really a problem, but the course affords you almost zero opportunity to be aggressive. It leaves you often wondering "how the heck am I going to play this hole". By no means do I expect, or enjoy, a perfectly straight course, but I sure don't want to hit 7-irons off the tee on par 4's that are 350 yards long. I did play the black tees, so that might be skewing my view slightly.

Quirky but interesting

Course is hilly and fairly short, often not conducive to hitting out with a driver. Exception: one drive requires more carry than the average golfer can deliver. It has a very generous drop zone though. Many holes involve targeting layup areas. Greens are nice, but somewhat slow. Traps are a little rough. Not a great walking course.

Great course

The course was in excellent condition as usual. My only complaint is the course is set up to accommodate water coolers. Yesterday was one of the hottest and most humid days of the year. What few coolers that were on the course, were empty.

Interesting course

Lots of twists and turns with elevation changes. Greens are fast but fair. Tree boxes can use some work, torn up. Overall a fun course for experienced golfers. Do not recommend for beginners.

Bday round

Wonderful round of golf for my friends birthday! Challanging course but lost a handful of balls in tall brush. Greens lightening fast and in great condition. Only draw back were several tee boxes were hard and dry making it difficult to set up tees. Overall very nice course and we shall return.

overall experience

Course was great . It seemed like we always had to wait about 10 min on each hole before we could tee off. The pace of play was slowed down due to multiple groups stacked on top of each other.

THE Course needs competent management.

The Rangers and Management had no idea that a group of six people were in front of me, a single.I had to bring it to there attention after over 20 minutes on the tee box.The awareness of the course was terrible.

Excellent Course

Played here for the first time after reading the reviews. Wow is all i can say. My friend and i had a great time and no two holes are similar. The clubhouse, the staff, etc were excellent. Some very challenging holes. This course is NOT about bombing it off the tee. it is ALL ABOUT ACCCURACY. There are only one or two holes i can recall where u do need to be able to hit it about 220/230 off the teebox from the tips. outside of that i used a 3-hybrid all day off the par-4s and shot an 83. Loved it and will be back again soon

Hot, Humid Clear Day

Course in excellent shape, tee boxes well grassed, fairways good, rough fair, greens hold and roll true. This is typical for this course. Sand traps a little thin and could use a better raking. This seems to be the case with most public courses. It is an area that all could do better in maintaining. Two issues on this day. First, we reserved our tee time on Golf Now and got an excellent price. Elderly person working in pro shop asked for confirmation number with a computer in front of him. Most other courses are proactive and know before player gets there who has reserved a tee time on the internet and who to expect. This person didn't. My suggestion is to have personnel who are computer savvy. I don't like geting a sermon before my round. I go to church for that. As this was a very warm humid day, having cold water on the course is expected. We found coolers that had water but not cold. Some that had no water. This is inexcusable and should be attended to daily. These two issues put a blemish on what otherwise was a good day for golf and on a course whose grounds are very well maintained.

Best shape I've seen it

Course was in the best shape I've seen it. We only got through 11 holes due to storm . .

Side note course was very dangerous to drive carts on in wet conditions due to steep slopes .
