Pickaway Country Club
About
Pickaway Country Club is known for its welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff. Jack Kidwell, a local architect who designed this course and many others in Central Ohio, utilized his familiarity with the terrain but still kept each golf course distinct. Pickaway has an interesting layout that will test your shot-making abilities and strategy with narrow fairways lined with trees and small, fast greens that are difficult to read. Water hazards come into play on five holes and there are nearly 50 bunkers strategically placed throughout. There is one particularly difficult par-5 hole that requires a 250-yard drive over a meandering creek. Although the golf course offers a fair amount of challenges, they are balanced by a number of wide-open fairways that have ample space.

Enjoyable round,
We enjoyed the play at Pickaway CC….The course is making many improvements. The pace of play was alittle slow but everyone was good with it. The staff is super. We had chicken salad sandwiches and they. We’re great. I would recommend spending a day on this course.
Ok course
Was an ok course.. nothing to write home about..for 30$ it was worth it.. but I have played better in that area...
Golfer 2.0
Golfer 2.0Rough was very high hard to find balls even when they’re just off the fairway.
Great shape
It’s hard to really enjoy this one due to the stacking of players but there is a fine line because operating revenue has to be generated. It would make more sense to have starters getting off first tee and not starting players until they reach first green and a ranger on the course monitoring. This is such a great course that needs more course monitoring, one of the best conditioned courses for sure.
Possibly underrated
First time playing the course, and I came away very impressed. Some of the reviews on golf now were not favorable, and as a result my friend and I were both skeptical. I thought the course was in very good condition. It is not long but is well protected by lush rough. If you keep it in the fairway, you will have a nice round. The greens were in very good condition, although at least in my opinion, they were slow. I would definitely play it again, and would recommend it.
Love the layout.
Already talking about going back. Hopefully next time it won’t be raining.
Course is improving daily.
New Superintendent is doing a great job. I believe this is his first full season there and was at Lancaster before taking the position at PCC. He always had Lancaster in good shape and is quickly making his mark on Pickaway. Fairways were striped up nicely. Rough was mowed down and didn’t have any issues finding your ball. No dandelions anywhere so he’s been spraying his chemicals. Greens are rolling good. If you haven’t played it recently I would.
Excellent Course for the money !
Course is in the best shape I’ve seen in 5 years. Staff is friendly as always! Can’t beat it for the value.
Always worth the drive to play here
With the exception of the gravel cart paths, the traps could use a little more sand and possibly four dual tee boxes where you. Really have to pay attention to which hole you are playing; I would give 5 stars.
The weather was ideal a little on the cool side but not bad. The course was in great shape. Always a pleasure to play here…
Great day!
Shot birdies and pars, had a blast challenging enough to be hard but not to difficult to make it not fun. The people we’re friendly on the course and the staff was great
Bad Shape
This course has dropped off tremendously within the last year and a half. Tee boxes were not mowed and not level, bunkers are totally unplayable, the fairway is cut just as high as the rough on most holes. Keeping in mind I’m writing this review in early April but I’ve played other courses in the area that are in much better overall condition. Such a fun layout, and a nice bar area; but I wouldn’t play here again at full price..
Fall golf
Course was what we expected for October 30th; aerated greens, patchy fairways and tees, but only $20 for a Sunday morning round of 18. Fun little course, not too difficult but some challenging driving holes and a long par-3 to keep it interesting. Shot my average but probably lost some strokes on the sandy and aerated greens so maybe a little easier than other courses around the area.
Enjoyable!
This is a nice little course. The course is in good condition. Not a long course but well laid out. Super friendly staff. Will definitely play again when the leaves are not on the ground.
