Jamaica Run Golf Club offers one of the most challenging layouts in the Miami Valley. The difficult greens provide most of the trouble. They are small and hard to hit and on many holes they are elevated above the fairway, making it hard to play a run-up shot. The bentgrass fairways are spacious and thankfully more forgiving, but they are bordered by thick rough. Water hazards come into play on several holes. There is even one hole that crosses the meandering creek that runs through the golf course twice. The par-5 18th provides a memorable finish, requiring a tee shot past a large pond to a fairway that sits well below the pond. Finding the right club to use and a good spot to hit are nearly impossible.

Terrible

We had a tee time at 730am. We We arrived, we were told that the grounds crew would be working on the greens so to be aware. What we were not told Was that the greens crew would not acknowledged you, we skipped the 9th hole because one of the grounds men was picking up debris off the green (thas fine) but never once acknowledged that we were on the tee box and just keep walking around the green for roughly 10 mins. (So we skipped the hole) we also skipped 2 holes because sprinkler system was on Roughly around 8:30 AM (5th hole) and then once again on the 17th hole around 1030am. 3 of the holes on the grands were filled to the top with water.

Disapointing

After reading some reviews we decided to give it a shot. Terrible conditions. Grass clippings everywhere. Course is outdated. Golf carts should be put to rest. Literally scared to drive them. Many greens un puttable..

Enjoyable course

Nice course, good layout. Greens a bit lumpy, fairways not filled in yet, but that's to be expected this time of the year. Hopefully the greens will run truer the next time I play there.

Greens in good shape, but that’s where the “good” ends. Looks like the course is struggling with money. Needs improvements to be a returning customer again.

Great fairways. Greens a little weathered but very puttable.

Course was great value for the money. Pace of play slow and no one rakes the traps.
