About
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.

Horrible
Had to wait 25 minutes past our tee time just to get a cart. The cart wouldn't stay running. Course was in such bad condition, people were losing balls in the fairway. The greens were so bad , they had bald spots and ant hills all over. For a place to charge 108.00 for 2 people and a cart to be this bad is robbery. Never coming back here and definitely not ever going to recommend this place to anyone...
Are they closing
Started on the back, it was over grown and could not see a fairway. Greens were in need of a lot of love. Front was the same. It seems like they may be closing. Did not see many workers that day. Normal golf course operations take a lot of personnel, I saw maybe two. I used to love the course. Hoping they can turn things around.
Fairways were long on the back nine,greens were short,smooth and fast.Had to hit high approach shots or ball would run off the green
Staff and course
It is a complete 180 from years past. Got rid of the grumpy old man working there and the course well it is getting better still a little work to go but improving tr
emendously
The course conditions were below par
Multiple greens had areas under repair. Green on hole five completely closed down. Flag placed in middle to end of fairway. Fairways and greens not mowed to proper height. Golf carts in rough shape. Driving range closed. Overall a farm track. Price should be 15.00 with cart.
Greens need help
Greens need some TLC but other than that, course is nice and away from city so it was peaceful and quiet. I will play there again!
Staff was outstanding
Course was in poor shape
Winter tees
Temp greens
Major upgrade needed
Course needs a bit of TLC
Overall in poor condition particularly the greens ,some of them close at this time of the year.Some fairways are pugged..
Course poor condition
This course is in very poor condition and disarray. Greens are terrible. There was one hole that had a miniature green believe it was either whole six or seven so I would not recommend this course management/ownership needs to get some good professional landscaping in there to fix this.
Funday Friday
Beautiful day with good players,course was ok considering the recent draught.
Not worth the money
This course and equipment is not well taken care of. Limited staffing and the feeling like not much money is put back into the course make it feel like it’s not worth the money to play here.
Easy to get a tee time
I just started coming back to this course after not playing it for 15 years. While it’s easy to get a tee time here and the value is decent (and the pace of play), the tee boxes need some love and several greens have dead grass issues in a few spots. The greens tend to be mostly slow. The fairways are in decent shape and the layout offers an interesting course to play.
Surprises and poor conditions
Upon arriving we find that the front 9 is closed. I was given the option to play just the back 9, play it twice, or not play at all. We're teeing off on our second hole (#11) and we're then notified that we had less than an hour before a high school match would start. So another surprise and bump in our round. Eventually, they now said to play the front 9 so we gave it a shot.
They had just aerated the greens and left piles on sand on each green. Tee boxes on the entire course were empty dirt patches and tall crabgrass. I've always liked this course for the layout and open layout to bring newer golfers to, but this was a disappointing round for sure.
It is Okay
The course conditions especially the greens - leave a lot to be desired. The golf cart conditions are also at odds. However, the price is reasonable and the people are friendly.
