Walden ponds

This course was GREAT, it is wonderful for beginners since the fairways are nice and wide, veterans get some practice with driving for distance, plenty of par 4s and 5s over 400 yds, played 18 holes for $29 and I would love to play here again!

Nice course with good variety

This is a very nice course with a nice variety of holes. There is enough water to make it interesting but not too much. The multiple sets of tees makes it playable for everyone. There are houses along many fairways so probably not the best for a beginner. The course is well-maintained.

Pleasant Day of Golf

For a course that is integrated in a neighborhood it is laid out extremely well. Not near as tight as say a Blue Ash. A beautiful patch of land to play on. The greens were in great shape as were the fairways and tee boxes. I like playing a links style course every once and a while and this is my favorite.

Nice course

Walden Ponds Golf Club is a really nice course for the value. Play was slow but that was to be expected. I thought the course was in excellent condition. The course is not too long or too short, par 3s are challenging and most par 5s are reachable in 2 shots if you are trying to score low. Par 4s are fair some short, some longer, but definitely easy to post a low score if you keep the ball in the fairway. I would reccommend this course to anyone I think its worth a visit. The facilities were not that great and if this place has a bar I couldn't find it. Overall a fun course. I'd go back.

Has potential but needs work

This course probably has the most potential in the area but still cannot obtain it. Everything is just ok but for the money and location it should be in top shape. Elks is a much better choice for the money and superb conditions

My favorite course

Best overall course in the area. Great grass, treated bunkers and lots of water to top it off. Many other courses a lot closer but this one is worth the drive.

Not a good time.

We tried to play on the best day in about the last 2 weeks. Corse was still water logged(not the courses fault), still snow in the bunkers. Pace of play was very slow due to the course conditions(path only). Again not the courses fault..... We just wanted to play golf on a nice day. Overall, it was still a good day on the golf course.. I would love to play this course in the dead of summer when it is hard and dry.. I think it could be got..
I don't know what the course record is, but I'd sure like to give it a shot under ideal conditions.

Great Scenery

Just an awesome course..played in December and the course was under construction on a couple of holes but that didn't affect the game. I can't wait to play this in the summer. Beautiful landscapes and homes along the course. Each hole is named for a particular reason.

Moist Sunday Round

Due to previous rain, it was cart path only. Since I am 60+ with bad knees I dreaded this scenario, but due to the fact that the course is not extremely hilly I managed to get around without problems. It is a good, well cared for course that even though I seldom play it well,is in my second tier of favorite Cincy/Dayton courses.
