Olde Dutch Mill Golf Course

I think most reviews of the course are pretty accurate. Youll find burned out fairways, places where water collected and killed the grass. Some tee boxes will be manicured, others look like regular grass. Some greens will be cut and rolled, others will be slow.

This could be a great course! It requires some effort and $$$.

However, the pro shop staff was awful. The woman working made us wait to check in while she talked to bar patrons. We had to ask to check in. When checking in, she couldnt find out reservation. I said it was booked through GolfNow. Still no... So she goes to put us in the system, asks how many are playing and how we're paying. I said we were booked for 2pm, 2 golfers, pre-paid. "Well I dont see that, youll have to show me". OK, let me pull out my phone and pull up the reservation, no problem. Her response was for 9? I said, no the booking is 18. She replied, thats the price for 2 people and 18 holes?! As if I was lying to her... She basically questioned out integrity the moment we walked in. She was rude, unfriendly, just terrible for customer service. I would NOT recommend simply because of this experience. It essentially ruined out first 5 holes until we shook it off.

First time playing 18 holes here and my overall assessment would be “meh”. I think the course has a-lot of potential if improvements are made. It has a lot of character with a small river, bridges, elevated tee boxes, tree lined fairways, & a driving range. Not a bad course, just needs work. I’ve played many courses within the area (50 mile radius) and would rate Old Dutch Mill as “average” or “slightly below average”. On a scale of 1-10 i would give this course a 4.5 - 5.0. I will give the course another play in the future and see if my opinion changes.

PROS:

• course layout is nice w/ tree lined fairways & water hazards.

• challenging greens

• affordable cost

• friendly staff

• driving range

CONS:

• dried out fairways & greens

• gravel cart path which was loud & extremely bumpy with potholes throughout

• small clubhouse

• no gps on carts

• small parking lot

• tee boxes covered in unrepaired & dried out divots, not to mention littered with broken tees

The best course around at least one of them. Ohio area .

Played in between their morning and evening leagues.

Very friendly staff, pro shop accommodated me immediately. They care about customers!

Spring conditions after a lot of rain recently. Course was green and forgiving, and some of the greens were very fast.

Overall, an extremely enjoyable round. Many challenging holes, and I appreciated those shorter ones too, as a break.

Cart paths were very bumpy as were some of the grass areas. Many greens are mounded so be careful with the edges, and some greens had a lot of break in them. Nice variety for any golfer.

Thank you so much for a great time! I’ll be back.

Course needs a lot of TLC. Good place to go alone and work on your game.

Some of my friends would be fine here but not the more serious golfers who want better than average conditions. Staff is very friendly. Good course for local 9 hole leagues.

12/1/24 - love this course being open for play when the temp wasn’t even above 30. Real feel was 27 degrees. Got a super good deal on golf now and played 18. Course was in good condition for winter. Awesome sause
