Salt Fork State Park Golf Course

The day we played this course it had rained several days prior and the day we had a tee time. Got a good price on golfnow and the rain had actually stopped a few hours before our tee time. The skies were grey and looked threatening so the course had a cart path only policy for that day. We only had a group of 8 or so guys start in front of us but they were nice enough to let me and my wife play through so that we were not on their heels the whole round. Once we got going it was UNBELIEVEABLE!! Not a flat spot on this course.If you like elevation you will love this course!! My wife loved the elevated tees but hated the long walks UP the fairways due to the cart path only stipulation..turned out it was a good amount of steps according to her fitbit. The course was fair and was a bit challenging (hard to find a flat spot on any fairway)especially playing it for the first time. Greens were quick and rolled true and was a treat to play...drove 4 hours from Michigan and I will say it rivals some of the nice courses northern Michigan has to offer(less the dated facilities). Sand traps could use a little love(noticeable stones and small gravel..rough was deep but not overly excessive) and the club house facilities were also a bit long in the tooth. But since it is a State of ohio facility and state budgets these days it is not hard to understand.Hope to play here again in the not to distant future

The views were spectacular. Fairly narrow fairways with large elevation changes and many doglegs.
The greens were in great shape and fast. As with most courses these days, the sand traps had not been raked lately and the sand was hard. Well worth the ninety mile drive drive each way. We ate at a wonderful mom and pop restaurant in Cambridge on the way home. GREAT DAY.

No flat holes, no flat lies, but a nice layout and very pretty scenery. Fun to play at least once or twice a year and a great value with the GolfNow Hot Buy. The greens were pretty fast for mid-October with less grass on the greens - downhill putts were a severe challenge. Saw at least a half-dozen deer and other wildlife.

This is a great course if you know where your ball is going. Very tight fairways and the greens are very tricky. I do plan on going back ..... Always in great shape...

I was amazed how this course was kept up from tee to green tee boxes greens and fairways are all in great shape. This is a very beautiful course with many great views I would recommend this course to anyone. This course will let you know how good of a golfer you really are

Course is in great shape. A lot of elevation changes make this course a challenge.

Tough course Greens were fast undulating and sloped. The up and down was challenging Definitely a different kind of challenge

I loved this course!!! We have had alot of rain so it was cart path only which is usually fine except for the hills..lol
I played during the week so I played it in just under 3 hours. There are alot of blind spots and up its very hilly. I Like it though. Greens were perfect and fast. Just a little tricky!!! Have Fun!!!!!

This is a wonderful, challenging course. Course is very well laid out and very simple to understand where the fairways head. Fairways are very hilly, so if you don't like the long slog uphill this might not be the course for you. Greens and fairways are in great condition. Short rough was so thick that it hides the ball.

I've played this course hundreds of times. First time playing using Golf Now. Paid $10, normal is $36. This is a beautiful course, just hard. There are very few easy shots and very few straight holes. Lots of blind shots. Ball placement is very key here. Lots of hills and uphill/downhill/sidehill lies. The course itself is always in good shape. Greens are very tough. Bunkers are never good though. The lodge is also a very nice place.

This course is too long for seniors and women. Given the extreme elevation and very difficult greens, the course needs to be shortened.
The driving range is a joke, and was not maintained.
There was no starter and no ranger, so the pace of play was about 5 1/2 hours.
Several holes need longer flag sticks so the flag can be seen from the fairway.
The food at the lodge was very good.

Tough course due to the hilly lies. Greens were in great shape.. tough but great shape.

A challenging course with lots of doglegs. Very hilly and you seem to always be hitting from a slope, but this just adds to the challenge. Greens and fairways are excellent. Greens are not too fast and not to slow. The course is well kept and is rarely too busy. You may shoot 5 over what your normal score is but it’s still a great course. Fun to play!

Course was looking pretty decent for the amount of rain we recently received. Bunkers need work, but still waiting for more April showers that would likely wash out anything you could do for them at this point. Played 18 holes w/ cart for $13.49 on golfnow rate, and finished in about 2 hrs and 45 min. while not hurrying in the slightest! Had a good day!

Extremely difficult. Dramatic elevation changes.
The greens were excellent. The bunkers were in need of sand and rake. NOT a good place to take a new player.

This is a great course with fast undulating greens. Some of the fairways are tight and several holes have carries off the tee that require knowing relatively exact yardages. When playing this course for the first time don't let a high score discourage you!

Really nice corse. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a very challenging corse

The course was in amazing condition! First time I had played the course so it was difficult to pick the correct lines off the tee. Greens were very smooth and rolled true, not super fast but not slow.

Salt Fork is an excellent state park course. Immaculate conditions both fairways and greens. The course plays far longer than the card calls for, as most holes have elevated tees, and then a further elevated green. Virtually all holes have forced carries, with large trees on both sides. An erratic driver would create a very high score.

I don't believe anyone would want to walk this course, due to the elevation. This is a very nice course, if you can get a golfnow hot deal

I'd heard of the park. Not the course. I was surprised. Its not as good as it could be but has some fun holes.

Tees ok
Fairways have potential
Greens potential

If it had more money it could be special.
