About
Brown's Run Country Club in Middletown offers a championship layout that stretches to just over 6,830 yards. The team of William and Brian Gordon, brothers who have designed more than 85 golf courses all over the U.S., designed Brown's Run in 1958. It has a classic layout that is gentle enough for beginners, but it is an enjoyable round no matter what skill level. There are a few strategically placed sand traps throughout the golf course, which make up for the absence of water. The design is pretty straightforward although there are a few slight doglegs to watch out for. In addition to the challenging but playable design, the course boasts some of the finest fairways and greens in the area. Brown's Run also offers other amenities including an Olympic-size pool and four lighted tennis courts.

Solid course
Upon arriving staff joked with me about this course being hard as ****. Upon leaving he checked up on what I thought about it after. It was nice of him to remember. I like environments like this.
Long dog legs and fast greens will do that. But it was a good hard. A good challenge. Was teaching someone and no one had a problem playing through so pace was great. Would definetly recommend
Like the renovations!
My husband and have always enjoyed playing this course. Like the new improvements to the proshop/dinner/bar area and the new back patio. We like the new signage too. Some suggestions would be: 1) They should have sand on the carts to repair divots on greens and fairways. 2) They really need to update the ladies restroom that's upstairs (plus it should be downstairs like the men's). 3) not sure I like the location of checking in at the front entrance, unloading everything there, then parking. I like how other courses have you get the cart first and go to your car to load up.
I do not know if they still have the bar in the main dining area, but we loved going there during happy hour to drink and eat at the bar. We will definitely continue to play here every few weeks.
Great day of Golf
Extremely friendly staff that went out of their way to make it a great round.
Great Staff
I forget what her name is, but she was the club worker who took care of us around 1:30, she was very polite and sweet!

Definitely one of the best courses in the Cincinnati area .From tee to green the best conditioned course I have played . If it was closer to my home I would have a membership .Only suggestion upgrade carts with course GPS screens ..plus cart paths need some work . Great choice of beers and drinks in the bar .
Great shape!
We got a hot deal and it was worth every penny. The conditions were top notch. We have played a number of other courses around here and none compare.
The pro shop has been completely remodeled and is very nice.
Nice layout
Course in good condition. A little slow play on back nine on a sunday afternoon but otherwise very enjoyable.
Course was horribly overbooked.
2 1/2 hours to play just the first 9 holes. Every tee box was backed up with multiple parties. Only ended up playing 16 holes out a of frustration. Course is nice and clubhouse was new but definitely need to work on pace of play particularly at $60 a round.
Hidden gem!
It was a bit of a drive to New Vienna from Cincy. Everyone at the course was super kind and very friendly. Everything was clean.
Course was in amazing condition. The greens are FAST and true, with extremely challenging undulations. Fairways were fair and in great conditions. The rough was perfect in my opinion. Maybe 3.5”-4” tall and thick. Very much a risk/reward course. The first four holes can make or break your round.
Pace of play was on the slow side. It took 5.5 hours to complete our round. This was the worst part of our day on the course. Another down side was that there was only one porta-john on site. That doesn’t bode well for the ladies playing.
We plan on playing again later in the season to get our revenge on the course.
Too pricey for walkers
Nice layout with good conditions. Traps need more sand. Some holes need tree pruning to bring back original design intent of course. Very walkable course but unfortunately non-member walkers are charged a cart fee even though they want to walk. We paid $60 to walk 18 today. Senior rates also not in affect on Fridays. Dynamic pricing supposed to be in affect but we paid regular rate today even though we were only group on course this morning due to temperatures in 40’s and wet conditions. Too many other nice courses in area you can walk for $25-$30 less.
Pro Shop Closed for Remodel -- Pay Inside the Clubhouse/Restaurant
