Length 6271 yards

Rating 69.5

Green Crest Golf Club is a player-friendly course located in Middletown. The course was designed in 1972, offering a traditional layout with wide, forgiving fairways and short roughs. The golf course is on the shorter side at 6,271 yards from the back tees, which is indicative of the time it was designed. Strategically placed bunkers lurk along the medium-sized greens on six holes and there are water hazards coming into play on eight holes, but the challenges are straightforward and don't present too much trouble for high handicappers. It might not be the golf course you're looking for if you want a truly formidable test, but it's a good option if you're looking for a quick and affordable round. Green Crest Golf Club is ideal for beginners and even gentle enough for juniors.

Horrible pace of play!!

Course Starter needs to do a better job of pairing groups up and making sure that there is even time between each group so that the pace of play is consistent!! Will NEVER play there again. This is a constant problem with this course.

Horrible pace of play!!

We have played this course several times over the last couple of years, especially since we live close, but will never play again!! The course was in better condition than it has been in years which was great, but they overbooked and did not pair people up so that the pace of play was horrible. Our tee time was at 9:08 and the starter had us start at 9:00 and there were only 2 of us and we were told that we would be paired up with 2 others, which was fine with us, but he had us go ahead and start. The 2 people in front of us weren’t very good which slowed everything up and caused us to wait on every hole. We ended up asking the 2 people behind us to join us since they would end up waiting on us. They were walk ons and were told to tee off at 9:05. So basically the starter was giving groups 3 minutes between each group!!!! I know that the courses are trying to capitalize on the fact that people want to be outside and golf, but this is ridiculous. We didn’t even play 18 holes, 9 was all we could put up with!!

Not worth it.

Had a tee time at 8:52 got rushed to the start by 8:42 just to be bottle necked the whole time waiting for 10-15 min to tee off. Ranger was on the course but didn't do anything. Fair ways and greens were in rough shape. Slot better courses around for the money...

I’ d rate it a good place to play.

This is a good place to play. Friendly staff. Maintenance staff were out working and mowing. Which was good to see. The layout is good. It was a bit overpriced. 3 of 5 stars

Overpriced, undermaintained

I have played here for about 4 years. The quality of the course upkeep has steadily dropped while the price has risen. If anyone is paying more than $30 to play 18 with a cart here you are being swindled. Course is poorly maintained. Drainage is bad. Balls are lost if you stray off the poorly maintained fairways. There are far better courses with often lower prices in the area. I will not be coming back.

Pretty solid

Greens and fairways were in great shape. Rough was pretty thick and if you aren’t careful you could lose a ball in it and not find it. Teed off early in the morning and was done in just over 2 hours.

Beautiful Morning of golf

This was my first time playing this course. It was well worth the drive from my home. I had an 8:12 tee time and I was able to finish 18 by 10:30. The only criticism of the course was that some of the rough areas were very patchy where there were clumps of grass and bald spots. The fairways, greens, tee boxes were in great shape. I did not use any of the other amenities.

Slow Pace Poorly Maintained

Green Crest is a below average course that seems to thrive on below average golfers seeking a “hot deal” or gathering for a drunken afternoon that could possibly be better spent at the local sports bar. Driving into the parking lot I recalled to my guests that the course is flat with little challenge, in okay shape, and notoriously slow, and it dawned on me that I had remembered this all too late and would have to settle my expectations to try to enjoy myself. Green Crest’s location is the best thing it has going for it, so you will pay around $25 for convenience to the west Chester area, then pay $20 more for the actual golf. My feed back to the staff and management is this... it is March and golf season has started in Cincinnati, so, you have had 5 months to pick up dead branches and blow leaves from the fall but have completely neglected this while every course near you has not. 8 minute tee times packed to the gills with golf now hackers may be the only thing keeping your business open, but I might suggest to view your customers as guests instead of torture subjects. This course is woefully in need of a ranger and better maintenance standards.. Paying a starter and having players tee off 20 minutes late is the most redundant waste of resources I can possibly imagine. I will not be back as long as I can help it and I sincerely regret my decision to play here today.
