Green Crest Golf Club
About
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.

My home course
Green Crest has been my home course for many years and I honestly believe that the condition of the course improves every year. This year is the best yet. The fairways are lush, the greens are true and fast and with new sand in the traps it makes for a great golfing experience.
Greeencrest Review for economy round
The pace of play was very slow as a result of a number of groups of average golfers who were walking the course . We like to to target 2 hour for 9 holes times and in this instance the pace was much slower and wait times at tees were extended
Money Well Spent
Green Crest Golf Course is an excellent value for money expended. I recommend this course to all who are looking for a tough challenge on a well maintained property. The friendly staff make this a great place to visit.
Great course for the money. Well maintained
Course was in great shape, just a few wet spots from the rain the night before. Fairways and greens were in great shape and the rough was challenging in a few areas. Would definitely recommend this course! Play here several times a year.
Great course for the price!
This is a great course, love the layout and the challenging holes. Just a short drive from Dayton, Ohio. The staff is always friendly, and tries to make sure your round is great. I enjoy playing the course, and you can't beat the Hotdeal price on Golfnow.
Tough
The 116 slope from the blues is deceptive, this is more like a 125. Course was in good shape, has lots of things to think about on almost every shot. Good test of golf.
Doesn't get better for the $$
This course really has improved over the last 5 years. The fairways are well kept, greens are in good conditions. Rough is pretty consistent throughout the course. This course is challenging but fun. The only danger is that many fairways are tight to each other so keep your head on a swivel if you are playing in the afternoon.
If you hit a bad shot, you'll likely find your ball but will be penalized by trees or hazards. Not many better courses for the price in the area.

Very good although on the back 9 two slap pies were all of a sudden ahead of us they were never in front nobody was in front of us . Had to skip 2 holes to avoid very slow play!
Really
Hasn't rained here in several weeks but we have had a dusting of snow , but yet it was cart path only and the threats saying that was uncalled for. As for the course, you are allowed to clear leaves a new sweep the greens to. The leaves were ridiculous and the greens unplayable. I would not recommend this course. The last two times , I played it , wasn't worth it at all.
Bonus Round In December
Greencrest may be one of the most underrated courses in the Cincinnati area. The course has some easy holes but also some challenging holes. Overall it is in very good condition. The greens are relatively slow, but are consistent. The fairways are in terrific shape for this time of year. I understand that the course stays open year round - so if you catch a nice day try to sneak in a bonus round!
Good Golf Value
This course meets all the requirements for a fun round of golf. A challenging course design well maintained and serviced by very friendly staff. Unfortunately they did not select the other players in my foursome, I did; and that was the only aspect that took away from a totally great day. Never golf with people who throw their clubs, use profane language,
or drive their carts into water hazards!
Very nice course
This is a really nice little course. Some water hazards and a few bunkers can be troublesome but we enjoyed it a lot. Golfers who want a long 7000 yard course would likely be disappointed but we loved its shorter length. We were paired up with a nice, friendly couple.

The course was in great shape,it had rained heavy the night before but the course drained well and we were off the paths.
Nice iron(s) play
This is a nice iron course with trees shaping fairways. Great $ value and close to my house.
Give them a break, it was December in Cincinnati.
Every course should be cart path only in the winter, the grass cant recover from the weight of a cart when the grass is not actively growing.
