This course has many challenging fairways.

From the back tees it was a lot of fun. The water does come into play if you didn't know how it runs. The Par 3's are all different, with narrow fairway, or up hill green with down hill views. This is one of the best lay out I have played in Ohio.

Hello, thank you for reviewing the course. We apologize for the delay of play during your round. This is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. With an uncharacteristically full day, we work hard to accommodate everyone who visits our course and allow our guest the chance to complete their rounds. With that in mind, we are working to best control pace and allow everyone to finish in a reasonable amount of time. We will continue to look for ways to improve. Thank you for playing Oak Shadows. We hope to see you again soon.

A favorite course!

Oak Shadows is a really great course, with no significant downsides. It’s both fun and challenging, and scenic as well. I play about eight different courses in southeastern Ohio, and there’s none I like better.

My favorite course

The most scenic course I've ever played. In fantastic shape with just the right amount of water, sand, trees and hills. Disappointed to hear they might close after this year.
