Bad attitudes

Booked my round thru GN. Played here before and enjoyed it but today was a bad experience. I called in advance and asked if my girlfriend could ride along which I was told there was no problem with it. Showed up to play and went to pay for her to ride. Was told it’s usually $14 for a rider for 18 holes. I said I’ve never heard of it costing that much but was ok to pay it and understood his reasons. But he then said never mind paying this time and said to enjoy my round. As I made the turn the owner stopped me and gave me a hard time for not paying and saying his employee said I told him I didn’t have the money to do so. I told him he was wrong and that I tried to pay but was told not to worry about it this time. He argued that wasn’t what he was told. So I followed him to his employee and when he asked the employee, he confirmed that I tried to pay and he told me not to worry about it. The owner then tried to shake my hand and got mad because I refused to do so with someone who attacked me with misinformation

I will NEVER golf here again and will definitely be bad mouthing the place every chance I get

Good value

This is a good value course! The old guy at the checkout is a mean angry guy and pretty rude. Lady at the snack bar was super pleasant and sweet, and the young kids they have working there are very well mannered kids. I believe the owner looks like Jon Daly and is a pretty nice guy. Overall course is not bad and pretty easy overall, it’s been dry so course was in good shape. Carts need an upgrade but they are fast. For $40 for 18 and cart is a great value for this course

Unorganized and unfriendly

My tee time was booked on Golf Now 5 days in advance. The older man at the counter was not a happy guy. to say the least. He snapped at me and said “ they’re not supposed to be booking tee times “ referring to golf now. He had no way of checking my tee time and made me go get my phone to verify the booking . The course didn’t take credit so we had to use the ATM at the course. Luckily one of us had a debit card. Every tree on the course was surrounded by long weeds and poison ivy. I lost a few balls this way. They didn’t have enough carts for golfers or a starter from what I saw. Everyone there seemed angry and unorganized.

Hometown Course

One of the few 27 hole courses in the area, I walked the back 9 on a nice sunny morning. Course is mostly straight and hilly. Large groups of geese on multiple holes but what can you do. My only complaint is that, for a Memorial Day weekend especially, the cups hadn't been cut fresh since atleast a full day prior, my guess is two days. Some edges were quite shredded. Maybe the front 18 had been renewed, but it was very noticeable.

Fun Round

Few of my friends always come here for an early morning round. Pace of play is never an issue and staff is very friendly. Course is not very long or challenging but you are also aren’t breaking the bank. Fun course, will continue to come back.

Not worth the money

Any day spent golfing is better than work. Other than that, this place was terrible. This was my groups first time playing here and our last. We played 9 holes for an average 9hole price. For the price we payed it should have been 18 or all 27 holes. This was honestly the worst course I have ever played at in Ohio. The “fairway” was non existent, and the greens were so long, the ball would not roll. This place is budget course at a country club price.

Confidence

This is a great track to get your confidence back into your game. WIDE OPEN fairways (wont loose any balls). You can attack it with driver off every tee box, or work on your iron game the entire round. No issues with pace (27 holes), friendly staff.

If you use Golfnow for booking, be sure to screen shot your booking, or save email confirmation to show when you check-in....the course is still having issues with their computers to verify that you have paid in advance....

Caution: Loyal Oak does not have any contact with Golf Now. I paired the confidence fee but Loyal Oak said they don’t communicate with Golf Now so they did not know I was coming. They got me out but if you do a pay now and save the course won’t know you are coming and if you actually paid. Good luck
