About
Willow Run Golf Course was designed by a ubiquitous name in central Ohio, Jack Kidwell. The local designer played a role in creating many of the state's courses but he infused a different character into each. Willow Run has an interesting layout that will test your shot making skills as well as your course management capabilities. The greens are bentgrass and the fairways are accented with Ohio bluegrass. Correct placement off the tees is the key to doing well, especially on the front nine. Plenty of water comes into play throughout the golf course as well as several strategically placed bunkers. Willow Run's back nine boasts one of the most challenging par 4s in Ohio, the 13th. The green on this tricky hole is fronted by a meandering creek.

A fair course for a fair price !
The staff is very friendly as is the price which keeps us going back. Not a huge fan of the layout so would rate that part of it as average. Conditions were good as was the pace of play. I would recommend!
Willow Run Fun
The golf was pretty good. Greens were a bit rough due to recent aeration. Cart paths need a lot of work.
Solid course for the price. Carts are old and nothing has been done to the club house in a couple decades but they keep up with course maintenance well. Layout can be challenging with some rolling hills and mature trees. It’s one of my go-to’s for a quick round, just be careful if it rains recently, it’s somewhat lowland and can stay soggy
Decent value
Decent value for the price. The cart path is terrible.
Take Pride In Yourselves
I’m not by any means an expert, I worked at a private club for many years. When your cart paths have potholes the size and scale of the roads in Ohio, you need to think about the safety of your guests. Your tee boxes were burnt out and you had standing water in almost every fairway and bunker which only tells me your drainage system is absolutely shot. You should give serious consideration to closing down for the rest of the season and make your course presentable again. Golf is a beautiful sport to be enjoyed by many. Luckily, I had phenomenal company with me, my cousin who is on the Tour. We will not be back as we did not enjoy the course in it’s entirety. Many other courses that are better kept will have our business.
Great value
Course was a bit soft from the rain. Overall great value. Pace was perfect and the greens played true. Many scoring opportunities, but the cart path needs work for sure.
