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.

Course is well set up

Fairway and greens are well taken care of. The cart path is broken and cracked. Website says they open at 6 but no one showed until 647am. The attendant was rude.

Great stuff

Staff was nice, price was great, and course is a perfect mix of challenging/forgiving. Great layout to switch it up from your usual course.

Value continues to be there.

Willow Run is a favorite in my rotation of courses I play regularly. For the price, I feel like it continues to provide a very good value in more of a laid back atmosphere. Staff are great and course conditions are generally above average for the price point. Pace of play can become a problem at times, but both the staff and the people that typically play this course (including myself) are more than willing to help pick up the pace or move to the side. Willow Run continues to be a great value and I will continue to come play for a fun outing with friends.
