Willow Run Golf Course
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.

Bang for the buck!
I've been playing willow run once a week for a few months and have zero complaints. I'm a beginner so the price is right and so is the distance. the course seemed to get in better shape as year went on. Staff's great too man, I'm glad I found that place
Sunday Funday
Nice local course, for a quick Sunday round; not crowded; plenty of challenge slope, well kept greens. Good for walkers too!
Good value, good shape
Played this morning and the course is well maintained. As it was the first time playing the course, our only issue was knowing where the hazards are. Enjoyed the round and walked it in less than 3 1/2 hours.
Well maintained course
Beautiful course, well laid out and obstacles make you think your way to plan shots. Errant shots can make life difficult but a fair course that tests you.
Great Value. Nice course for the money
I’ve never played 18 holes during the day for 20$ and have the course in this good of shape. Definitely coming back again!
Course was completely over booked for a Wednesday afternoon in September. Pace was miserable and this is the second time in a month it’s been that way here. I will not play here ever again, too many other options that are price equivalent, and quite frankly nicer courses.
Great value
Willow Run offers a good course at a great price. The fairway was lush and there were some challenging holes without the course being too difficult. The only major drawback was the lack of driving range. Will definitely play again!
Worth the $12 w/ cart
Soooooo slow of play....no ranger..... a few of the greens looked like a rugby match was played on them.
Cart paths are poor at best. I think they haven't ever been maintained since the course opened....my back is still sore.
Great Value
If you’re looking for a value this is a great place to come. Everyone was friendly and the course is fun to play as well. The cart paths are horrible and the greens aren’t the best but not bad either . but other than that it’s a solid place to play.
Price value is great
Not the best course but by far not the worst. Pace of play was great till I got stuck behind a twosome that wouldn’t let me pass. Course condition was great for the price of $21 for 18 holes with a cart. P.S. beer wasn’t overpriced
A Great Golf Experience
I met a couple of guys at Willow Run and we had a very enjoyable round. The course was in extraordinary shape, considering heat, COVID, staffing and everything 2020 has thrown our way. The greens were my favorite part of the course. Fairways were pretty good, too. The sand was not overgrown like other tracks. Easy to get to from anywhere in central Ohio .I highly recommend a day at Willow Run!
I have had better rounds there
When pulling in the parking lot #1 was already backed up. The pace was so slow that we did not play the back 9. It had rained so the rough was deep. I lost two balls that were inbounds just off the fairway that should have been findable. I have played here before but the conditions were degraded from previous rounds.
Nice course
Great price for a very nice course. I highly recommend
Great round of golf
Great layout and condition was good. Pace of play was good and the staff were helpful and friendly.
Good course
Course was presentable after previous nights gullywasher. Most of water was removed. Fairways and greens were Terrific but many golfers did not seem to care about fixing greens after approach. I fixed quite a few. Courses deserve that. Thanks
