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.

Good course just wish there was at least a way to buy somthing to drink.

Pretty good course for value but I wasent thrilled about not being able to purchase anything to drink. I thought there would at least be a vending machine or a water fountain being 90+ degrees out but went into club house and asked if there was a way to buy any drinks. Nota.

Very wet when we played

For the all the rain that the area received the 2 days prior the course was in good shape. The greens were rolling pretty well with all the rain. I would recommend this place for anyone for the price.

Staff is so rude

Played the course my whole life even high school golf. Went to book a tee time and wanted my 6year daughter to play with us and the guy said “are you sh….. me” I’ll never play here again. Not a good place to take you family

Not too bad

5he course was in good shape. Pace realy slowed down on the back 9. Only real complaint was the carts were old and beat up, along with the cart path. Keep carts in the grass, and it plays great. Awesome value for a Sunday morning.
