Signature hole #6 par 3 Photo submitted by Tsmellars on 06/16/2013
Nice condition for fall golf
The course was still recovering from aerification but the greens were still playable. The putts rolled true and were receptive. The fairways were still well kept. An enjoyable day late in the season.
fantastic greens just too large.
This course is over priced as most coursses are today. We played at a Golfnow online reduced fee. Greens are superb but only 4 holes offer a shot makers challenge. fairways and greens are extremely large.
A well designed layout, with fast greens,even after aeration
This course is a delight to play. The greens were very fast, although they were recently "punched". On a few short putts, the ball bounced off line.
There are five sets of tees, so the golfer has a real choice of where to play from. Several of the par threes were very short from the blue tees. Other holes were reasonable lengths from all tee boxes.
Pace of play was good, less than 3 hours on a Monday. In total, the course was a good one, and was one that wouldn't get boring if played frequently.
good course,requires accuarte shot making into greens
I played the course in the middle of October, Greens had be aerated but in good shape. Course made you hit it straight. Big green so you had to be accurate, enjoyed very much, will play again. Dave
Dissapointed - No notice of greens maintenance!!!!
Greens were punched and amazing amounts of sand on greens made round less than enjoyable!!!! Usually the manager or Pro will advise prior to play to assure playability. I think every golfer should know when this type of maintenance occurrs so the can determine whether or not they want to pay to play these conditions.
Beautiful Golf Course
Beautiful golf course and some of the best conditions in town. We played through green aeration, but the putts still rolled true and pretty fast. Probably the only complaint might be the fairway bunkers which need some softening. Very nice layout with several different tees for every skill level.
The course setup is challenging and fun. Enjoyed every hole.
Played the course just after they had aerated the greens, and the greens still rolled well. Each hole will make you think, instead of stepping up and grabbing the driver every time. Great course.
Friendly staff
The staff was great. Even for the $13 I paid for a cart and 18 holes, the staff allowed my wife, who does not play, to ride free of charge. some courses charge because of the low pricing. I will play there again because of their customer based attitude.
Very nice course beautiful layout
Very nice course to play they had just plugged the greens so they were a little sandy but still in great shape. I'll return!
Great Course and Incredible Greens
I'm hesitant to write a review of my actual experiences for fear that next time I'm in Columbus it will be too busy to play but I need to be fair and accurate. This is a beautiful track.
I played this course last week during the President's Cup. They advertise the fastest greens in the area and they're not kidding. We played it on two different days both after heavy rains and the course was well drained and the greens were still very quick. Not overly fast, but I suspect that based on what I saw, they can get them like lightening if they want to.
I will definitely play again
Very nice
From tee to green the course was in great shape. Im not from the area (thank god)(GO PENN STATE!!), so I cant really compare it to others nearby. If Im in the area again I would definitely come back.
Good course for the money
I have played this course a half dozen times this year. It was not in as good of shape as in prevoious visits.The greens were super fast making it almost impossible to stop the ball on down hill putts and they were full of shoe cleat marks which I have not seen in the past. Many sand traps were in need of attention, ie not raked or stoney. Still a very good course.
Great Time!
Course was in good shape. We arrived early and were allowed to go out early. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Thanks.
Course was in great shape. Greens held but also putted at a quick pace.
I enjoyed our round as usual at CT. My only concern was the pace of play on the back nine. We played the front nine in 1 hour 55 minutes but it took 2 hours 50 minutes to play the back. No one on the back nine checking pace of play.
Best public course greens in area, play pace terrible!
Love this course, fastest public greens in central Ohio. The staff is great and helpful, but it was hard to find them last Sunday afternoon for both the pro shop and snack area. We had a foursome in front of our threesome that was 2 holes behind by # 5. They finally let us play through on 10 and we were 2 holes in front of them by13. Where's the ranger? It could have been a 6+ hour round w/o the play through. We appreciate Sunday afternoon issues, but a ranger would have been helpful. These weren't new golfers, simply oblivious and lacking manners. They even made a comment to us about the space before the next group when they let us pass.
NICE GREENS AND DIVERSE HOLE LAYOUTS
I enjoy this course every time i come, The course i well laid out and each hole is so different that you never get used to it. Carts always in good shape and clean and has many tee box selections for every skill level. You must play here at least once its one of my favorite courses in ohio.
Pace of play was excellent. Greens were in terrific shape, fast and the balled rolled true.
Cumberland Trail is a great course. I would recommend this course to all of my friends and any golfer going to central Ohio and looking for a good course nearby to play.
Great value.
Not as nice as it once was but still worth a visit.
Overall conditions were good with two exceptions. None of the pins had been changed from the previous day, a HUGE disappointment. I worked in course maint. for almost a decade and cut a thousand cups myself, this is a task that should be expected EVERY DAY without fail. Conditions within a six foot circumference of the hole were atrocious. Many bunkers had tons and tons of rocks, ranging in size from pea gravel to goose-killers. I did notice however that some bunkers had recently had the sand replaced, so I applaud the effort to correct this issue. I know these things aren't cheap and given the state of the golf business at this point you can only do what you can do within your budget constraints. The greens still roll very true and are a highlight of Cumberland Trail, making the lack of decent putting surfaces near the hole only more aggravating. Not enough to keep me away though, I'll hope this is isolated and I'll be back.
Loved this course!
Fairways and greens are in terrific shape. Sand traps need attention but otherwise if you are in central Ohio this is a must play.
Beautiful golf course
Beautiful gold course. The course is always in excellent condition and well maintained. The staff is friendly and price is fair. Easy access off 71. One of the most consistent golf courses in the Columbus area. This is a course that you will add to your "regular play" list once you play it.
