Challenging course, bent grass fairways.

There is no sand in most, if not all, bunkers. Sadly, many golfers don't know how to repair a ballmark of replace a divot. Too bad, "cause the greens here have always been great. Need to fix the bunkers.

Completely over booked

Course was in decent shape although inkers were unplayable and hadn't been raked in some time. Starter was not very cordial and to be honest he wasn't nice at all. I was a single and was told by him that he would try to get me out as soon as he had a group with room for one. It thought that I made a specific tee time so that I could insure that? I did get paired up with another single but didn't tee off till about 3:30 which was 15 minutes past my reservation time. Every hole was backed up with atleast the foursome ahead of us and sometimes the four ahead of them. I'd say we waited on average 10-15 minutes on every shot and after 15 holes I couldn't take anymore and went home. It was almost 8:30pm and I still had 3 holes to play. Didn't see any rangers patrolling and it would have been nice to have one speeding up play. When I got to the clubhouse a kid came out and helped me with my bag and I told him how incredibly slow the pace of play was especially for a later tee time on Sunday. The kids apologizes to me and tells me how they double book a lot of tee times and that this is a standard complaint at CT. Needless to say that I was not happy with my experience and I don't think I would ever play CT again even if it was only $20.

Nice course and worth the drive. Good value.

Overall CT is well manicured with true-rolling greens, it was challenging from the yellows (3rd box), and some beautiful holes. I only went to CT because of the deal I received on golfnow, but I would return again. If 1/3 of the course wasn't wrapped around a subdivision I would give it a higher rating; plus the bunkers need sand.

Great greens

The only complaint on this course are the bunkers. Filled with rocks on most holes and other holes have way too much sand in them. Fairways, rough and greens are always in great condition

Well maintained and challenging enough for all handicaps

After two days of heavy rain the course held up nicely and was in great condition. Most bunkers were wet, some were even flooded, although those were being pumped out as we played. We were fortunate enough to avoid the flooded bunkers. Greens and fairways were soft, but in great condition considering the amount of recent rain. The soft condition just made the course play longer, but since the course was in good shape the softness did not pose any major issues. This is a fun course that poses enough of a challenge for all skill levels and yet under drier conditions, would even be more challenging should your ball bounce or roll off the fairways.

had a good time and enjoyed the course

The staff was friendly, the breakfast sandwich was excellent, and we were allowed to tee off before our tee time. We did follow a 5 some on the back nine but we moved along pretty good. The course was in good shape.

Fairways and greens were in great condition considering all the rain that occurred this week.

Nice course for the average golfer....some challenging holes while also being fairly forgiving off the tees. Need to do something about the Canada geese on the 17th (?) hole.they completely made a mess of the green as well as the approach area.
Overall, it was an enjoyable experience .

Greens are in terrific shape

If you love sand, you may have to wait, since bunkers are under repair. Greens are rolling smooth and are in great shape. More heather than previous years,

The course is is in great shape

The price was ok, I didn't enjoy the play because it was raining and a rain check would have been nice. Yardage marks that are visible can also be handy.

Good course

The greens are always very true and well maintained. Rough was trimmed so at you could find your ball if you hit slightly offline.

One of the course maintenance guys mowing the rough came up on our tee and didn't have the courtesy to turn the motor off. That was the only downside. Otherwise I would have rated excellent.

Wet on the day we played

It was cart path only when we played but that was due to the weather which no one can control. All the sand traps were unplayable with standing water but the greens were still fast and held long irons. I've played there many times and always enjoy playing there.

Best greens in central Ohio.

The traps could use attention, Sand types are different on different holes. Traps need to have sandpro run regularly instead of wet tracked up mud. Greens are fantastic, Fairways are nice. Staff is friendly. Irons only range is a drawback. Worth playing regardless because of greens.
