Nice course

Golfed with my children. Had a nice round. The wind made the course more challenging.

Good for public golf

Course in pretty good shape and really nice staff. However, public courses are notoriously slow, and this course is no exception. Something has got to give because most people do not have 5+ hours to play a round of golf and this is one of the sole reasons that keep many people away from the game.

Slow play

Pace of play was extremely slow. Over 5 1/2 hours to play 18. Even though the starters /rangers were driving around the course, no one seemed interested in pace of play complaints/concerns. Having two groups of 4 waiting to tee off on every hole, while a group of 4 young kids messing around and delaying everyones play the whole 18 holes is unacceptable. Multiple people in different groups complained & yet nothing was ever done. Liked the course but won’t be playing there again.

Central Ohio Favorite

I have played here a half a dozen times over the last few years and I can honestly say it’s one of my favorites in Ohio. Great layout, fast greens (which I prefer) great clubhouse and staff

We played as a twosome behind a couple of slow foursomes but still finished in 4.5 hrs on a Saturday…totally happy with the pace of play

Do yourself a favor and play here if you get the chance…don’t expect Pebble or Muirfield, it’s a great public track that you’ll enjoy
