Safari Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Located adjacent to the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium, Safari Golf Club was carefully carved from mature forests. This tight course is not particularly long, but it has a varied design that appeals to a number of different tastes and skill levels. The layout features tree-lined fairways and water hazards on several holes. There are also strategically placed bunkers lurking treacherously beside the greens. The golf course starts off with a challenging par 4 that features a dramatic drop from the tee to the green. It finishes with two demanding par 4s as well. The 17th and 18th holes both feature a slew of challenges including rolling, tree-lined fairways and tricky stream crossings. Although it presents a formidable test on some holes, Safari Golf Club's hazards are straightforward with no surprises.

Fun and beautiful
My co worker and I played it for the first time. We both really enjoyed it. Everyone was friendly. We were paired up with another pair and had alot of fun. Course was in very good conditions!
Delay
When arrive and told tee-times are running 40 minutes behind , starts the day off on a bad note .
Good course for the money
Safari has a challenging course that is well maintained. Staff is very friendly and it is one of my favorite courses in the area. Looking forward to returning again soon.
This course has a nice variety of holes
Turf was in great condition and the course was well groomed. Greens where slow otherwise a nice experience
Nice average course
Good value, crowded slow play for a weekday, but overall a good day of golf
Nice course
Course was in good shape. Relatively short from the white tees, but most of the greens have slope and putted true. Lots of parallel fairways. Not recommended for walkers - lots of space between some of the holes. Would definitely play again.
Really good shape
Played 18 with a friend from Oregon and he really liked the course. The conditions of the course were very nice and the weather was even better.
Friendly staff and good pace of play
The staff were friendly from check in to tee time. The course us in great shape, nice practice range. Pace of play is a little slow. More likely players trying to find their golf balls.
