Located just northeast of Columbus, Chapel Hill Golf Course has a central location that makes it easily accessible. Its affordable rates make it doubly appealing. The course was designed with players of all skill levels in mind with four sets of tees and some fairways that are open and others that are carved from the forests. The layout tumbles across rolling hills that provide interesting elevation changes and scenic views of the surrounding countryside. There are water hazards coming into play on seven holes. There are some notably challenging holes including the par-4 ninth, but the seventh and 11th are the golf course's signature holes. Built on the site of the former Mount Vernon Bible College, the old chapel now provides a unique clubhouse for the course.

Great time

Course is the right difficulty to provide an enjoyable challenge without being too frustrating. Course was in good shape and held up well to a big rain storm right before we teed off.

Holy Weed Control!

I've been playing Chapel for 15 years or better. 1st time playing this spring and I must say I'm really disappointed in the overall course conditions. Front nine greens were unbelievably firm while the back nine was complete opposite. Rough hasn't been mowed in at least 4 to 5 days. Way too many weeds on the course. Need to get someone who can weed eat everything! The only thing that made the round worth while was I only paid $20 to play. I love this course but there is absolutely no excuse why a number of certain maintenance practices were not being done.

Seven come 11.

Good stuff. A lot of variety in the hole types and difficulty, especially the par fours and fives. A signature hole on both the front and the back in number seven and number 11. I always make it a point to play here several times a year, especially enjoying their all day "all-inclusive" offer... A great value if you want to play 36 Plus holes in a day, including food beverage and range.

A hiden gem and the best staff

Found this course from Golfnow.com and decided to try. One of the best courses in the great Columbus area with significant elevation changes and quite a few interesting holes. Love the condition of the course even though it was in late December. I am now wondering how nice it would be in Spring or Summer. Came the 2nd time a couple of days later. I was probably the only one played that entire day and the pro had to wait for me until 4:20PM. Very nice and accommodating. I cannot appreciate more. Highly recommended.

Enjoy this course

I enjoy playing this course even though it's a bit of a drive from Columbus. Good challenge, course is in great condition and friendly staff. They allow five-somes which is unusual but it did not impact our play.

.

The course was fully booked including a small outing which did slow down the pace in the first few holes but we picked up speed by the end of our first 9 and the second nine was on pace too. The course was in great shape and the staff was as friendly as ever. Really enjoy golfing there.

Great value, well maintained

Played as a single, started at 6:45 a.m. Course is well kept and maintained. Greens are smooth and pretty fast. Course has a few blind shots and at least three short par fours on the back. Overall, has some challenging holes and is worth the drive and money.

Second time we played the course

We had played this course about ten years ago and knew Golf Digest gave it good reviews. Decided to play a second time since we were in the area.

The course was in good shape except for the cart paths, but that didn't take away from the condition of the course. I love the layout, the fairways were in very good condition as were the greens. Some of the greens were extremely challenging to putt. Loved it

What I didn't care for was that we ran into two different fivesomes. One on the first tee in plain sight of the clubhouse. These guys were terrible so my wife and I decided to skip the first hole and go to the second.

After about four holes later we came upon a second fivesome. We waited until the turn and passed them as they stopped to get something to eat. They didn't look too happy but once we got around them we didn't see them again.

Advise to the clubhouse....don't put a twosome behind a fivesome.

Hills and more hills.

First time on this course. Interesting, hilly, wooded terrain. Good greens, friendly staff. Front nine tougher than back. Quite a few blind shots and tucked pins and elevation changes made the cart's excellent GPS very useful. Hour's drive from home but worth the trip.

I was impressed

We started on the back 9 and only got to play 9 holes due to rain so my review is based solely on that side. I was impressed with the condition of the course. Greens were smooth and fast but didn't hold like I thought they should. The design is challenging and has some short par 4s but you have to think about what you're doing. You can't just stand on the tee box and bang tee shots. I really enjoyed it and look forward to going back. I might add that this is not a course for walkers. Many elevation changes and distance between tees on several holes.
