Bent Tree Golf Club
About
The lush, rolling terrain occupied by Bent Tree Golf Club was sculpted into one of the most popular championship golf courses in central Ohio. Dennis Griffiths, the course's architect, seamlessly blended the design with the natural features of the landscape. The abundant natural water hazards come into play on half the holes and Griffiths strategically incorporated several well placed bunkers. The terrain's gentle undulations provide some interesting slope in the greens that place a priority on accuracy. Bent Tree Golf Club's par-4 eighth hole is especially demanding. It may be short at only 334 yards but it is surrounded by bunkers on all sides. It is followed by another tricky par 4 that requires both distance and accuracy in order to navigate the tree-lined fairway uphill to an undulating green faced with bunkers to the front and back.

Tainted by weather
Great track but Ohio weather has torn it up. I will be back late summer to give it a fair shake.
Good couse
Course it was good to have been clean and maintenance. In addition, staff is also good, I was able to comfortably play.
Garbage for the price
I paid 28 dollars for "unlimited golf". 3.5 hours and 9 holes later I'm thinking they oversold what they can actually handle on their course. I checked with the staff and they had no solution, the people that manage this course just have no idea what they're doing but are happy to charge a premium price.
The course itself is average at best. Sand traps were not maintained, trampled in fact with no raking afterwards. The fairway does not drain well at all after a rain, you may as well be hitting off a wet sponge in the fairway. Divots galore. Thistle weed everywhere. Beer is 20 dollars for a 6 pack (a 400% price hike).
This place is a ripoff. Why golf here and pay so much with so many better, less expensive courses in the area? I will not return.
Great Golf Course
The greens are excellent!!!
Played in late June but the rain caught us on the front 9 so we had to quit. I'll be back!!!
Average, enjoyable course
This would have been a much better rating had the pace of play not been such an issue. As with so many courses these days, course management is SO lacking, along with the etiquette expectations. There was a foursome that was EXTREMELY slow...way beyond most of my slow experiences. They would allow any of the singles or doubles to play through and there wasn't players in front of them for 3 holes!!
Otherwise, the greens and tee boxes were in good shape. Fairways were decent. Lots of nice shade and the course is attractive.
Fairways were rough
Played there on a week day afternoon. Pace of play was a little slow with an 18 hole time of just over 4 hours. For a week day afternoon that was troublesome. The fairways were in rough shape on many holes. Greens and bunkers were great
Fun when playing at a discount
Course conditions were great, greens were a little inconsistent but overall good time for all.
In my opinion the regular price is a little too high but at a golf now discount the price is just right.
Worth the $$$!
The course was in good shape. The greens were in excellent shape. Played early and was done in under three hours. Always enjoy the variety of Bent Tree.
Nice layout
Bent Tree was a great play for rhe money. Well conditioned, great layout and very playable.
Challenging Course
Course bunkers were in poor shape because of recent rains. No fault of staff. I was visiting area and will play again. Good value. Staff very nice. Pace of play slow. Foursome ahead of us had 2 holes open after we played 11. Some elavation cahnges
Stay out of the sand
Every hole offers a reward and risk, Select your club carefully! Championship caliber course. Best sand traps I ever seen for very well maintained.
Great course
The condition of the course was excellent, the play was fast and the staff friendly and helpful. Carts were clean and newer. Bunkers were well manicured and full of sand. We had a very enjoyable round of golf.
Great Condition
The course was in great condition for this time of year!
This course is one of my favorites.
We have made the longish drive since the course opened. It has always met and even exceeded our expectations.
Thanksgiving Weekend in OHIO
Very difficult to use the "rate the course" offerings considering we're in North-Central OHIO the last weekend of November! The course was in EXCELLENT condition relative to that! It's a very good course, well worth playing anytime they're open.
Nice nov day
Bent tree has always been one my fav courses. Try to play it 3or4 times a yr. course was in great shape. Leafs not a prob and fairways and greens in great shape. Enjoyed my day.
Still in Good Shape
For this late in the year, Bent Tree is still in good shape. Greens were well maintained and pretty fast. Bunkers still had sand and the fairways were in good shape. We got a great deal on Golf Now ($15). It was a steal at that price.
course in good shape except for few fairways.
Always like this course. Fun to play with many t boxes. Greens in good shape. Pace good. Would play again.
nice course
would recommend the course, well kept. friendly staff
