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.

Course not in good shape
A lot of the fairways were patching or missing grass. Tee boxes not cut. I try to avoid the bunkers but mostly dirt.
I’m used to seeing the course in much better condition.
This golf course has it all !!!!!
I haven’t golfed at Bent Tree in many years and I have to say, I am impressed. Tim in the pro shop has excellent customer service skills and communication. The driving range was in great shape. I enjoy warming up on actual grass. The starter was friendly and courteous, the course is pretty great for as much it has rained in recent months, but my absolute favorite was the outdoor bar and grill (19th hole) in the back of the building near 9 & 18th hole.
It’s the staff.
Amazing course in great condition. Pace of play was excellent, and we were following a men’s league! They were fast! Still, it’s the staff that make this place one of my favorites. Everyone is so nice, which unfortunately seems to be a rarity these days. I highly recommend this course, just don’t take my tee time.
Good course but several issues need fixed
Played Bent Tree on Saturday, the course was in good shape, not great. First of all, the people in the clubhouse and the cart girl (Casey) were great, very friendly.
Regarding the golf course, the yardage is very fair for middle tees. Please cut the grass on the fairways and greens. There was little reward when landing in the fairway since the grass is not trimmed too short. The greens had to be the slowest greens I've played in a couple years. Everybody's putts were coming up short. Also, several greenside bunkers had standing water in them and need some TLC. Some of the fairways had 'burn' areas where there was no grass also. In its current condition, this course is not worth fees > $45.
The greens on this course aren't receptive to any balls rolling onto the green. The majority of the greens are fully protected by rough so your approach shot must come in from the fly.
I doubt I'll be back to this course, too many other course options in the area that are in better condition.
Good value, great layout
Love coming here. Sucks it rained us out after 13 holes lol
Bent Tree is Back!
I played this course last Fall, and it was in terrible shape. The fairways were burned out, the tees had not been mowed, and it was a shell of its former self. They have obviously put a bunch of work into it, because it's in excellent shape now! I'm concerned about the rumors I'm hearing about it being plowed under and converted to lots for new houses (one rumor is that they might sell part of the property and keep 9 holes), and I sure hope that doesn't happen, because this is a great course!
Been better
Good track, just in tough shape right now. Tee boxes are beat up and just overall, it doesn’t look like it’s in great health.
Greens were nice though!
Course is great zero food service
Course conditions were great , disappointing to not have beverages available at the turn as they normally do .
Loved the course
Played on an cold rainy Monday morning. Course was great. Will definitely be back when the weather is nicer to get a full feel for the course!
