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.

Lots of small greens. Nice layout. Front is easier than back. Friendly staff.

Fun and challenging
A bit pricey. But great conditions and the course is fun and challenging
I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone
First off, my review may be different from other experiences because my tee time was late in the day (6 pm) and I was told there was a tournament that took place before us. However, the divots and overall care for the course was completely disregarded. The tee boxes were absolutely destroyed. Because the driving range is right in the center between the first hole and the 5th hole, there were yellow practice balls EVERYWHERE on the course. The 7th hole was an absolute nightmare due to terrible tee box conditions and overall course conditions. Rough was poorly maintained and the sand traps were in pretty bad shape. The 3rd hole was genuinely fun to play as well the 8th but by the time we got to the 8th, I wasn’t even having fun anymore. I’ll admit I’m not that good at golf but this course was unplayable for me and my partner. I have never walked off during a round of golf until now. Lastly, overbooking. We sat at the 5th tee box with 3 other groups waiting to play the hole for 30 minutes. Don’t book so many tee times on a tournament day. I really wanted to give this course a better review because I’ve heard it used to be a great course, but I can’t. It’s just too poorly cared for.

Playable sand traps!
Course is always in great shape. Definitely worth the price. Only complaint was the number of ball marks left.

Course is falling apart
This course has one of my favorite layouts in Central Ohio. Sadly, the course was in terrible shape. The bunkers hadn’t been touched all year. The tee boxes looked like they hadn’t been moved in weeks. It was nearly impossible to find a clean lie or stance on a tee box. The greens were very chewed up.

Losing it?
Played a late afternoon round for $31. Which was ok, but more $$$ than that I would not. It’s been a bit since my last round here. No particular reason just other options. The general course conditions are not what I recall. Tee boxes need moved around more to allow sod to heal. Bunkers seem neglected. Some fairways and greens have weed infiltration. Some greens have badly damaged/loss of turf. Landscaping overrun with weeds. Kinda sad. Not what I recall at all.

We appreciate your feedback as we work to make any necessary improvements. Thank you for choosing to golf with us, and we look forward to seeing you again soon at Bent Tree Golf Club.
Awesome course
This course was great - I had never played it. It’s expensive but definitely one of the nicest I’ve played around Columbus!
Hello, u881550334. Thank you for visiting us at Bent Tree Golf Club. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Would not play again!
Tee boxes are in horrible condition, very long grass and dead grass was abundant. Fairways were basically the same as tee boxes. Bunkers had limited if any playable sand and did not appear to have been raked for months.(note this review was a few days after 5-8 inches of rain the week before but no rain the 3 days before i played) Greens are also in bad shape with many large areas on edges of the green where it was merely a pile of sand and you have to remark your ball location to even make a putt. I was absolutely disappointed and cant imagine how this nice layout of a course could get to this point. Something is very wrong with the course management to get to this point. Do not waste your time or money. I would pay $25 and still be disappointed. I paid $49. Wont be back.
