Fairways and greens were fantastic. The sand traps need some love though. Great time!

Great layout but City owned

A great and challenging short course. The design is fantastic. The city owns the course and does the bare minimum. Tees are fine. Fairway are good with some spots of bare area. The rough is spotty at best. The greens are inconsistent and have damaged areas. The bunkers are slimier unplayable.

It is too bad that this course does not get the resources it needs. It has always been a favorite to play but conditions make you so sad that this gem is under resourced.

Great Course - No Food

First time playing Ottawa Park course was wonderful greens are great cool old school layout. It a bit short but still offers enough of a challenge.

The clubhouse let a lot to be desired. I couldn't but golf balls because they didn't have any stock of anything. The concession stand wasn't able to even serve a hot dog and ran out of miller lite. Girl behind the counter was nice but said that they have been out of hot dogs for 'a while'.

...I'm shocked at how the clubhouse could be so bare of things to buy.

Terrible pace of play

I went as a single and they allowed a 8 person group go together that wasn't letting anyone through along with the group of 4 that were behind them. I skipped 3 holes to get back on track and ahead of them and then ran into another group of 3 older gentlemen that wouldn't let me pass even when I was waiting on them.

Ottawa Park Golf Course

The conditions were a little wet buy surprisingly, none of the holes were washed out. I really appreciate the rough being trimmed so I could find my ball if it wasn't in the fairway.

Good short course

I like to play Ottawa Here and there, because even if you aren’t a long distance hitter, you still have plenty of opportunities to hit greens in regulation. (Even on a wayward shot)

The only downside with my latest experience is that if you don’t play the course somewhat regularly, you’re kind of wondering which way the next tee box is. It’s pretty terribly marked and there are some spots where the cart path goes 3 different ways. Lol Even a few cheap laminated staked signs would be a solid addition in my opinion.
