Love this historical gem

Great conditions for being December. Love to play here, great any time. Get good deals if you search a little online. Brought my younger sons and they enjoyed the shorter course. Can't wait for warm weather to play. Highly recommend. The young lady in the clubhouse was amazing also.

Huge improvement!

The improvements made in just one season have been incredible, especially since we haven’t had the best weather in this part of the country. Kudos to the new management company for steering this gem of a muni back in the right direction, after years of neglect and mismanagement.

History and value

The staff was great, very helpful and supportive. We enjoyed the time we were on the course. The clubhouse was nice and clean. It was fun playing this course with my son. This is an old course with lots of history. It is also awesome that it feels so secluded being right in the middle of the city. Overall, I would ould recommend this course as a great value and time.

Great little course.

This is a great track and they are doing a great job at making it better each year. It’s history makes it a cool place to play. Lots of hills, some fun short par 3’s and the staff is superb!

The experience with the staff is good and the rate of play is nice but some greens are damaged there are some ruts in the fairways that your ball will get stuck in the grass in the lead up to the greens is very I evenly trimmed.

Hi. Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. Your feedback about the course is important to us. We are working to get everything up to par. We have projects ongoing to recovery the fairways and greens. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We are going to escalate your feedback to our team so we can make improvements before your next game. We are glad to see you rated the rest of your visit, including our fantastic staff, to be great during your game. We will continue to work towards an excellent experience by using your comment for guidance. Thank you for playing Ottawa Park Golf Course. We hope to see you again soon.

Super short but super fun

Although this is a very short course it is one of the more fun courses to play in the area. Hills and trees everywhere will make you think about all shots. This could be a really nice course if the people in charge of running it would just take care of it. Bunkers are not sand but hard dried up dirt. Greens have dead spots. Grass randomly not cut all over the place. Like I said love the character of this place but they need to take a little pride in the place.

Nice track

Challenging course for how short it plays. Tight fairways and plenty of trees to hit. There are a couple driveable par 4s if you can keep it straight off the tee. Overall fun course to play.

Beautiful course!!

We have golfed this course several times. And as always it's beautiful! Take the time to think about it being built in 1899.

Short

The course is pretty short, but very enjoyable to play. Doesn't handle rain water very well so if has rained in the passed 2 days or so expect some backsplash from iron shots. Greens are a touch slow, fairways are nice, and the rough is thick. Play in the evenings to enjoy the wildlife.
