Glenview Golf Course offers 27 holes, a driving range and a practice green. The par-36 West Course measures 3,359 yards, while the par-36 East Course plays to 3,352 yards, and the South Course comes in at 3,484 yards. This is a championship course created for the public to golf on, with fairways that undulate beautifully, dense foliage, panoramas and challenging bunkers and water features.

Should golfers choose to golf the East and South golf courses at the Glenview Golf Course in tandem, they'd be looking at 6,836 yards. Teeing off on the East Course, they'd get to travel 431 yards from the Black tees and do it in a par of 4. Things get long on by the East Course's seventh hole, a par 5 that plays to 503 yards from the Black tees and is one of four holes that lay to over 500 yards on this route.

Closing out on the Glenview Golf Course's South Course is one of these: The South Course's final hole is a par 5 that plays to 526 yards from the Black tees.

Eagle putt!

Everyone knows glenview in the Cincy area. Undebatably Best Public/City track....only issus is getting on....Spring golf in this part of the country. On the West track there is a shortish par-4 (gets a bit longer every time I tell the story)....low 300's with a down-hill slop. Trouble left, yet still begs you to go for it...
Drove the green and was left with a 15-ft eagle putt. Off course I was NOT going for it, on a sloping green, chickened out and layed up for a tap-in birdie! Made my rnd...don't remember what I shot on the other holes...who cares! Fun track.

Great Public Course

I don't know how this course doesn't get better ratings. The East is OK, but the West is above average and the South is fantastic. For less than $30 on golfnow, it is a steal. We were matched up with two great guys from Lima and had a blast. Nice staff, nice conditions, and fun. Highly recommend.

Nasty starter

We were 5 minutes late when checking in with starter. I shouldn't have peed. The starter yelled and lectured how he could not get us off because we were late. Usually on the weekends at this course, it's a little slow teeing off. Yesterday, Thursday, there was no one but the starter says he can't get us off because he had a group at 12:08. There were no other names on list. So then, Larry, the starter, yells, "well you're not going til 12:45. I said, there's no one on your list, the parking lot is empty,why 12:45. "Because you were late."

I have seen this starter go off on others and now we have decided not to place this course ever again. We have been late a couple other times over the years and have never been yelled at like this guy yesterday. Consequently I went back in and got a refund. I do not recommend this course when there are so many other options. We did go down the street and played at one of the other courses(which is a nicer course).

Greedy course

They pack the course full so the pace of play is 5+hrs. The greens are slow and the bunkers need sand.

Overbooked and Slow Play!!

Course (27 holes) seemed overbooked with tee times and a local bars yearly golf outing. Early morning pace of play, plus the outing, forced us to only play nine holes (over 2.5 hours to play nine). We had a 30 minute delay to start our round and a 45-60 minute wait to make the turn due to the pace of play and the outing. Pro shop would not issue a rain check because I booked the tee time through GolfNow.com. The last time I played Glenview, we had to play the same nine twice (East) as the South and West courses were too crowded. Frustrating course to play on the weekend.

Great condition with all the rain

This course is in great shape right now. We played a 1 hour 20 min front nine because we started at 715 but the back was incredibly slow. The staff is always great here but the pace of play is usually pretty slow because of all the slopes and the trees. They should either not let so many people on course or make the marshals actually do their job. Running this track while everything is so plush is as must

Nice course; 3 good nines, but pace of play too slow

Good combination of playability and challenge; well maintained; but having played there four or five times the pace of play was so slow that it seriously detracted from the enjoyment. I would play this course more if not for the slow pace.

Pretty city course

I really enjoyed playing Glenview. The course is a very mature course cut out through the trees. There are lots of challenging holes.
