About
Elks Run Golf Club in Batavia was designed by Greg Norman. It sprawls across 163 lush and secluded acres where golfers will be hard-pressed to find a home anywhere close to the course. Norman carefully utilized the natural terrain, incorporating the meandering creek on several holes and also adding a few holes that venture up the side of a hill. Thanks to the dramatic elevation changes, there are some tees where your ball seems to stay in the air forever. The first nine is more open with a traditional links-style layout that then leads to the more densely wooded back nine. In addition to the trees and other natural hazards, there is also an unusually thick first cut of rough as well as tall stands of native grasses.

Golfer Reviews
Fun course
Fun course! Some nice open holes and a few with tough approach shots. Greens were fairly quick for how much it rained last couple of days. Busy day so it was slow, but overall a great course and good experience.

Elks Run for a quick 9 this afternoon, April 21, 2020
Fairways are in really good shape. Greens are still healing from being punched the other week so they were still bumpy but they’ll be coming out of their winter doldrums soon.
Always enjoy getting to the tee box on number 9 looking out over the complex and then ripping one down the right side of the fairway clearing the bunkers as it turns back to the center. A fun hole to grip it and rip it.

Elks Run Review for round played April 16, 2020
The course conditions for still coming out of winter hibernation, was pretty good. The greens were still healing from being plugged, earlier. So, the greens were bumpy and prett hard - but like I said, understanding it’s still only the middle of April.
For respecting Covid-19, pins had foam noodles at the bottom going into cup so that when you bounced off the noodle, you made the putt. No rakes for traps and none of the tee boxes had markers, either. No problem during this accepted protocol in order to play.
Fairways were in nice shape and at the higher elevated tee boxes, always nice views to be had. Enjoyed the day and will certainly be back.

Elks Run Review
We played Elks Run today, sunday 3-15-20, with a starting temperature of 34 and gusty 15-20 mph winds. The course was also very wet withstanding water.
Even with the above listed conditions, the course was in good shape. It did appear as if the greens had not been cut yet this year.. There were signs of aeration which had been performed some time previous.
Overall we had a pleasant golf experience and enjoyed the course. I would play this course again.
Thanks for leaving us a review, Donald. We look forward to seeing you again soon!

Great Course and Great Customer Service
This is a beautiful course that is challenging but fair. I found the conditions to be excellent for this late in the season. I had a few issues with my booking and they were handled above my expectations.

Not so Bad
Was kind of worried after seeing some of the bad recent reviews. Played here earlier this year and was in excellent shape and is still not bad for late in the year. Tee boxes are a little chewed up and greens would be better if lazy golfers would repair their ball marks. Only complaint is the pace of play, they have GPS on the cart that tell you are behind pace the ranges should be able to use this to speed up those slower groups
Hi RJ, thanks for leaving us a review. We're glad to hear you enjoyed your time at Elks Run, and we hope you'll come see us again soon!
poor course conditions
tees are awful - grrens some OK, some bad - sand trap behind a par 3 had so much vegetation growing in it it should be filled in. They've just let the place go. weather has certainly had an effect, but I've played many other courses under the same weather conditions. $39 sounded like a good rate till we played it. should be a warning at checkin that conditions are far from ideal
We appreciate you leaving us a review. We're working hard to keep the course in top condition, and we hope you'll come give us another chance in the near future.
