Elks Run Golf Club

I've played here a few times and always enjoy it. This time there was a foursome in front of us that each had their own cart so their small children could ride along. While their fathers were playing the kids would run around the hole without supervision. This doesn't seem like a place where they should let people bring children if they aren't playing.

Drove over 30 minutes to get here and it was well worth it. Course is on beautiful piece of land, well maintained and great layout. Course is challenging but any level golfer will enjoy it. Facility is well maintained, carts very nice and staff is very friendly. 1 or 2 of the greens had excessive unrepaired ball marks but there was outing earlier that day.
Great course.. i will be back.

Fairways were tightly mowed and greens were somewhat fast and smooth (est 10 on stemp). Staff was great. Played in less than 4 hrs. They need to have a program for golfers to fix pitch marks and divots. Good course layout.

I play at Elks Run regularly and always love it. The layout is excellent and there are some challenging holes, but also some birdie opportunities. The grounds crew are keeping the course in good condition. I also make it my habit to fix my ball marks on the green as well as any others I find. the greens are true and moderately fast, which I like.

I love this course, but they really could use more yardage markers, great job on the green , pin markers. If you do not know the yardage from the fairway, or off the tee it makes it harder to enjoy and not second guess yourself.

Great layout in great shape. Not for the inexperienced golfer.

After getting a great Hot Deal tee time from Golf Now, made the 90 mi. trip to Elks Run. Second time playing there. Although I have not played well either time, I really like this course. A great test for the average golfer. Very good condition, friendly staff, well run. Will return .

I enjoyed the experience and am looking for a tee time this weekend.

Great course with good mix of terrain, challenges etc. Fairways in excellent condition, tee boxes decent (a few marked up but none bone dry or dirt), greens pretty good condition and good challenge. Fun, diverse course to play.

The Course was in good shape and the service was excellent from the staff.

Pace of play was perfect...3 hours for four of us. Course was in excellent shape. Greens were in very nice shape...could have been a little faster.

Great course. Greens were a little beat up but ran true. Some tough holes. Fairways were great. Beautiful views.

This is by far one of the best layouts in the Cincinnati area and also a great value. First time I played I played Elks Run after hearing so much about it. Will be back many times.

I don't know who owns this course but they have a serious problem!
In 35yrs of golfing I never ran into someone playing a stereo on the course. When we said something to workers they know who he is and their response was "he plays here a lot". You could hear the music from one hole to another.
It's really a shame because it is a beautiful course, except we repaired on average 8 ball marks per green.

This course is fantastic. The course was in BEAUTIFUL shape, and the staff was fantastic. This is now a part of my rotation!

This was a great track. The front nine was more open than the back, the latter meandering through trees most of the time with a lovely creek that was seen on most holes. Good test of skills based on tees played. Unlike most newer courses, this one isn't lined with homes, in fact, very little civilization can be seen from the course at all. We'll be back.

Tee boxes and fairways were in excellent condition. Rough was not penalizing at all but the heather a little farther off the fairway is a lost ball. The greens were fast and rolled very nicely. The only thing bad was the number of ball marks on the greens. Which is a shame because these greens would be perfect otherwise. FIX YOUR BALL MARKS!!!

Overall an enjoyable round. The pace of play was dreadful. Course was in decent shape. Would play again, but certainly not during the same time slot. The pace of play is enough to keep me away from going during peak times.

Elks Run has one of the best layouts of any course in the city. The only question that I repeatedly hear about the course is what condition it is in. The course was in fantastic shape. There were almost no burnt-out spots and the grass and bunkers were in great shape.

Elks Run is a challenging, but fun course. Grounds were in great shape, as usual! Pace was good - didn't wait at all.
