Ohio University Golf Course

As an Ohio University today was the first time I player the course in thirty years. Many improvements have been made, still some wet areas. Greens are Marginal. Good. Value for the money and the scenery.

Nine hole course that is a medium length basic layout. Beautiful view of the river next to many holes, but doesn't come into play. Some bunkers, but not well maintained as some are rough to play out of. Fairways are a normal cut, but if you are in the first cut be ready for clover that ties up a club head easily. And if you try to play a second nine, there is no starter watching the first tee and you fall in the back of the line.

The person working behind counter admitted she new nothing about golf. I have membership and did not inform her. I was charged 48$ for 2 people and golf cart and 9 holes. Plus 5$ tee hold fee. Because I have no experience playing golf. My friend did but I was paying his way and did not want to embarrass him. I think I should not have had to pay 53$ for 2 people for 9 holes with cart. I was partially at fault because of my lack of knowledge and my laid back attitude. The course was great my friend said and he would know. Next time I’m in there I will attempt to solve the financial part. Thank you for asking.

Course could be nice but seems to have been neglected likely due to past covid distancing rules. Hopefully that will improve but student staff seemed to be disinterested, both at the counter and on the course. Greens in poor shape and traps unplayable. Ride, don’t walk. Long distances from greens to tees because of crossing Hocking River twice. With some work this could be a nice 9-holer and an asset for the university. I’ll give it another shot to see if there’s improvement.

For the price it's not worth it. I play it often just because its 5 mins from me and I can get a quick round in after work. Lose balls right out of the fairways ,greens are meh, cart paths are trash. $25 for 9 and a cart is steep for this place.

Nice little 9-hole course, perfect for after work or a quick round

Drove down from Columbus to play with my son. Although I am an Alumnus, I’ve never played the course. It’s late in the season and COVID happened, so I’m sure this is better in easier times. The fairways were rough, the tee boxes were bad, the bunkers were mud and the greens had just been aerated. We ended up getting stuck behind a five some that only had three golf bags, so slow. The girl at the counter was very nice and helpful, and the scenery was great as fall is just hitting my alma mater. I’ll probably be back, and hope for a better chance to give an honest review

Great experience on dad’s day weekend. In spite of a 70 minute frost delay where the staff was completely friendly and polite, the course was in excellent condition from tees to greens. I only play this course once or twice a year since I am from out east. I was amazed at the quality of the course conditions this late in the year. And the staff and starters were excellent. The starter actually drove up to the large groups in front of me and ask them to let me play through since I was a single. I haven’t seen this from any starter in any golf course all year. Fantastic experience. I look forward to playing here again.
