Rating 63.3

Avon Fields Golf Course is one of the older golf courses in Cincinnati, where it sits on picturesque land that rolls along fairways lined with trees - and it's easily accessible to downtown. The golf course provides tests and good times for golfers at all levels, with elevated and diminutive greens for those who like to play short golf, as well as those who need more practice at it (for those who need more practice in general, the Jimmy Woods Learning Center is onsite).

Avon Fields Golf Course provides 18 holes of par-67 golf over 5,081 yards. Tee off on a par 4 that plays to 369 yards. The course is short compared with megacourses being built elsewhere nowadays: About a third of the holes come in at under 200 yards, even from the Blue tees, while only the fourth hole, the lone par-5 hole, stretches to over 400 yards from the Blue tees.

As the Avon Fields Golf Course is a municipal golf course, expect affordable green fees, and those who can swing a round of golf during the workweek can expect them to be even lower.

Relaxed sunday

You could tell it was the lords day. Everyone was slacking off. No food and beverage person, no pace of play kept at all. Not really surprising just worth mentioning

Triple booking

Always nice to start your round with a 30 minute wait on the tee box & 6 groups behind you watching you tee off. This place has the worst management of any course in the area. Pace of play is an absolute joke. Course was in very average condition. Would be a fun course to play if you didn’t have to wait 15 minutes before each shot on every hole. Maybe learn how to manage tee times so the people who visit your course can actually enjoy themselves.

Great When Course is in Better Shape

This is a nice, moderately difficult course with a good layout. However, it is not a true regulation course (par 66 with no par 5 holes). The staff is very pleasant and there are frequently good deals. Right now, the fairways are not in great shape, but that will hopefully improve through the spring.

Public course that is pretty good

This is a fun cheap course. Don’t expect fancy or any amenities, but a nice layout and good time.

Trees man.

The trees were everywhere. The ground team dropped one in the fairway as we pulled up to the tee box and then left. On 17 the tree fell onto the green. Nothing like hitting it into the woods 7 feet from the pin.

Hilly course with great greens

Played during the off season and had the course to myself. After I finished my round, I was shocked others were not playing. I am a huge fan of Bill Langford courses and this does not disappoint. It has Langfords large built up greens and couple that with a very hilly site and you get a fun quirky course.

The course is short, but I counted at least 6 holes with abandoned back tees. Do not let the yardage deter you, there is still plenty of course to enjoy!

Unfriendly Staff

I play this course often because of the convenience. However, it is a bit overpriced for the quality of the course.

Every time I have played, I was greeted by unfriendly and unwelcoming management. This course needs new management.

The worst staff I've ever had. Unfriendly, didn't care about customers or the money we spend to keep the course open and running. I'll never go back
