Golf Club of Dublin
About
Although the climate gives away the location, the Golf Club of Dublin is a more authentic interpretation of the traditional links of its Irish namesake than most other replicas you'll find. The flat terrain, which was formerly a cornfield, was transformed into an enjoyable linksland layout covered with tall, sweeping heather and hundreds of yards of hand-stacked stone walls. The gently rolling fairways are generous and the classic, square-shaped greens are enormous and fast. In keeping with a true links golf course, there are nearly 80 steep, sod-walled bunkers waiting treacherously by the fairways and greensides to swallow up errant shots. Depending on the sun, the shadows cast over the bunkers can play tricks on your eyes, making them appear deceptively deeper or shallower. Water hazards also come into play on a few holes at the Golf Club of Dublin.

Links at its finest
Spectacular golf course has the feel of playing a course in Ireland
Great layout , fantastic condition the entire staff ate welcoming and friendly
Whenever in the Columbus area it’s a must play
Great
The practice range was awful, and had me pretty scared to the condition of the course. The course turned out to be wonderful, and the carts had GPS. Great day.
Solid track semi private atmosphere
Greens need a bit of work but overall a great track. Played tips so it definitely opens up things up a bit.
Always a joy to play
What you’re willing to pay is all relative. I think it’s a bit pricey but it’s so fun to play. You can score well but it can also punish you.
Much improved course management from the past ;)
Course was in great shape, except for a few of the bunkers. Always a fun and challenging course. The pace of play and course management has much improved over the past years :)
Great time
The course was in good shape despite some heavy rain two days before. We were not allowed to drive the carts in the fairways, and sometimes the cart was locked up if you got to close. Some fairways were still pretty saturated. The greens rolled really nicely.
I played with two family members ( who were playing their second round ever) and they LOVED the layout and course.
Stopped for burgers after 9 and they were delicious!
Nice spot a bit over priced
Course was CPO Monday so it was sloshy...nobody told us it was cpo, made for slow play. Nice track; greens 6/10 boxes 7/10 fairways 7/10. Will be back and absolutely would recommend
Nice course, odd watering schedule
Had a nice time on this course, last played it 4 years ago. Historically this course can get beat up from the numerous outings they host, but with COVID the course was in very good shape. Layout is tight on a few holes with houses nestled along the fairways with many in the line of fire. One odd thing was the course deciding to “spot water” the last 4 holes we were on, causing disruption to pace and rhythm. Why a course is watering at 3PM in 96 degree heat is beyond me...any groundskeeper will tell you this causes burn that time of day. That aside I would still come back and suggest it to others. Starter and staff were friendly. Burger was top notch at the turn!
Great course
Amazing track. Great condition. Was very crowded, and is definitely pricey. I would play here a lottttt more if it was cheaper.
Not up to Par
I was very disappointed in my experience this time playing here. Granted I had a lower twilight hour rate. However it was extremely packed with golfers. I did get to tee off early only because I joined the group in front of me which was fine since I was a single player. The real problem started on the second tee, where there were 8 people putting on the green! Yes, 8 and they all were putting for a million $. Next hole all 8 teed off. Online scorecard said where were eight minutes behind pace. By the time everybody teed off we were 15 minutes behind pace. Thank goodness a Marshall told us after the third hole it would get better- great. Remember this is twilight play. So by the time we get to the 6th hole my cart dies. I call the clubhouse and tell them. Response-sure no problem be right there with a new cart. Meanwhile we have to switch out clubs and try to rearrange so we can continue to play. 6th hole isn’t that far from clubhouse. I called, a member called, we played 6, called again on 7. Now it’s starting to get darker people behind us jump in front of us and play a par 3 hole so we have to wait again for them.
Because the people we had been waiting on hadn’t gotten any faster we were just a little slower because we were minus a cart!! So dark we were unable to play 7, 8,9. Total time to play 6 holes over 2 hours. Sorry Dublin I wouldn’t be back for quite awhile!!
4.5 stars from me
Solid course not quite 5*. If I Had to nitpick I’m looking for a bit more speed on the greens although they do run true here(GC Dublin) they r a little beat up in spots. Overall I’m happy w the experience and really don’t have any complaints.
Nice course, poor staff
The staff was great and friendly, except the starter. We booked 9 holes and asked if front or back were less busy to the guys at the cart stand. They suggested back 9. We went to start back 9, and the starter came up to us yelling, telling us that we start on the front 9, and was completely unprofessional. Then he asked us if were any good and to keep moving after he came and pulled us off the 10th tee. We all tee off, literally on our second shots (in a foursome) and tells us that we need to speed up and we’re playing too slow. Completely off putting and left a bad impression.
We get to the 9th hole, and are waiting on the group in front of us, which was no biggie as we’re having a good time and having some beers, and we let them finish through them tee off, and the same guy comes up to us and tells us that if we can’t see the group ahead of us, we’re playing behind, literally 3 mins after we were waiting on the group ahead of us.
Golf shop service was great, beer cart girls were awesome and friendly, cart guys were cool, but the guys who were operating as the starter or whatever were complete jerks and we felt rushed the entire time because of it, which parlayed into us not playing great games.
Won’t be back.
soggy soggy soggy
after a wet spring and cool temps, we had thunderstorms all night long. The course was opened, but squish, squish squish. puddles everywhere.
Springtime
Knocked the rust off a bit. Great day to be out (social distancing observed).
thanks for being open!!!!!
the course was in much better shape than last week, and allowed 90 degree cart usage on 17 of 18 holes. Weather was fantastic - who would have guessed? Paired up with some very nice folks, everyone kept their distances. Just a great day!
