Aston Oaks Golf Club is perched atop rolling hills that overlook the Ohio River Valley. The Jack Nicklaus Design Group created the course, which sits on the former land of President William Henry Harrison. Although his presidency was short lived, traces of his legacy in Ohio can be seen throughout the golf course. Each hole was carefully carved from stands of mature white oak, hickory, and other native hardwoods. The course is tight and demanding with fast greens and plenty of elevation changes. The abundance of trees really characterizes the course. Between the 10th tee and the 11th green, there is a giant Buckeye tree that is the largest in the state. With all of the trees lining the fairways there was hardly a need to add bunkers, but there are some incorporated along the greensides that help to define some holes.

Rough fairways

This is the worst fairways in Cincinnati. Couldn’t believe what used to be a nice course went so far downhill.

Nice course love the layout!

Got to the first tee, no starter. Then right as we about to tee off a large group comes up. Says they are making the turn in a tournament let us go in front of them, after being not so polite they were very intoxicated!

For the first 4-5 holes everyone was backed up no where to go but each hole they had to complain to us with their music blasting being obnoxious ruined the whole day for us!

No rangers saw the cart girl on the first hole never again

Really just disappointed used to be well managed!

Course conditions were ok but not like it has been in the past

Perfect weather
Used cart

Cart path only?

I love playing Aston Oaks but was surprised to find that only 2 of the 18 holes with off the cart path. There are several holes that do stay wet due to the many changes in elevation on this course but there were several holes that were fine but still had to stay on the cart path. I understand it was early in the season and the course was using precaution. Still, even with mostly cart path only......still finished our round in about 3.5 hours

Favorite course

I don’t get to play this course as often as I’d like but this is my favorite course in this area. I love the layout and difficulty level. Definitely will continue playing here as much as I can.

Fantastic Course

This is a gem of a course. The layout is fantastic. Many elevation changes, but does pose too much of a challenge. There is a great hole with a perfect view of the river. It was wet and cold when I played and the green speeds were still quick. They do a great job managing this course and it always looks in perfect condition.
