Indian Ridge Golf Club
About
Located just a few miles south of Oxford, Indian Ridge Golf Club sprawls across rolling countryside sprinkled with walnut and cedar trees. It's the only course around for miles, making it the default favorite for local golfers but it's also popular for the affordable rates. The location provides peaceful seclusion as well as idyllic scenery. The golf course has a classic design with plenty of variety, giving it appeal for players of all skill levels. Water hazards and bunkers come into play throughout the course, often making for difficult approaches. Indian Ridge Golf Club stretches to just over 7,000 yards from the back tees. There are some holes that will please long hitters and risk-reward opportunities that will test advanced players, but the design is still player friendly enough for high handicappers.

Big Improvements!
Played 7-3-15 and since I played there 6 weeks ago they have made big improvements! Greens were really nice and rolled true. Fairways were in good shape. They still have bunkers to replace but overall the course is looking good! Service is excellent and everyone there wants you to know they appreciate your business. Give Indian Ridge another try.
Wow! It's all new!
I played here a couple times a year every year up till 2013.At that point, the course was so bad I quit going. Went back this year because I heard there was new management, and I was not disappointed. The fairways and greens were in GREAT shape. You can tell there are improvements going on all over the course. I am going to make this one of my regular stops. If you played here when the course was not being taken care of, you'll be blown away. Clubhouse is great also.
Coming Back To Its Glory...
Played this course recently with some friends and was amazed at the how far this course has come. Its evident that the new ownership group has made it a priority to get this course back to its glory. Challenging layout yet fair to all levels of golfers. The back nine is as picturesque as it gets in this region. Staff was very professional and I look forward to playing this track in the near future.
WOW!!!!
I love this course and the staff is incredible..... The new owners of this gem of a course have done an amazing job starting the process of bringing the Ridge back to its prime...definitely worth it to get back out there and play.....
New Ownership - great turnaround so far!
Played today for the first time in over a year. Course had deteriorated greatly in past two years. However, it is under new ownership and in just a short time they are making a very strong comeback. The greens were in as good a condition as I have ever seen them in all the many years the course has been there. Fairways and tee boxs were in very good shape. The only issue for now is that all 50+ bunkers are under repair. In talking with one of the owners he said that it will take this summer to get the bunkers playable. But the rest of the course was very nice and is only going to get better. In talking with the pro there, who is very friendly and professional, they know what they are doing. In time, I believe Indian Ridge will be one of the premier course to play in this area. I encourage those who have never played to start and those who left because of the past conditions return. It is a very good course to play and is only going to get better.
Fun course, lots of work being done to make it better
I played 18 as a single in just under 3 hours, and that included playing through 3 groups. Playing from the White tees, it's a short and fun course. Or you can play it longer from the tips.
As other recent reviews have said, it's run down in some areas but they're working to make it better. The bunkers that have been repaired look great (better than any other Cincy courses, outside of the county parks), and most of the greens have issues with crabgrass around the perimeter but still playable while they make repairs.
Someone said the new owners switched 15/18, and I don't think apps like GolfShot have caught up with that change yet.
I will definitely be back this year, and expect that it'll be in pristine condition by the start of next season.
Much Better
Everything is greatly improved over the last few years except the bunkers and they are working on them. Glad to see this course bounce back.
Worth a look again.
I just wanted to echo some of the recent more positive reviews of this course. Indian Ridge was always a favorite until it fell into disrepair and we stopped playing there. My buddy and I decided to play it again this year after hearing the course had new owners. Although the course still has some rough spots, a definite commitment to improve the course can be seen. Fairways are in pretty good shape. The greens were decent but need some work. There is plan to refurbish/rehabilitate the traps and that is underway. They are building a new retaining pond near 14 which presumably will help keep the course irrigated during July and August when the course tended to burn out. Also saw new tractor/mowers, new/newer golf carts, and new boxes for water coolers. Played there twice this month, both times in 3 hours or under. Indian Ridge is definitely worth playing again. I give it two stars for now but based on what I've seen I would expect the condition of the course to continue to improve.
what an improvement over last year
Played the course today with a couple co-worker's .. WOW !! .. I couldn't believe how much better the course was this year then the last couple years.. The fairways and rough were 100% better and the greens are coming back to the "the good ole days" .. The sand bunkers are still under construction, but overall the course is good.. I would (for the first time in 5 yrs) recommend this course to friends... The staff was very friendly as well...
Indian ridge
I was very impressed with what the new owners have accomplished thus far. Although the bunkers needed some work (needed drained and new sand) the course was in much better shape than what I remember it. Last year I told myself I wouldn't return to Indian ridge but I read it was under new ownership so I decided I would see if they had made any changes. The fairways were in great shape a lot better than I remember. $20 for 18 is a way better deal than Hueston woods overpriced course. I will definitely play this course more this year!
Oh and hurry up and get your liquor license, I wanted a beer! Lol
Course Improves
Played there last year and the course was awful. Heard the course was bought and reopened a couple of weeks ago. Played the course this past week and wow what a difference. Fairway, tees and greens were very nice and the rough was mowed. The customer service was very good, the guy at the counter explained they had new owners and were improving the golf course. He was correct, he also explained that the bunkers were very bad and they had fixed 5 of the 58. They are trying to fix a couple bunkers each week and by the end of the summer they will be good again. I would recommend giving these guys another chance, you won't be disappointed.
Neglected course
I have played there a few years back. The course has been neglected. Bunkers were unplayable the fairways looked like the rough and most of the green were bare. I will not play there again . If I could do a show save my golf course this would be on top of the list.
Field to play golf....
The first hole was ok... you could actually tell where the fairway started and stopped. I was actually excited to play the course, as it is fairly close to work and school (more golf time!). But the course is horrible, and not well maintained. The bunkers are full of water and weeds, no sand. The fairways were cut... but indistinguishable. The rough was cut, but full of clumps of grass and the bugs were horrible. The greens were pretty depressing. I thought about actually leaving... and I was only playing 9.
If you're looking for a place to just hit a ball... Indian Ridge is great or you could just go to field.
Complete Joke
Do Not play there!! Fairways where higher than any rough I've been in. Greens where burnt. Course looks like it hasn't been cut all year. Looks like @ one time it was a nice course but that was many many moons ago. Do not waste your time or money!! I personally can't believe that golf now would even allow this course on their site!!!!
DO NOT PLAY HERE!
The greens weren't green they were brown. The fairway was over grown and all weeds no grass. If you hit your ball in the rough you will never find it even if you just hit it off the edge of the fair way. It honestly looks like the course hasn't been touched all year they couldn't pay me to play there again. That course had so much potential but it looks like a bunch of kindergarteners are maintaining it. The only bright side is it seems like the staff knows it's horrid so they try to do everything they can to make it as pleasant as possible. If there ever is a show that does golf course rescues they should do this place first. DO NOT PLAY HERE!!
Decent Course, Nothing Spectacular
Overall, the course was not bad. The greens were a little choppy, but only in spots. The rolling hills of the landscape provided for a nice atmosphere and adequate challenge.
Terrible
Worst course I've ever played. It's a shame because the course has potential but it could not be run worse. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY
Fix the greens
Greens were extremely slow and very rough. Putts bounced and had weeds growing. The rest of the course was fantastic but the poor greens really ruined the round.
Not as it once was
I used to love this course! Love the layout and have always thought the staff was professional.
I used to play here 1 or 2 times a week.
But this course is in need of help.
Carts have gone from smooth battery powered to old noisy gas.
Tee boxes are long with crab grass.
Fairways are long and have weeds.
Bunkers are like concrete.
Greens are dead or dying. Covered with ant hills ball marks and just dirt in spots.
Practice greens are unusable.
It just needs help.
let down
Disappointing to say the least. what ever this course was its not that now!!! clover has taken over only because it hasn't been cut by the crew and left to seed if they have a grounds crew...it looks like someone is just cutting the grass oh clover When ever....if you don't live 5miles away and have nowhere else to go don't make the drive....sorry!!! but my opinion.. play elsewhere....I will never go back!
