I am looking to play a round of golf the weekend after memorial day in Cincinnati. Anybody have any suggestions?

$50 or less with a cart. I don't need to play the best, just looking for a nice course to play while I have some downtime.

THanks

In my bag:

some golf clubs

a few golf balls

a bag of tee's some already broken the rest soon to be

a snickers wrapper (if you have seen me play, you would know you are not going anywhere for a while)

and an empty bottle of water

Blueash Golf course. Tight and nice. 30 greens fee. I walk
Vineyard golf course, tight, 34 greens fee.
Elks run 59 with a cart. Also have twilight for less. This is the one I would play.

I play the first two often and they are well maintained and challenging. Elks run is a pretty cool tough course.

Shaker Run is high but very nice.

Legendary run is nice. Great fairways, tees, greens are a little bumpy. Cut short and because of play seem to be not as true as the first two.

Thanks for the suggestions. I think the three courses we were considering were

1. Kings Island-"The Grizzly" 2. Hickory Woods 3. Sharron Woods I believe we are staying in the Loveland area. How do the courses you suggested compare to the courses I have listed? Would you recommend to play or stay away from any of these three? I am checking with the people that are hosting us to confirm it's Loveland, and if so, does that change your suggestion? again, thanks for the advice.

Try Cedar Trace. Shaggy around the edges with greens that are hard to putt.
About 35 miles east of Cincy.

Second vote for the Vineyard, very challenging, but very nice and priced good to. When I was younger I played Winton Woods a few times and then it was nice, same park district as the Vineyard so it should be good also

Thank you everybody for the suggestions. I am pretty sure we are probably going to end up playing Sharon Woods. It sounds like a nice course and is close to where we are staying (Loveland)

Just got back from my weekend in Cincy and its a very nice city. We ended up playing Sharon Woods. For $40 with a cart (we decided to ride after a night of drinking and a 6:47AM tee time) I shot a 99 with alot of problems around the green. Its a great course and very much target golf. On several holes I was just off the edge of the fairway and found myself with nasty up/down hill lies. I enjoyed the course, and will be playing it again on my next visit.

    • Day 27 - 2026-01-16 Played 18 with some of the usual "too many voices" going on when I'm working on swing stuff. Fun to get out in great bay area winter weather.
    • I know one recent college grad who's trying the same thing.  This guy was a Division III All-American, went on to play one year at Division I LSU, and is not working hard.  He won the Gulf States Open, a pro event, and made it to the second stage of the Korn Ferry Tour School late in the fall.  And didn't make the cut to get to the final stage.  I won't talk about swing or play stuff, but I believe there are a couple of things that are essential.  Obviously, talent, and drive, or work ethic.   I can't tell you how to do it, but you HAVE to get through it.  Golf is going to be your life, and it takes lots of work. Two more things that are really critical.  You'll need the facility to be able to practice.  My young friend stayed in Baton Rouge, as a past player on the team he can still use the LSU practice facilities.  And money.  Its unlikely you'll be able to work a full-time job and practice the way you will need to.  You'll probably need backing, from a parent, from a consortium of friends or club members., something to support you. Good luck, its not an easy path, but anything is possible.  Another young man from our area, Mike Brennan, just won for the first time on the "big" PGA Tour.    
    • No one in the world is as smart as Phil thinks he is.
    • Get more comfortable with being uncomfortable. If you don’t like practicing then give up now. You don’t have the passion to become a pro. Unless that mentality changes you won’t do well under stressful situations.    Call the PGA Tour and ask. They probably have resources available.
