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.

Good conditions for March but terribly slow

Conditions overall about as good as could be for beginning of March. Pace of play was awful though- 5 hours and change. Could see 4 groups at one point on the back, one on the green, one waiting to hit approach, one waiting to hit 2d, one on the tee, and we drove up…to wait. Clearly needed someone from the course to move that first group. Pace got slower each hole and we waited on every tee box. Will be back in the summer because it is a nice course and I’d like to see it in season, but hope for a reasonable pace of play!

Hello, u000006195569. Thank you for reviewing the course. We apologize for the delay of play during your round. This is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. With that in mind, we are working to best control pace and allow everyone to finish in a reasonable amount of time. We will continue to look for ways to improve. Thank you for playing Aston Oaks Golf Club. We hope to see you again soon.

Golfing in February!

The course is nice but it is February and wet. I can’t blame the course for how I played. I will definitely go back when it’s a little warmer.

One the best course in Cincinnati

Every time I visit the course, I feel the wonderful staff's careful consideration for the customers makes me so comfortable to play there. The course is maintained so well that even in winter, we have no problem playing there. Highly recommendable A+++++++++++++++++.

Great layout!

Love the course layout, but tee boxes and greens were in rough shape. I also understand that it is off season and December. I’m sure they will work on them before next golf season. I look forward to playing here again in the middle of the golf season to compare the course to how it looked and played in December.

Slow, slow, and slower

5 hours and 45 min round, following what I was told three groups of 4… off the tee on 13, you could see two full holes open and these groups waiting for the group in front to clear the green… an 11:54 tee time finished at dark, while groups behind us just stopped and headed for the clubhouse.

Disappointed

Course is in bad shape. Fairways are hit and miss, bare spots everywhere, tees are not good, greens terribly slow. Won't be back this year. Not worth the trip or the money!
