Lovely coarse!!

Love this place but you can't charge 6 dollars for a hotdog on the turn. How about 2 for $6 or one for $4. It's just gauging your customers!!

Phenomenal

For the beginning of November, This course was in immaculate shape from tee-box to Greens!! Could not believe how well maintained the course was for this time of year! I Play All over central Ohio several times throughout the year and this was my 4th time on this course this year and by far one of the best times! Thank you and hat's off to the Starter who was a riot and started our Day on the course Off with all the laughs and Great time you're supposed to have while out there! Highly recommend if you can get out there in the next couple weeks, you won't be disappointed! My Only gripe would be, it's a bit pricey for November Golf!!

Great East-side option

Played with a buddy who recommended CT and I couldn’t have been happier with the course. Impeccable shape, especially considering the time of year and even with a slight drizzle in the first round the conditions remained enjoyable

Very nice course

I’m from out of town traveling to Columbus for business. Being a golf nut I always take my clubs with me and squeeze in a round or two.

I’ve played at many high end and even private clubs around the country and this ranks up there.

Pros
The fairways and greens were top notched. Staff was friendly. Marshall was very accommodating. Prices was excellent. Paid $30 after GN discount.

Cons
Hitting range for irons only. No drivers. This was the only con so I’ll take it .

Delighted I played this course

Golf now gave me a great deal. Course was in excellent condition. Pace of play was good. Just over 4 hours for 18 holes. Greens were very accepting to approach shots. Weather was perfect. Just a great day at Cumberland Trails.

Great course, poor amenities

Course was great, greens were lighting fast and a little dried out but overall great conditions. Disappointed that my $6 brat had sat wrapped in foil in a warmer for what I can only imagine was the majority of the day, two bites and tossed it.

Cumberland Trail

Played a twilight round on Sunday (7/30). The course was in decent shape (aside from some bunkers). Was a bit surprised in the speed of the greens though. I recall the greens here running rather fast ... they were not.

And the cart ran out of power mid-way through the 9th hole.

Beautiful course but greens are in rough shape

Would have been a 5 out of 5, however energy green was absolutely peppered with ball marks.

Course in nice shape. The pace of play was slow, waited on every hole, so it was a 5-hour round. Will play there again if the price is right.

Love this place

Starters think they run the play, in a good/funny way. Course is amazing. Would love for them to finish the bunkers. Still need people to fix their ball marks on the green! This isn’t your local 30$ course even tho the price could be a little less. Do better with tee time and outings also
