Pickaway Country Club is known for its welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff. Jack Kidwell, a local architect who designed this course and many others in Central Ohio, utilized his familiarity with the terrain but still kept each golf course distinct. Pickaway has an interesting layout that will test your shot-making abilities and strategy with narrow fairways lined with trees and small, fast greens that are difficult to read. Water hazards come into play on five holes and there are nearly 50 bunkers strategically placed throughout. There is one particularly difficult par-5 hole that requires a 250-yard drive over a meandering creek. Although the golf course offers a fair amount of challenges, they are balanced by a number of wide-open fairways that have ample space.

Great golf for the price!

Course was in great shape. Greens all ran well. Rough was actually penalizing in most places. Sand traps didn’t look great but I didn’t hit in any. Used a hot deal and got a great price.

Pickaway county club

The course conditions were good, but the layout of the course was a mess. Also the greens were in good condition.

Kind of sprinkled on & off for the first 4 holes. It was really crowded so the pace of play was a bit slow. I decided to get a rain check after the front nine. Good course though. Looking forward to getting back.

Enjoyable round,

We enjoyed the play at Pickaway CC….The course is making many improvements. The pace of play was alittle slow but everyone was good with it. The staff is super. We had chicken salad sandwiches and they. We’re great. I would recommend spending a day on this course.

Great shape

It’s hard to really enjoy this one due to the stacking of players but there is a fine line because operating revenue has to be generated. It would make more sense to have starters getting off first tee and not starting players until they reach first green and a ranger on the course monitoring. This is such a great course that needs more course monitoring, one of the best conditioned courses for sure.

Possibly underrated

First time playing the course, and I came away very impressed. Some of the reviews on golf now were not favorable, and as a result my friend and I were both skeptical. I thought the course was in very good condition. It is not long but is well protected by lush rough. If you keep it in the fairway, you will have a nice round. The greens were in very good condition, although at least in my opinion, they were slow. I would definitely play it again, and would recommend it.

Course is improving daily.

New Superintendent is doing a great job. I believe this is his first full season there and was at Lancaster before taking the position at PCC. He always had Lancaster in good shape and is quickly making his mark on Pickaway. Fairways were striped up nicely. Rough was mowed down and didn’t have any issues finding your ball. No dandelions anywhere so he’s been spraying his chemicals. Greens are rolling good. If you haven’t played it recently I would.

Always worth the drive to play here

With the exception of the gravel cart paths, the traps could use a little more sand and possibly four dual tee boxes where you. Really have to pay attention to which hole you are playing; I would give 5 stars.

The weather was ideal a little on the cool side but not bad. The course was in great shape. Always a pleasure to play here…

Great day!

Shot birdies and pars, had a blast challenging enough to be hard but not to difficult to make it not fun. The people we’re friendly on the course and the staff was great

Bad Shape

This course has dropped off tremendously within the last year and a half. Tee boxes were not mowed and not level, bunkers are totally unplayable, the fairway is cut just as high as the rough on most holes. Keeping in mind I’m writing this review in early April but I’ve played other courses in the area that are in much better overall condition. Such a fun layout, and a nice bar area; but I wouldn’t play here again at full price..

Rushing players to play

We had our tee time and was right on time . The group in front of us was halfway through hole 2 when we teed off 1. They had two twosomes behind us . The Ranger comes up to us on hole 8 and says we need to pickup the pace . I said we are on the green on 8 and by the time we finish 9 it’ll be a 2 hour pace correct . He said yes but the group ahead of you is a hole and a half ahead . I said they started off a hole and a half ahead of us . He said well you’re backing up the twosomes behind you . This completely ticked me off and through me off my game for 3 holes . We was at a great pace and to be rushed when at the average pace is ridiculous. Wont return for that reason . It was not our fault you mismanaged and put two twosomes behind us instead of pairing them . Ruined the experience for all of us . Also overpriced for a country course to be honest . Played Cumberland Trail for 10 bucks more 2 days before and it’s 100 times the course .
