About
Jamaica Run Golf Club offers one of the most challenging layouts in the Miami Valley. The difficult greens provide most of the trouble. They are small and hard to hit and on many holes they are elevated above the fairway, making it hard to play a run-up shot. The bentgrass fairways are spacious and thankfully more forgiving, but they are bordered by thick rough. Water hazards come into play on several holes. There is even one hole that crosses the meandering creek that runs through the golf course twice. The par-5 18th provides a memorable finish, requiring a tee shot past a large pond to a fairway that sits well below the pond. Finding the right club to use and a good spot to hit are nearly impossible.

No drinking water on Hot course
Great Course to play with several challenging holes to play. The only real issue I have is the lack of drinking stations in the course that made it very dangerous to play in a humid and very hot day. I bought a Gator Aide at the turn but it wasn’t enough. I felt very light headed and thought later it could have been a slight heat stroke. I checked my pulse on the course several times and it was normal. Recommendation You bring several bottles of water. This was a mistake I made thinking since the other courses proved Easter stations Jamaica Run would also have at least one on each 9,
Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. Your feedback about water on the course is important to us. As we begin the season, we are working to develop the best way to provide our guest with refreshments. We do allow outside drinks. We do not allow outside alcoholic beverages. You are welcome to bring your own bottled water, Gatorade, or another refreshment as long as it is alcohol-free. We are glad to see you rated everything else to be great during your game. We will continue to work towards an excellent experience by using your comment for guidance. Thank you for playing Jamaica Run Golf Club. We hope to see you again soon.
Course Conditions Greatly Improved
Last September, the course conditions were among the worst I have ever experienced. Our group swore off ever playing there again. Because of a promo, I called last week to ask if the course conditions had improved and was assured that they had. We played there yesterday and were pleasantly surprised that conditions were MUCH improved. Jamaica is back in our course rotation. Great job, Jamaica staff!!
We appreciate you leaving a review and rating us. We will inform the entire team, so they know their hard work is paying off. We look forward to having you back at Jamaica Run Golf Club!
We love hearing about our golfers' experiences. Please tell us more about what you enjoyed during your round. Thanks for choosing Jamaica Run Golf Club!
Greens were not cut and it took over 5 hours to play. A number of tee boxes were under repair. Staff was superb though

Pace and Organization Issues
Cost was on point, 27 for 18 and a cart. Not much available in pro shop, snack bar was moved outside and had what you needed as well as a course beverage rider. However, there was no monitoring of play and pace. Many fast groups of 2, extremely slow groups of 4 and 5 and a league that wasn’t spoken about when given direction at the beginning of our round. We allowed a group to play through, then at the turn had 3 groups in front of us and we were give the advice to jump a couple holes if we don’t mind losing them and that apparently angered a league player who felt the need to share that and that she was also an employee of the course, she didn’t present herself or the club well. Course had minor condition issues as well.
Pace of play was VERY SLOW>
2 Players should not take 5 hours to play 18 Holes. Group in front never offered to let us play a head.
Not fun to play around and have to wait on every shot.
We apologize for the pace of play issue you experienced. We always try to keep a great pace when having our golfers on the course. Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback as we will use your review to better the experience going forward. We hope you give us another try in the near future!
Embarrassing
I have played this course before, and quit playing due to conditions. I decided to give it a try again. Not again. If you’re looking to just drink and screw around on a course this is your course. $27 and you pay for what you get. I was going on 4 hours at the 13th tee box and quit. The tee boxes had long grass in them. Greens were in good shape, about the only thing good about the course. Will never play here again

Classic course; great deal for money
The course is in really good shape. Tee boxes, fairways, and greens were much better than expected. I've played out there in the late summer, and it's a little bit more beat up. Needless to say this is a good track. Always busy on the weekends. Will probably play there a few more times this year.

Rude Staff
The staff at the clubhouse is the reason young people don’t play golf. I (24) and my friends of the same age, who love to play golf and have always been respectful of the customs and courtesy’s of the game, just wanted come try out a new course and play a round. I could tell as soon as we walked into the club house that the staff lumped us in with some riff raff that would be loud and tear up the course. They treated us like garbage and suggested we leave after 9 holes, which we did. Unless you look like you are coming off the PGA tour, I wouldn’t visit this course.
Hi there. We are deeply sorry for any inconvenience you had at our course. That is certainly not how we feel toward any generation of players. We would love to rectify this and do what we can to get you back out to the course for another try. Please reach out to Dave Longley at 937-866-4333. Thanks!
Course being worked on
The course is being worked on. The sprinklers were being adjusted. Some new tee boxes were being setup.
Overall the course was in pretty good shape. They are in need of new golf carts.

Challenging and friendly staff, relaxed range time
Very easy going staff, can get slow at times, usually from beginner play! Still leisure play and great course for the price. Jamaica has always treated me fairly , I always come back!!
