Nice course, very good value

Walden is one of the courses in the Greater Cincinnati area that consistently provides an excellent value.
The conditions are very good.
The greens are in very good condition, great if more golfers would repair their ball marks.
Bunkers are dirt, not sand - but they play fine.
Layout is challenging and fair.

I would prefer electric golf carts over the gas carts they use, but it does not take away from the golf experience.

I love this course

I've been playing this course for the last 7 years and the bunkers have never had sand. This is the only down fall to this course.

Public Course with Private Ambiance

Course was in fantastic condition. I felt the Bunkers were in very good shape. Several other courses I've played this year had rock hard bunkers. The only reason I could see for low ratings from other golfers on bunkers, was the fact that a few holes appeared to have changed or moved bunkers, leaving older bunkers without sand, allowing grass to grow in them. But the working bunkers were in very good condition.
Club House appears to be historic, which is appealing, but need to work on bathrooms. Sink was backed up, Faucet dripping, which was actually useful, because hot and cold handles weren't working.
But reason for being there was Golf, and the Golf Course itself was excellent.

Public Course with Private Course Ambiance

Course is in Prestigious condition. Club house needs work, especially bathroom. Used bathroom, water backed up in the sink, and dripping out of faucet, which was kind of good because the handles for hot and cold weren't working.
But the course is the main reason for being there. And the course was Amazing. The first Sand traps I've played this year that weren't rock hard.
So with a little work on the club house, I would give All Five Star Rating!

My Go-To Golf Course

There isn't much to not like about this course. Quality for the price. The only annoying thing is that the course is very popular with leagues and the twilight rate seems to bring out every golfer in the area. Facilities are great, grass is great, I cannot stress enough how great the course is.

Enjoyable course

We played 18 holes in 3.5 hours. This is probably not the norm but due to windy weather the course was not crowded. Overall in great shape except some of the bunkers. Course layout is very good.. great mix of challenging terrain and well positioned hazards. Staff was great.. we'll be back!

This is what is wrong with golf

I played here at least 5 times. Every time it's slow going. Often got stuck behind foursome of old guys playing slow. Come on people, there is no shame in letting faster players play thru!!! We constantly pushed them but they wouldn't let us play through. The bunkers were full of water even though it hasn't rain in four days. There was no water cooler in the front nine. I won't be back here unless I am desperate.

Soggy Day.

Course was in excellent shape for the amount of recent rains. Some low spots in fairways and rough were extremely wet and a few bunkers had standing water. With the rain totals, not unexpected. The greens were in perfect shape and were quick and true. 1st time back in years and will return soon. Staff were friendly and accommodating
