To get here, you have to travel through the scenic back roads of Old Town Batavia, over the river and through the woods. Next thing you know, you arrive to see openness surrounded by mini mountains of woods. Here lies Elks Run designed by Greg Norman. Exquisite layout. A little on the tight side, but for it being a championship course that's to be expected. The views, outstanding. Each and every single hole was excitingly challenging. I do recommend this course for anyone more advanced in the game. Hole 8 will get your rocks off for sure.

One of my favorite courses around Clermont County, but when I call in on the first decent weekend to check course conditions.. I'm routed to some call center that has no idea what the course conditions look like and had to park me to call the Pro Shop to confirm course conditions? She couldn't even make contact and recommended I call back in 10-15 minutes to "try again".
Really?

For a public golf courses this place is pretty sweet, great layout!!! There's room on most holes off the tee but it really comes down to pin placements and approach shots.... Played mid May and the whole course was in good shape, bunkers were premo also!! Some good elevation changes so you'll want to pay attention when judging yardages, the creek that runs throughout the course lined both sides with the rock is a nice touch!! Yes I strongly suggest playing here and I can't wait to come back

Wonderful course. We live 3 hrs away and will make the drive to play again for sure. It is in great condition even after a hard rain the night before. Challenging but fair. Pricey but well worth it. Everyone was so very nice. This is course is a must.

Beautiful course with scenic views thanks to elevation changes, abundant water, and lots of trees. The clubhouse is also pleasant - friendly staff, great beer selection, nice TVs, good bathrooms, plenty of space. Unfortunately, our experience could have been better - we weren’t informed of the 15 minute detour due to construction, and the greens were being aerated during play on the last nice Sunday of the year. I get that it’s tough to predict weather and things need to be done for the sake of the course but still. The course needs some work on the tee-boxes, fairways, and greens - but it’s the end of the year so I’ll give benefit of the doubt. Overall, it is a fun course that I would play again.
