Bent Tree Golf Club Tee Times

Course is not in good shape at all. Greens are littered with divot marks, fairways are dead, and the tee boxes are pretty high. Clubhouse is nice but might be the only positive part of this course. Will not be back.

Donte waste your time or money. Columbus collective/new era courses are the most overpriced and under maintained in the central Ohio area. Such better courses out there at a fraction of the cost.

Went back to Bent Tree for the first time in 3 years and the recent reviews had me a little nervous. After playing 18 on a Friday mid-day for $50, I think the recent string of bad reviews are overblown. Staff - The pro shop and concession staff were very friendly even with the guy at the front desk flustered because their site was down and couldn't process payments (we paid at the turn). Layout - For north Columbus public golf, Bent tree is challenging but fair and I used every club in my bag. It has good character and makes you think around the course. Course conditions - With the severe lack of rain, I think the course was holding up pretty well. Sure there were bare spots here and there, but other recent reviews are a little overblown. They had recently aerated the greens and collars which made the greens very bumpy, but that happens every year and may explain the decreased greens fees. The bunkers were horrendous. Some new sand and ongoing care would make this a quick improvement if they cared to address. Speed of play - This was abysmal. It took us nearly 5 hours to play. We were stacked up on nearly every tee box. This would be a quick fix if someone was willing to confront the 1 group 4 holes ahead that is taking too long and slowing everyone else behind them up. Being tuff on one group makes everyone else's experience better. Value - $50 was a good deal. $70 would be tough to swallow but everyone has their own perspective. I'd go back tomorrow to play this course in that condition on a Friday. I can't speak to Kempersports intentions for their courses. I recently heard Royal American is being turned into a housing development. I wouldn't be surprised if they're trying to squeeze as much money out of their courses at the expense of their customers. It seems to be the way of the world now. Overall, today was a good day of golf.

Played 10/22/2023. Loved the course layout, and was in great shape for end of season. Really challenging and fun layout for sure. Staff was great and welcoming. If you’re in the area, I highly recommend checking this one out. Beautiful clubhouse as well.

One of my best rounds to date! The course was in rough shape, but central Ohio has been dealing with extreme heat and no rain. Nonetheless, they were taking care of the course. My girlfriend and I love playing here because of how friendly the staff are. The course is fun with a couple challenging holes.
