This great value course is accompanied by a very well maintained pool with a friendly and efficient staff, three tennis courts and a fine driving range. Banquet and restaurant facilities at the country club are very competent; probably not the largest banquet facility, but highly adequate for most weddings, corporate meetings and the like.

Customer Service

I really like the friendliness of everyone on the staff. They are enthusiastic and well trained.

Best golf value in the Cincinnati area. I have been a member since 2008. I have found the staff to be extremely friendly and responsive. The course is challenging and gives you the opportunity to test all your shots. I played today, and the course was in outstanding condition. I moved back to the area in 2008, and have really enjoyed getting to know the members, and have established wondeful new friendships.

Customer Service

Staff is extremely friendly and always remembers to call me by name.

Shoots in the 90s

Very challenging golf course! There are 4 sets of tee boxes. The front 9 is walkable but hilly on several holes. The back 9 is very difficult to walk unless you are in great shape. You want a cart there. If you do well on this golf course you will do well on many others.

The greens are usually fast and there is a lot of heather. Water comes into play on a few holes on the front 9 but none on the back 9. The 2 par 3's on the back 9 are very challenging!

Great MGA with tournaments that vary from 1 day to many weeks. There is a Thursday night golf league.

Customer Service

Great Customer Service! Employees try to learn members names. All employees are very friendly.

I've been a member of Ivy Hills since before it opened. The golf course has always remained a challenge (a good thing if you want to join something for many years) and the groundskeeper always keeps it in great shape. The food quality is very good and their catering business for weddings and parties remains very busy ... also a good sign that they do a great job for their customers. The staff wants to know you and it feels like a place you can call a second home. The members have been very friendly and are generally very welcoming to new members. If you like playing in events, the Mens' Golf Association does a great job of setting up tournaments throughout the year that are very fun and a way to meet the members and potentially win some prizes! The pro-shop staff always runs the events very professionally and, as a member, the pricing on merchandise is very competitive.

Customer Service

Generally pretty good.

I really haven't played much else like it. It is a links style course with significant elevation changes.

Ivy Hills is an awesome place to improve your game. The course is challenging to any level of golfer. You have elvated tee boxes offering great views. You have up hill tee shots that require precision. The greens are fast with numerous breaks, some subtle, some big. Once you play the course and get to know your way around, you can enjoy the daily challenges and different pin locations. Kyle does a great job of keeping the course in top shape.

Customer Service

The entire staff at Ivy Hills is friendly to members and guests alike. All questions and requests are handled promptly and courteously. Dan (GM) and Marcus (Pro) always make sure your day is enjoyable.

Ivy Hills is a "diamond" of a links-style golf club located in Southeastern Cincinnati, Ohio. Built around an old rock quarry, the look and feel makes you think you are visiting a course you find in Scotland (rolling hills, fescue, elevation change, and fast greens). The course is challenging, but the more you play the better you will become. You will learn to putt better on the fast bent grass greens and your short game will be put to test in the case you miss wide on a few shots. Overall the course is very entertaining and the views are exceptional. A "must play" in Cincinnati.

Customer Service

In regards to Customer Service, Ivy Hills makes you feel that you are part of their family. Everyone one one you run into is very friendly and they put in the extra effort to make your time their enjoyable. From the cart service, to the bar, from the clubhouse grill, to Management... everyone is amazing. I cannot say enough about the staff. A job well done.

Since I am new to Cincinnati, I have not played a course quit like it. The closest course I have played to Ivy Hills is the Tribute Golf Club (Northwest of Dallas, Texas) which is a course that was designed to mirror the famous Scottish golf links (St. Andrews Road Hole, Postage Stamp at Royal Troon, etc). I love links golf because it forces you to play different shots in your bag.

Very challenging course with a lot of elevation changes. Not many flat lies and very few straight putts, forcing you to bring your "A game." A great course for all skill levels, as the different Tee boxes can help out the beginners.

Customer Service

Very satisfied with everyone throughout the entire club. They treat you with respect and take care of all of your needs in a timely manner.

Similar Products Used:

Ivy Hills is unique because you can very easily shoot 10 strokes different in back to back rounds. Always offers up a challenge and doesn't get old to play like some other local courses.
