Willow Run Golf Course

Willow Run Golf Club is about a half-hour drive northeast of Columbus. The club boasts one of the most affordable rounds you’ll find in the area. Opened in 1964, the course was designed by Jack Kidwell, an Ohio native that contributed numerous designs to his home state. The layout is a bit like playing two golf courses in one with a front nine that is target-oriented and a more open, links-style back nine. Your score will rely heavily on accurate shot placement on the front nine but the back is no walk in the park either. It even has what Willow Run Golf Club touts as one of Ohio’s toughest par 4s: the intimidating 13th. A creek that runs throughout the entire golf course, cuts in front of the small, undulating green on this tough par 4.
