    You get kicked in the teeth for 18 holes but it’s still awesome. Played 36 the last 2 days and was able to stay in the villas and couldn’t find the club face til about hole 32. Not the place you want to be struggling off the tee.

    Great greens and very playable course in great condition. The greens were slippery and the defense of the course. Courses that run through housing neighborhoods aren't my favorite settings.

    Greens are pure, layout is great and the staff there are some of the kindest people out there. Every bunker at CCC is so well placed and the course punishes you in fun ways with classic Ross design.

How we rank

This ranking uses each golfer’s conditions rating, on a 0.5–5 scale. Conditions is the golfer’s overall conditions score, or the average of their greens, fairways, tee box, and bunker scores when no overall was given. Every golfer counts once per course: repeat rounds are averaged first, then the course score is the average across golfers. A course needs conditions ratings from at least 5 different golfers. Ties go to the course with more golfers, then the higher Course Vaults score. Only open courses with a published Course Vaults score (at least 5 explicit ratings) are eligible, and a page is published only when at least 5 courses qualify. City pages include courses within about 25 miles of Columbus, so nearby suburbs can appear. Rankings refresh about hourly.
