Lakeside at Shaker Run Golf Club

Lakeside at Shaker Run Golf Club is an Arthur Hills design located in Lebanon, Ohio, approximately thirty miles northeast of Cincinnati. Opened in the mid-1990s as part of a 36-hole facility, the course takes its name from the water features that figure prominently in the routing. Hills, known for his work throughout the Midwest and his ability to shape dramatic landforms from relatively modest terrain, created a layout that incorporates both natural and constructed water hazards across several holes.

The course plays through gently rolling Ohio countryside typical of the region, with mature tree lines framing fairways and elevation changes that provide strategic interest without extreme slopes. Hills employed his characteristic bunkering style—large, sculpted sand complexes with irregular edges—to define landing areas and green approaches. The greens themselves feature moderate undulation and are sized to accommodate the course's role as a public facility that hosts regular play from a range of skill levels.

Shaker Run operates as a daily-fee facility and has developed a reputation within southwestern Ohio as a solid test of golf that balances challenge with playability. The Lakeside course shares the property with its companion layout, the Meadows, giving the club a substantial footprint and allowing for variety in course selection. The facility includes practice areas and a clubhouse that serves both courses, typical of the multi-course public golf complexes that became popular in the region during the 1990s development boom.
