LEGENDARY RUN GOLF COURSE
🇺🇸 Cincinnati, OH, USA
Designed by Arthur Hills


Legendary Run Golf Course sits in the northern suburbs of Cincinnati, designed by Arthur Hills and opened in the late 1990s. Hills, known for his work throughout the Midwest and his ability to shape dramatic landforms on relatively modest terrain, created a daily-fee facility that takes advantage of rolling topography characteristic of southwestern Ohio. The course features elevation changes and wooded corridors that define individual holes while providing a sense of seclusion despite its suburban setting.
The routing incorporates natural creek corridors and wetland areas, with several holes playing across or alongside water features. Hills employed his signature style of bold, sculpted bunkering and generous fairway corridors that reward strategic positioning over pure distance. The greens are moderately contoured with subtle internal movement, typical of his approach to creating challenge without excessive difficulty for the public golfer. Par varies by tee selection, with the course stretching to over 7,000 yards from the championship markers.
As a public facility, Legendary Run serves a broad cross-section of Cincinnati-area golfers and visitors. The course has hosted regional amateur events and qualifiers over the years, contributing to the competitive golf landscape in the greater Cincinnati region. The layout reflects Hills's philosophy of creating accessible yet interesting golf that can accommodate both casual play and tournament conditions.
Reviews
A decent layout that can be pretty challenging. The conditions are pretty sub par. Greens don’t run too quick and divots scattered all over the green. Bunkers aren’t well kept and tee boxes are torn up. Not a bad course but expected more for the price.
Solid. Couple of super challenging holes. Will make you use every club. Pretty good track for the Cincy area.
