Meadows/Woodlands at Shaker Run Golf Club

It's a terrible course for the price and it's completely covered in weeds

Rude rangers that are only found at the first tee box. Insanely slow players allowed to apparently play 2-3 balls each hole. No advantage to play early as they will jam players on both of the other 9’s so once you’re done with your first 9 you’ll just be waiting (20 minutes) behind people that are just now teeing off their first hole. Made the “10th hole” at 9:17 and was told we had to wait for the group that was supposed to tee off at 9:10 to go first. Told “Ranger” we wouldn’t be back and his response was “really? That’s your deal breaker? You guys are just entitled.” Thanks for the horrible experience!

Played the lakeside/meadows. The conditions were on the shaggy side which was a bit disappointing. The fairways appeared to be in decent shape but just don't look like they've been mowed in a week. Very shaggy.

Greens rolled well.

Bunkers were full of sand (almost too much) which is a good problem to have this early in the season. I'm sure they'll get in better shape as the season moved along.

Overall wasn't completely disappointed but still a left wanting a little more. Hopefully this isn't a sign of how the course will be taken care of this season and just caulk it up the early season

Side note: the endless house construction on these two nines doesn't appear to be ending anytime soon which is little disappointing for the asthenic of the golf course currently

Played for first time! Friendly staff. Wonderfully maintained greens. Some very challenging holes . Only played front 9 . Will definitely come back to play all 18 !

I played this course 4 years ago, kicking myself for not playing it since then. Really a fantastic layout on both 9s, hitting over water several times on Lakeside and Meadows is a fun and fairly open layout. You've got some short holes, a couple doglegs, par 3s over water, tiered greens, just a fun 18 holes without being crazy difficult..

Lakeside is in great condition. All of the bunkers on the Meadows 9 are dirt/clover, but the course itself is in decent enough condition. Really weird on the bunkers b/c all of the bunkers on Lakeside were in really great condition, hopefully they're renovating them or if not turn them into grass bunkers.

Ever since this place has changed ownership; you will see consistent improvements every year. My family eats at the restaurant twice a week and my son plays Golf here. I myself play work related tournaments here every year. The food selection has changed 4 times and keeps getting better with a nice mix of favorites for any taste. The course has improved dramatically with a full reconditioning of some parts with more plans to improve the entire course. Yes, housing has begin to take over parts but that just adds to the challenge. The entire staff is amazing; they remember you by name (you would expect this after going so often but in today’s world most businesses don’t), everyone always has a smile on their face, and we enjoy the small talk. I would highly recommend you give this course and clubhouse another try. Give it a few more years and it will be restored to its full former glory!

Wow! Is all I can say. 15 years ago this was one of Ohio’s top public courses... not anymore. We played the meadows/woodlands. The bunkers on the meadows are totally unplayable.... rocks and grass in the bunkers and the woodlands side Not much better. The course is under new management AGAIN... so we will see if anything changes.

They are adding housing and they have changed how the course plays. I was extremely disappointed in the condition of the course and the pace of play was SLOW!

A really enjoyable and surprising course! ...met the new owner - she was so unassuming and personal. Golf shop and cart personnel were inviting... the atmosphere here oozes of hospitality and golf!
Sadly, on #3 and #4 they are doing construction... seems people want more houses in a place that should be secluded...

Condo construction an/around the course was definitely a distraction.

Construction, Shortened holes, Still one awesome place to play...Staff friendly...Everyone is happy there. I Loved It....I do recommend playing Shaker Run, Its very very nice. Thank You...Butch McKinney, LUCKY Member of class of 2015 Hall of Fame Wall, Dayton Ohio.

Some construction going on but the price is right so just deal with it.
Shouldn't effect the golfing experience that much.

Weather colder than predicted (43F) and windy with a bit of rain on the last hold. Cart path only and greens aerated. Still, the course is good and challenging. Only general complaint with the course is that my GPS could not find the Woodlands portion of our round and yardage markers are not always easy to find. A character building round of golf.

Course was in great shape, greens were iffy, a lot of sand, they have just been punched, so they were ok. Usually greens are in good shape. Played all 3 nines today, all were in good shape, except the meadows, every bunker was empty of sand and had weeds growing in them. Very ugly to see on a nice course, embarrassing really when you have expensive condos and houses on the course.

Shaker run is currently in the process of building homes between the golf holes. Fairways are now a lot narrower.
Some holes are changing (shorter). The greens are the worst I’ve ever encountered on a course. They were airaited
But the sanding did not help. What sanding did occur has sunk into the holes leaving quarter inch deep holes, leaving
The greens unputtable. No matter how low a price you get, save your money.
Shaker run continues to let me down.

The course is fun to play and I would assume to be very nice back in the day. The course is maintained fairly well, but the bunkers are in desperate need of sand. Most bunkers are mud pits that are either holding water or the ground has split from the mud drying out. Their range is a great feature if you prefer to warm up before the round. The staff is extremely friendly and the course has a good lay out. There was some work being done on Lakeside so it was a little bit of a mess. It's not a big deal, just an effect of progress. All in all, I would recommend this course as a good one to play.

The entire Lakeside course was under housing construction and we were not informed before booking tee time or even at the clubhouse before play. The construction made the course almost unplayable and very aggravating. There would be many blind shots for a first time player at the course which would end up out of play in the construction zones.

Lakeside course in under construction for the building of condos. The fairways in holes 3-8 are being revamped for the condos. Lots of dirt and machines can been seen on this course. Paid for Lakeside/Woodlands but as usual changed to Meadows/Lakeside. The bunkers and high grass roughs made for looking for a ball monotonous. The price for this day was not a good value it wasn't worth 20 dollars. They can keep their courses and their high prices.
