Both the staff and other golfers were incredibly rude and made snide comments about pace of play, asking us to make sure we hurried despite us not being able to play earlier and not needing to do so. They were probably feeling empowered to do so just because we were a group of girls. I would not recommend this course to anyone female and under the age of 50 unless you enjoy being talked down to.

Was it worth $50? Probably not but the course is nice and clean. Feels like a private course and…read moreit's not but still feels like the price is too much. Snack shop is also not cheap. Overall though can't complain too much. Best course near Milford / Loveland that I have played at so far.

I have always wanted to learn how to play golf. It's not that I ever really enjoyed the sport or…read morecared much for it, but all my clients play it! If I'm going to stay competitive in my business, I better start getting competitive on the course. Where to begin? Coldstream Country Club is the cat's meow of golf courses in the Cincinnati area. Located just far enough outside the noise of the city but not too far that it takes too much time away from the day to take a lesson. The drive from the city's center is just about 20 minutes and it never seems that long. For me, holding the golf club for the first time was as awkward as a blind date, but Matt, my golf instructor, eased me in to the stance and my game! That's right, I said game! I'm not going pro anytime soon or, ever really, but I absolutely feel that after the 4 lessons I have had that I have improved exponentially.Give me 4 more and I just might be able to go out with clients. He helps me help myself! He is an amazing golf instuctor with loads of experience and time on the course. Matt is extremely attentive and observant. His critique is professional and sensitive to my competitive, have to be awesome at everything nature. He allows me the opportunity to call myself out on my own mistakes and gives me a chance to correct them. I did learn the dress code the hard way. So, follow it carefully and be conservative! To be on the safe side, wear khaki pants and a shirt with sleeves and a collar. Nothing revolutionary for a country club, but these rules are nothing to push the envelope on.

The people here make you feel like you belong, even if you're not a member.

We looked at the space and tasted the food and booked it. Our wedding? People won't stop talking about how great of an experience O'Bannon provided them. The food was excellent and the welcoming staff was even better. If you want a laid back club with great golf, staff, food and members then this club is a no-brainer.

If you sign up for their e-club you get a free green fee and also get updates on specials and a free round of golf for your b-day! That is what I like to hear free free free. Also it is fairly priced anyway so it wont break the bank. This is where my high school golf team had practices so I would say I am the most familar with this course. It is a fair course, with beautiful greens. The landscaping is very well kept compared to others in the area. They have leagues here too where are kind of cool, but also kind of annoying because it is so busy. All around great starter course.

I got 6 of the Honey Bourbon & 6 of the Traditional Hot with ranch & blue cheese with a Miller Lite. The wings came out & were literally fall off the bone tender. Every. Single. One. The bones could be pulled out clean with no meat. I've never had wings like this from any other place. It's a mini golf course & a driving range with a sleeper on craft food. Don't drive by - stop in! I'd hit it...again.

The owners made a great little eating spot right in the middle of their golf driving range/putt putt/outdoor winter walking area. They strived to make this a great experience. Job well done.

"I said to our group, this is like playing in the Old Tom Morris days" before modern mowing equipment and smooth greens. Fairways had lots of crabgrass but very little desirable turf. Rough was just as bad, as was the driving range. Traps looked terrible but fortunately we were never in one. We played 18 holes from the blue tees which were actually a little better than the others, but still horrendous. The ponds had enough scum on them it looked like you could walk across them. It was almost 90 degrees with blazing sun in mid-August and no water fountains or coolers anywhere on the course. If I had known, I would have packed more water. The golf carts are nice, looking new and electric powered. The cheeseburgers were good, too. Staff was very friendly and accommodating.
