The course is unique in its setup, with cart paths winding in unexpected directions as you snake through the course. There are several places where it feels imminent that you may get drilled by a ball from another hole. Aside from that goofiness, the course is fun and the staff are fantastic.

Customer service makes Devou a great experience for golfers. Matt the superintendent takes his job seriously and it shows in carpet fairways and smooth greens. The course is beautiful and narrow in spots but keeps you on your toes. The condition of the course is equal to local country clubs. wonderful experience, don't miss it! read more

Been a couple of year since I've played here and I was very impressed with the club house. They were on top of the COVID stuff but seemed to be operating smoothly. The course itself hadn't changed much and neither has my golf game. That golf course eats my golf balls like Pac-Man eating those pellets. Typical club house food (not a bad thing) and good prices. I'd play again! read more

Minimal rough spots on the course, top-of-the-line staff and course, and amazing scenery. Would come here again. Walkers beware though; between holes 4,5,6, and 7, there are several long-ish walks (maybe 400 meters.) read more

A very challenging course, fun to play. Lots of elevation changes. The greens and fairways were in fantastic shape, the ground crew was busy working the day we played and they were courteous and friendly. The price was reasonable and the skyline view from the 5th hole was amazing. read more

Worst Customer Service. Ever. Understaffed, rude, and the Pro is a complete jerk. The course is all right, but the customer service experience just makes it completely forgettable. The only thing nice about my time there at the course was the starter. He was really friendly. I'm not from the area (was there visiting friends that weekend). When I come back to Cincy with my golf clubs, I'll guarantee you that I won't be there. read more

Beautiful course, friendly staff, and excellent clubhouse! Great views of the city skyline while smacking a golf ball around the greens of Devou Park doesn't get much better. Did I mention the price? Very inexpensive for what you get to experience on the links. The reason this course doesn't get 5 stars is due to the fact that the cart paths can be extremely rough at times. Some large potholes and broken concrete along the way could lead you to spill your beer here and there, and that's not something I want to do! All in all, great experience and I would recommend to anyone! read more

This new clubhouse is wonderfully situated with great, expansive views of the rolling golf course. We had heard several recommendations from friends/neighbors and people seem excited to have this great spot within walking distance. We were not disappointed! The indoor ambience is more like a clubhouse than a bar, of course. But the outdoor veranda is gorgeous! We sat outside overlooking the course, drank cocktails and beer from plastic cups, selected good food (for the price!) from a basic menu of burgers with chips ($5),grilled cheese w/chips etc. Great casual, weekday evening with friends! We will definitely be going back on a regular basis. read more

Great Golf course, some of the holes are pretty tight. Expect to lose a few balls. Golf course was absolutely packed. Took over 6+ hours for three of us to golf 16 holes (had to leave to make a dinner reservation). We noticed that some of the holes had groups of 8 or more people. No wonder it took so long. Not sure if it was the Pro or the GM but he had the personality of a bag of dicks. read more

It's a hilly beast. Leave the driver in the bag unless the hole is wide open. Pricing is reasonable but you may lose $20 worth of balls in 18 holes with all of the trees and rough. The location is convenient for most of Northern Kentucky to get here, and it isn't usually crowded. read more

Other than one tee box and the 1st hole being cut short because of construction, this course was in incredible shape. It's a very challenging setup with some very tight holes which I like because I can hit my driver straight. If you have a bad slice or hook then you might want to bring 2 dozen balls. Also, there is one hole that overlooks the city and has to be one of the best views in Cincinnati. read more

This course is more challenging to negotiate on the cart than with your clubs. It's a hilly-twisting-rough-steep-psychotic roller coaster ride. Seriously, the course is challenging and has amazing views of Cincinnati and the river. I had a blast. The club house needs serious updating. They ran out of ice too. 9th hole burger was very dry. Lost a lot of balls. Found just as many though! Broke even! Overall, the course could be an award winning course. Just needs cleaned up and updated. read more

Oh, she's a BEAST, but a pretty beast with views of Cincinnati, and the Ohio river. Given atmosphere and admitting she's nestled beautifully within an almost surrealistic setting of arbor she is a hilly, intricately short, tight and unforgiving beast. Which makes the beast all the more fun to play, bring plenty of balls and play stroke plus distance off all tees. If you have fits of anxiety, are stressed out, uptight, think you got game for any course.....stay home! read more

They have let some kind of rot creep under the greens. We have watched it get worse consistently over the past month until the last weekend when they were completely unputtable. To make matters worse the greens and much of the fairways were hard pan. I knew we were in trouble on the very first hole when I had a 100 yard lob wedge straight down the chimney that landed on the front of the green bounced 5 ft high and rolled off the back. To make matters worse they raised prices this year and have let the course go to crap. I really like this course but it is simply not worth the money. I really want this place to do well but won't be playing it again unless it gets significantly better. We made a tee time on the course for the next weekend at elks run. It's worth a few dollars more to us to not have to put up with the aggravation. I figure over the last 3 years we've spent at least $8,000 at twin oaks. I just don't know how they're going to survive.

I have been playing golf since I was three years old and this is a perfect oasis for me. It's quiet, serene and you can even get a strawberry shortcake ice cream in the shop. WIN! There is a small pro shop at the end of the long entrance. A basket of balls comes in $5 or $10. The large is $10 and is more than enough. This will last you about an hour. There are three places to hit, all of which go into a beautiful lake. The top deck which is my favorite, the tee's, and the grounds. The tee's are somewhat unpredictable and if it's hot out there is NO shade. My favorite part are the different colored boats in the water. If you hit any of them you pretty much win the day. My only real complaint about this place was that I didn't have my clubs one day and I just wanted to stop by and hit some, and the clubs that they have are rusty and straight out of the 70's. It might be a good investment for even a few new ones. So be advised -- bring your own clubs. Other than that, this is one of my all time favorite places to pass the time. Check it out!

There's also an outdoor fitness trail that I loved. It has different workout stations along the way, and it's actually really fun, not just functional. It's a great way for both kids and adults to be active. There's also a huge playground and a mini water park area for kids, plus accessible bathrooms and good seasonal amenities. It's very family friendly without feeling overcrowded. If you're into disc golf, this place is a gem. There's a large disc golf course, and they even sell discs and gear right inside the nature center. Another thing worth mentioning is how amazing Great Parks of Hamilton County is overall. They offer so many programs like beginner fishing, guided hikes, plant swaps, art workshops, amphibian hunts, and even owl pellet dissections. Not all of these are specific to this park, but many are hosted here, and it really adds to how special the experience is. Overall, this is an extremely pleasant place to spend time.
