In summary

Elks 797 Golf Club is appreciated for its affordability and friendly staff, offering a fun and challenging layout that caters to both beginners and more experienced golfers. The course features a nice driving range, putting area, and a remodeled clubhouse with additional amenities like a bar and games. However, some visitors have noted issues with course maintenance, particularly the fairways and greens, and there have been occasional reports of customer service challenges at the front desk.

Challenging layout, just due to some blind shots. Play the Blue Tees (tips), fairly short course. 2-3 stars on condition, pretty rough fairways, but the greens are decent. Gave it 4 stars because its pretty cheap, so we didn't mind the conditions being a little lacking. Clubhouse treated us right.

Fairways are tight so if you got a nasty slice club down. Cart Girls are friendly and make regular stops. Nice course you can get 18 holes in fairly quickly. I would go back. They have a nice driving range and putting area .

This course is about as rough as it gets. Tee boxes, fairways, and rough are all the same - nothing but overgrown crabgrass, weeds, and dirt. "Bunkers" are just dirt, nit sand. Sadly, even $35 is too much

Best bang for your buck in the Cincinnati and Dayton area. Nice course to play 36 at. They remodeled inside too. Nice bar and a lot of tables. Hace some slot machines, other games, and a simulator too. It's probably a good thing I don't love in Wilmington or otherwise I'd be go there everyday.

Got what we paid for on a Saturday. $35 each for 18 holes and some carts. Fairways and greens are in pretty tough shape in the dead of summer, but tbh it really just feels like a good old fashioned backyard course. We had fun overall.

Brenda is probably the most insufferable person I’ve ever met in my life it’s kinda hard to wrap your head around. Extremely unapproachable and should never be allowed to do any sort of customer service in any occupation. Please get her out of there for the greater good of the establishment🤣🤣🤣

It's a fun, easy golf course. Perfect for beginners. Pace can get a little slow, but people are generally friendly.

Course in better shape than last year. Most greens are very good. A couple of greens with fungus like areas. A little bit of a funky layout in spots. Clubhouse food is excellent. Prices are great!

Played the Elks on 07/28/24. Third time here in 2024; always seems to be an issue at check-in; software is always down, and no one seems to know how much to charge. On this day, they didn't have adequate change. For a public course off of the beaten path, it isn't a bad place to play. Lots of trees; narrow fairways; however there generally is room on either side of the fairway to hit your approach after a wayward drive.Greens are bumpy; too many areas of fungus and dead grass. Challenging, fun layout. Carts have simple GPS units, however many of the units dont work. Carts were also very dirty.…

One of the worst maintained courses I've ever played. The "fairways" were anything but. Nothing but crab grass and bare spots. Greens were horrible, as well. Shag carpet like and full of disease. Also full of aeration holes, in September! At least I only wasted $30 for 18 and a cart. Should have known better for that price. The people were nice, at least.

Nice food but the course is no where near worth the 30 dollars for 18 even with a cart. You can't tell the difference between the fairway and rough. The fairways are pretty burnt up and in rough shape. They will let you use a cart even with ponds in the middle of the fairways. Overall they just do not take care of this course at all.
