The Camargo Club

The rolling hills of southwestern Ohio provide a canvas for one of the region's most underrated public tracks, where strategic bunkering and elevated greens demand precision over power. These Donald Ross-inspired putting surfaces tilt and undulate with enough character to humble single-digit handicaps, particularly the downhill par-3 16th that plays longer than its yardage suggests. Smart routing through mature hardwoods creates natural separation between holes while rewarding course management over brute force—a refreshing contrast to the target golf dominating modern Cincinnati layouts.
