Glenview Golf Course

Glenview Golf Course opened as an 18-hole Jack Kidwell design in 1963 just north of downtown Cincinnati. Expansion to the current 27-hole layout came in phases: the South Course was designed by Arthur Hills and Dr. Michael Hurdzan and opened in 1974; the East/South pairing was built in 1975, also by Hurdzan and Hills. The course is one of six golf facilities operated by the Cincinnati Recreation Commission. Glenview hosted the 1987 U.S. Amateur Public Links Championship, a USGA national championship, giving it tournament-tested credentials that most Cincinnati public courses can't match. The three-nine rotation gives local members fresh 18-hole combinations; the Hills/Hurdzan nines play meaningfully tougher than the original Kidwell east nine. Peak green fee runs $32-55, genuine muni pricing for a USGA-championship-venue-level public course. Fits a Cincinnati trip as the premier public championship round.
