The Galion Country Club is located just two miles South of Galion, Ohio on State Routes 309/61, about half the way between Mansfield and Marion Ohio. It is 23 miles (North on SR 61) from the intersection of SR 61 and Interstate 71. This places us just 60 miles North of Columbus, OH.
Our Golf Course :
It is an 18-hole course built on 180 acres of rolling and flat terrain. We have 20 acres of fairways, one and one half (1½) acres of tees, two and one half (2½) acres of greens, 37 bunkers, and five (5) ponds that come into play. Actually, it is two different courses in one. The front nine is a Jack Kidwell design, built in the late 1960's, with large bent grass tees, rye grass fairways, and large, heavily bunkered, greens. It is fairly flat and long, with large oak trees at key spots. From the blue tees, this nine holes will challenge even the longest of hitters. We built the back nine in the late 1920's and it is a typical "old design." This side features narrow, undulating, tree lined, fairways that feed into small greens. It favors "the shot maker" as it requires accuracy over length. Golfers recognize the greens as some of the finest in north-central Ohio.
