Golfers in Cincinnati, Ohio, have long prized city courses for their high quality and low prices.

Those will be among the topics in play should the city decide to sell its courses or manage them in a new way – possibilities raised by the just-out Cincinnati Futures Commission report.

The courses could fetch a combined $6.5 million to $27.3 million, the report says, depending on whether they were bought by private golf course operators or sold off for development.

Here’s a look at the city’s six courses, operated by the Cincinnati Recreation Commission, as they stand today.

Six courses with rates starting under $20

The six courses – two on the west side, two on the east, one in the central part of the city and one north – all operate seven days a week, weather permitting.

Rates start below $20 for a nine-hole round, with higher costs Friday through Sunday and for before-noon tee times. Kids younger than 17 are free with a playing adult.

The courses take reservations online, up to 10 days in advance; by phone at (513) 651-4653, seven or fewer days in advance. Groups are limited to foursomes.

The venues sell snacks and beverages in their clubhouses, and ban players from bringing their own beer or alcohol on courses.
