The eighth hole at Longaberger

I’ve always enjoyed playing at Longaberger Golf Club but sooner or later reality had to set in: Why golf at the ‘berger when you can golf at Cook’s Creek for a fraction of the price and cut your drive time on top of it all? I would rate Cook’s Creek right up there with Longaberger, but driving over an hour and paying $125 (sans free towel these days) didn’t seem to cut it now that the novelty has worn off the ‘berger. Granted, the last time I played at Longaberger was at the beginning of April, and I was able to take advantage of the $79 greens fee (we were one of two groups on the course that day) and play 27 holes. Well all that has changed somewhat. Now, the ‘berger is $99 to play 18 for the summer with fees dropping to $89 on October 3. Those greens fees are starting to come more in line with what they should be. Eventually, the ‘berger may have to drop their fees even more as there is just too much competition in central Ohio from other golf courses.
