Deer Ridge Golf Club is a top-ranked public golf course located in Bellville, Ohio, between Cleveland and Columbus. Known for its scenic views and challenging design, it’s been recognized by GolfWeek as one of the top 10 public courses in the state. The course features tree-lined fairways, elevation changes, and strategic greens, making it enjoyable and demanding for golfers of all levels.
The 18-hole championship course offers modern E-Z-GO golf carts with GPS systems, helping players navigate the terrain and improve their game. The 12,000-square-foot clubhouse overlooks the 1st and 10th holes and includes a large deck, restaurant, and banquet space. Inside, guests can dine at the Black Dog Tavern, which serves a full menu year-round in a relaxed, rustic setting.
The Black Dog Tavern is family-owned and inspired by the Wright family’s dogs—T-Bone, Bentley, and their newest addition, Einstein. The restaurant is designed to make every visitor feel at home, offering casual dining, a friendly bar, and beautiful course views. It also hosts events and private parties in its downstairs banquet area.
Deer Ridge also offers a new indoor golf simulator, allowing guests to play and practice in any weather. The simulator lets players enjoy virtual versions of famous golf courses, use advanced range metrics, or play mini games. It’s ideal for individual play, small groups, or competitive leagues.
Hourly simulator rentals are available, with pricing based on time, not per player. Weekday morning sessions before 1 p.m. cost $35 per hour, weekday afternoons are $40 per hour, and weekends are $50 per hour. Mini Memberships are available at $350 for 10 hours or $200 for 5 hours, offering discounted play rates anytime.
The simulator also hosts monthly tournament series where golfers play 18 holes across three courses—local, national, and international. Players submit scores to the pro shop, and entry fees go entirely toward prize payouts.
In addition to the simulator, Deer Ridge Golf Club offers memberships, leagues, and outing opportunities for groups. Members enjoy discounts on food, merchandise, and tee times, while leagues and tournaments are open to both individuals and organizations.
Guests can book simulator sessions or tee times by calling 419-886-7090 or visiting the club’s website. Deer Ridge provides an exceptional golf and dining experience, combining a beautiful outdoor course with an all-weather indoor simulator and a welcoming restaurant for golfers and guests alike.
