About Inspiration Learning Center
About Golf Course
Century Pines is a mature and picturesque parkland golf course near Hamilton, home to majestic Maple, Oak, and Pine trees that fortify and frame its sculpted bentgrass fairways, lush tee decks, and undulating greens. The natural beauty of the forest and wetlands is enhanced by two creeks that meander throughout the course.
Numerous ponds, Ohio Valley sand-filled bunkers, and other natural hazards await errant strokes on this 18-hole golf course. Four sets of tee blocks allow a novice golfer to appreciate the generous landing areas, while challenging more accomplished players to execute a variety of shots using every club in the bag.
