Origins

The course was created in the late 1990s as Longaberger Golf Club, with Arthur Hills responsible for the design. It opened in 1999 on rolling land outside Nashport and was intended from the outset as a high-end public course rather than a private country club.

Did You Know?
The course opened in 1999 under the Longaberger Golf Club name before later becoming The Virtues.

Design Philosophy

Hills used the site's elevation, ridges, valleys and wooded areas while preserving generous fairway landing zones. The design places significant emphasis on approach shots into elevated and contoured greens, while five main tee distances broaden the range of playable yardages.

Development

The property later changed identity from Longaberger Golf Club to The Virtues Golf Club. The underlying course remained the Hills design, while the facility expanded its positioning around public golf, events, dining and stay-and-play visits.

Recognition

The course has repeatedly appeared in national public-course rankings. The current club specifically cites a No. 65 position in Golf Digest's Top 100 Public Courses in America and promotes itself as the top-ranked public course in Ohio.

Today

The Virtues remains open to public tee times and combines the championship course with practice facilities, instruction, dining, events and accommodation packages.
