The neighborhood is decidedly upscale, with estate-like, contemporary homes of gracious proportions in a park-like setting. Several of the most prestigious country clubs in Columbus are nearby. Two are quite historic, founded in the 1920s. Both the Brookside Country Club and the York Temple Country Club have impeccable facilities.

The Scioto Country Club was founded in 1916 and is famous for several reasons. It was at Scioto Country Club that young Jack Nicklaus, one of the city’s most famous citizens, first played.
