Golf in Delaware

Delaware is the county seat of Delaware County north of Columbus, a community whose combination of Ohio Wesleyan University, a preserved historic downtown, and position in one of the state's fastest-growing counties creates a layered community identity that balances college-town culture with suburban growth pressure. The county's name honors the Delaware nation, whose historical territory encompassed this portion of central Ohio, and the Olentangy River valley's agricultural and recreational amenity has shaped the county's character since early settlement. Delaware's proximity to Columbus has driven substantial growth while the university's presence maintains a distinctive intellectual and cultural identity.
