quality guy seeks same

Interesting course 6200 yards from the tips with 5 very long par 5s, must play several times to understand lay ups on many short par 4s, very good condition considering the summer in Cleveland, fairways outstanding, greens pretty good, best Ive seen since the heat wave and drought. I recommend the course but figure to come back a 2nd or third time to shoot your average

Fantastic Course

Turkeyfoot Lakes is always in wonderful shape with outstanding greens. Looks like an easy little track, however, you better bring your A-Game and hit multiple clubs off the tee...

Bill from Akron

Turkey foot is nice course unfortunately it is notorious for allowing fivesomes and sixsomes out creating an extremely slow round. They cater to the locals and the rangers are worthless. A nice track I would not recommend this course to anyone wanting to play a four hour round on the weekend. Staff was aware of the slow play and acknowledged the fivesome spraying the ball were regulars. Thanks for the 6 hour round, never again.

Bill, we appreciate your feedback and we thank you for sharing that we have a nice course.

We apologize that the pace was not up to your standards, but there is no chance of a 4 hour round on the weekend at nearly any course. We have allowed larger 5-somes on busy days because the pace is slower for all, and even those groups will end up waiting as well. We hope you’ll give us another chance in the future.

Turkeyfoot July 4th

The course and layout are great at Turkeyfoot. Each hole is a different test. Very tight on some or wide open on others. Greens were fast and rolled true. The staff is mehh. Clubhouse is mehh. Overall I love Turkeyfoot and will always come back.

Liked the course but hated the greens

The greens keeper must have been having a bad day. Almost every pin was in a very difficult position, many about 10 feet from the fringe and several right on the top of a ridge. The greens were very hard and fairly fast. So it was next to impossible to stop the ball on the greens, much less close to the pin. Even wedges left no ball marks on the green. I had nine 3 putts and my buddy had about the same. Will not play again.

Go South

This course is worth the trip, conditions on par with the best in Cleveland. Even though a shorter course (6400 from the tips) still use almost every club. Probably the toughest greens in Northeast Ohio. Super fast and roll true, just don't be above the hole.

We are the driest course in the area and will always do carts out when every other course does walk or path only. Thanks for taking the time to share your review!

SLOW PACE OF PLAY

They have tee times, a starter, but he put a twosome out in the middle of foursomes, then but a foursome out , then another twosome. No ranger to speed players up, Too long of a round.

Staff is very friendly

We played at 5pm on Sunday and found the course to be in good condition and the staff friendly and helpful. One of the staff even helped my daughter unload the clubs into our car while I made a pit stop at the clubhouse. The clubhouse is older but is kept clean. The course would be in better shape if the golfers would take the time to repair divots and ball marks. The only drawback is the 18th hole runs along a busy road which can be distracting to a new golfer such as myself. I look forward to playing at Turkeyfoot again in the future.

Twilight Round @ Turkeyfoot

Played an evening round at Turkeyfoot after getting a great deal online. The course is in great condition and very green even with the lack of rain in the area. The course is not long, however, the day we played the pins were all on ridges or slopes and the greens were as slick as glass. This made placement of your approach shots key. There were times that members of my group were on the wrong side of the hole putting for birdie and had no chance to stop it within 10 feet of the cup. Overall, a nice challenge for any golfer and a prime example of how a course does not have to be long to be challenging.

This course is always well kept and the staff is friendly. Our last trip we got stuck behind a league, so pace of place was pretty slow. We still enjoyed our round very much and definitely will be back.

Playing as a single

Teed off by myself, no one in front of me. Played 12 holes in 1:15 (great). I got to number 13 and now I find 6 groups ( twosomes and foursomes) in front of me. poor management of course, to put these people out in front of me. I was very disappointed by this.
