About

Located in Avon Lake, Sweetbriar Golf Club boasts two scenic 18-hole courses that are routed through natural wetlands and forests. The front nine of the Legacy Course was built in 2002 and the back nine was added in 2007. The nines have different landscapes, creating a diverse set of holes that will have you using all the clubs in your bag. The front nine has a links design with winding fairways and large greens while the back nine was carved from forests. With natural wetland areas and a number of interesting risk-reward par 5s, the back of the golf course has more of an east coast feel. The other 18-hole course at Sweetbriar was built in the 60s. It is shorter than the Legacy but is still challenging, which makes it great for beginners.

It was good

Played yesterday course was in good shape greens were nice and most bunkers were raked. They have had to cut down several trees due to last years storms but makes it more playable. Course was cart path only so pretty slow going but course is still wet from winter which is to be expected/ Driving range was open and packed with golfers great to see

Leav-ing Frustrated

Worked in the golf maintenence industry ( private & public) for 15 years. Never have I seen a course in worst condition for leaves. If they took bags of leaves and dumped them on the tees, fairways and greens there would be less. A once over would have help emencely. Granted the winds were quite strong there was no attempt to blow in any way shape or form the leaves whatsoever. I told the employee how I felt and he said " that's why we charge winter rates." I don't believe in my opinion that $40 for winter rates is that cheap that a round with leaves everywhere that it shouldn't be an issue. Ill never play this course in the "winter rate" months ever again

Pace of Play

The pace of play was absolutely ridiculous. I had to wait 10-15 minutes on every tee box.

Bring the hole bag

The course allows you to use the whole bag versus a number of clubs that most course do. We will be back.
