Rating 71.4

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.

Slow greens

Played here many times over the years and the course is in great condition. My only complaint is that the greens are very shaggy and slow. Putting is the most important part if golf. Not a fan of shaggy greens

Going down fast

Used to be a really nice course but this was the worst I ever seen it. Rough tee boxes. Dead areas in the fairways. Lot of dirt. Construction. Greens punched and didn't warn us. Fairways punched so they made us do cart path only. Very bad experience overall.

Last minute round at legacy. Got paired up with two ladies and one senior. Had a relaxing, enjoyable and entertaining round. The greens were a little bumpy because it was late in the afternoon. It’s probably best to go to the course in the early morning before heavy traffic. It’s worth the money. Enjoy

Nice course! Play lagged.

The course itself was well kept, staff absolutely Great! Took me 5 and a half hours to do 18. It’s not a long course but a lot of waiting on the back nine.
