Chardon Lakes Golf Course
About
Chardon Lakes Golf Course opened as a nine-hole course in 1931. The original layout was designed by Bert Way, the same creative mind behind two of the popular golf courses in Ohio: Firestone North in Akron and Mayfield C.C. in Lyndhurst. The second nine was added in 1963. The golf course has a traditional layout with challenges that have withstood the test of the time. It has hosted several qualifiers for the Cleveland Open, most recently in 2001. Many famous players have tested their luck on the golf course, including Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus, whose score of 67 from the back tees is still the course record. Mature trees line Chardon Lakes Golf Course's fairways and there are more than 40 bunkers strategically placed along the large, undulating greens. There are also water hazards on 11 holes.

Country club condition
Have played here for over 30 years. The conditions are the absolute best ever. In particular, the sand is pure, PGA level and the best in all the other courses around this area. Pace of play slowed down in the back 9, possibly some people cane in. But not a big deal. The prices have gone up but you get your value. Keep up the good work!
Wonderful experience
Brand new to golf. Went with a couple of my buddies and it was challenging but not intimidating would recommend
Do not play on the weekends
Overall not terrible . Would only play during the week. Tee times are 8 minutes apart for premium price on weekends, coupled with 3 hour pace of place for 9 holes. Had to cut the round short 2 holes due to lack of pace. Not one ranger seen on the course whole day. No beverage cart service all day on a Sunday 80+ degrees. Probably won’t be playing here again. Would not recommend.
Great Shape
Course is in great shape with an interesting layout.
Greens were well maintained Fast and True.
So worth it
Best 6200 yards in all of Ohio. When you play a course that Jack holds the course record. (. 67. ). You know your in a great spot
Rookie
First time playing. Fair but very challenging. Enjoyed the round with my wife, daughter and son-in-law..
Great Shape
Be below the hole
This course will test you on the greens
It's not long
Greens are wicked fast
The tee boxes could use some TLC
Better bring your running shoes for how fast the greens are
Great course honestly.
Fast greens and beautiful scenery. I’m a divot player. Grass is still hard
