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.

Great day great course!
The course is in perfect shape. Even with rain in the morning the greens were speedy and true. Pace of play was faster than usual in that we finished in less than 3.5 hours.
Nice course.
A course is a course of course of course, but no one can golf on a course of course, that is of course unless that course is the course of Chardon Lakes.

Course conditions present challenge
Great place to get away from it all. Still have problems with a few hole designs. And Tee boxes, specifically between Gold and Silver, really need to be a little more logical on several holes. #5 comes to mind.
Great course conditions and professional staff
Always a fun course with challenging holes. Pace was slow at first but we skipped a few holes and then pace was great.
No sand in bunker
This is one of our favorite course, Conditions are always top notch except the bunkers. These are dirt pits. You have to chip out of these. Fortunately these are not deep.
Well Maintained
I love this course. It’s always very well maintained and the course is laid out very nicely. The greens are always tough on this course so make sure you’re on your A game
Enjoyable Challenge
Chardon Lakes is not going to disappoint. It has excellent fairways, well kept (and plentiful) sand traps, and challenging greens. You’re doing well if you two putt. The rates I paid online saved a bunch on green fees. Pace of play is great. Played 18 holes in a little over three hours on a Saturday afternoon. I have never felt rushed or had to wait much.
First time, but not the last!
I am so spoiled now that I've played at Chardon Lake, its an awesome course!!!
Carson Lakes
Wonderful condition, great service, terrific value. They obviously care about their course and pace of play.
Best starter we've had all season!
Best round of golf this season! Extremely friendly starter who was kind enough to send us out ahead of a group of 4 -3's! Course is in excellent shape! Can't wait to play again!
FALL DAY AT CHARDON LAKES
The course was in very good shape. The green are challenging. Some holes are open and straight froward. Some are very interesting with blind shots and position requirements. The greens held shots very well.
A good time
Course was in good shape the greens were running smooth and true with some speed...pace of play got real slow on the back
Unfortunate experience
I went to play with my wife and son who was visiting from New York and likes to play golf when he visits. I payed for 3 nine hole rounds knowing that my wife would play very little but wanted to come along and we would need 2 carts. After teeing off on the first hole we were approached by a ranger and told that my son could not play without having his own clubs and that we would need to rent a set of clubs for him. I admit I was very irritated as we have played at 4 other local golf courses without my son having his own clubs without incident. I don't agree with the policy but understand why they have the policy. This occurred at 3 PM on labor day so the course was was not busy. So I went back to the clubhouse and was informed that it would cost $40 to rent the clubs for 9 holes. That I could not justify in any manner. Thats just too much. This isn't South Beach or Myrtle Beach. So I did not play but lost the $10 convenience fee paid to Golf Now. I very much like the course and will go there again. But I think that management should certainly review the policy and cost of renting clubs.
Good shape!
Played on the golf now rate. Very happy to play there for the cost. Usually over $50 on the weekend. A little pricey for the shape and pace of play at this course. Our experience was fantastic. Would always go back with the golf now rate.

The course was in perfect shape. The price was fantastic. Even playing behind a league was not too slow.
