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.

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.

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
