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.

Excellent Value
Paid $10 for 18 and a cart. Greens make this course very challenging. Don't be above the hole.
Disappointed
disappointed in what we were told and our experience. we arrived as a twosome and were told they were extremely busy and we were going to be paired up. no big deal to us. when we got up to the tee, a single player was already ahead of us. as we headed for the back nine, they had started numerous twosomes ahead of us which slowed play and we had the twosome behind us hitting into us because they felt pressured by the ranger. overall bad experience. don't know if I will go back
Great course, challenging greens
Course in excellent conditioner! As always lots of challenging sloped greens!
Very nice course
Enjoyed the round very nice course and in great shape.
Very challenging greens.
The course is in very good shape. I would recommend black tees for golfers with length and low handicaps. The greens were very quick. And the greens slowed the pace of play for groups not wanting to pick up short puts.
Great course
Great course to play , do need to keep your pace of play up , cause some people will complain
First time...will be back!
What a great surprise! The course was gorgeous in spite of ALL the rain we've had. The 4some in front of us was slow but that's nothing to do with the course. Staff was so friendly!
Good Value on a beautiful day
Enjoyed a relaxed 18 w/ my son. The course was green and the greens were firm. With only a few golfers on the course we played in 3 1/2 including a pitstop for lunch.
Perfect playing conditions
Course was in excellent shape and what friendly people who worked there. Couldn't ask for a better round . Highly recommended.
Great Value
This course is close to private country club quality. The normal rates are a bit highish, but the deal we got online was excellent. My son is 8 and played the forward tees. They have 4 sets. There has been a ton of rain lately, but they were letting carts out on the front and it was in fantastic shape. The greens were near perfect. Pace of play wasn't too bad for a Saturday. Highly recommend this course.
Cracking course
Course is in fine condition. I played this course a year ago for the first time and decided to give it another go and I'm glad i did. This course has the feel of a private country club with out the snobby atmosphere. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The course is a challenge but is not impossible to play, it gives and it takes. I love the challenge and the set up, it makes you consider your drive wether to take driver or 3 wood or iron, a very risk and reward course. Greens were perfect. Loved it, will be back!
Excellent condition
Played as 3some. Course in excellent condition. Would play here again but kept having single players catch our 3some and it seemed rushed despite our pace of play.
Good course good deal
3 hour round; greens quick, challenging course with only a few holes that are tough on first timers
Great day for fall golf
Had a great time with my six year old! Although he wasn't playing the staff treated him very well. Thanks!
Great value
Course was in good shape even though the greens and fairways had been recently aerified. Very enjoyable course with a good mix of holes from realitively easy to challenging. Will definitely play again.
Great track.
This is a very fun course, and quite challenging. Good condition great value.
Same Old Chardon Lakes
I used to play this course for a golf league. We left and now play St. Denis. The staff at Chardon Lakes was rude, and the course was okay, but overpriced and overrated. I played a quick nine tonight for nostalgia - nothing has changed in five years. There are plenty of great courses in the area to choose from, but I won't try this one for another five years.
Excellent course layout
Many interesting hole layouts. Length from white tees very manageable for 12 hdc golfer. Greens very fast, true
Challenging greens but in excellent condition
Pace of play was worst I ever experienced. We started a little before noon and caught the 11:00 group by the seventh hole. They failed to let us play through and no rangers on the course. The result was hit and wait 5 minutes between shots. They need rangers on the course who monitor pace of play. It seems that many courses in northeast Ohio are unaware of the PGA attempts to improve pace of play. Other than that, this course was excellent.
FAST GREENS
this course was very nice and i got a great price.
its only downfall if any were the extremely fast greens
