Easily one of the top courses in the area

This is a premium golf experience in NEO. It has some of the most unique holes in the area and fantastic scenic views. You will need every club and shot in the bag.

Greens had recently been aerated and it had rained quite a bit in recent days. Even with the rain, I only saw a few puddles. The pace of play was slow, due to one foursome. Several twosomes went off after them and on some tees two or three groups were waiting. My group formed a foursome to try and slow down, but we were still waiting on all the tees. Because of the quality of the course its not as painful compared to other courses.

Great course if you don't mind the bugs

For some reason this course has these little nats/flies that seem to just be every where.

Course was in great shape - some bunkers need attention. Just wondering about the Maple course - never seem to get to play that one - always river/lake courses

I would pay triple and it'd still be a deal!

Wow! It was PERFECT!!! Everybody treated me with excellent service. The course was wet because of heavy rain, but it was so well manicured, it didn't matter. I haven't played there since 2002, but I will play again very soon! Thanks to the staff out there that made it a great day!

Outstanding

What a great golf course. Challenging layout fast greens, lush fairways. A real treat. One of the best golf courses in N. E. Ohio. Only negative I can say is that the bunkers need some work. Grass growing in some of them by the edges. Besides that it is an awesome track. I will be back.

Challenging good value track. Goofy par fives.

The course is one if the best we played during out 9 day stay in the Cleveland area. All the holes are lovely and challenging. 2 of the par fives. Especially the first are a bit goofy since oddly placed trees prevent a clear shot to the green from outside of 100 yds.

Top value and would highly recommend. A bit stingy on the practice balls although they include 20 or so. The facilities are basic with no locker facilities.

Definitely in my top 3 in the area. Would love to play here more. Worth every penny. Very challenging course. #4 is one of the best holes ive ever played. Can't wait to go back and hopefully do better next time.

Excellent course to play

Staff very friendly and accommodating. The course was "private club" condition. I would recommend this course, but bring your A game or you will shoot a 93 like I did, seriously a great course to play for all levels.

One of My Favorites

Fowler's Mill is one of the top public courses in NE Ohio. The layout is beautiful and you will use every club in your bag. There are a lot of trees., but fairways are not too narrow. Fairways were in nice shape even after a lot of rain. Greens are tough to read, but they are fair. Clubhouse food was good and all staff were pleasant. This course is not for a beginner.

This course was very well maintained

The greens and fairways are in great shape and is a great challenge to play. However, they need to improve on their starter process as we played as a twosome but apparently the other twosome did not show. No one came to tell us to play as a twosome so we finally did on our own. But there was another two twosomes behind us and only multiple foursomes ahead. The starter should have paired us up. I play a lot of different courses in the area (20+) that are in similar shape but the green fees are much less so this course is not a good value. There are so many members that the course always plays very slow. I am glad I can say I played this course but I will not be a repeat customer.

Best public course in Greater Cleveland

Course was in immaculate condition. All kinds of different holes. Challenging but fair. I've played pretty much every public course in the Cleveland area and Fowler's Mill, when you combine course layout, conditions and difficulty, is the best...hands down, discussion over.

Challenging and scenic

Tee to green were great conditions. Challenging hole designs with forced carries to elevated greens. Clubhouse personnel were VERY friendly.

Bunkers needed work.

Great Experience

Played with my sons on Fathers Day. Pace of play was slow, but it could have been due to Fathers Day. Otherwise, a great place to play. I will definitely play there again.

Pete Dye written all over it!

The turf conditions were impeccable throughout.
The undulating greens were challenging.
Lost a few balls in the rough. This slowed our play. I blame it on hitting to incorrect areas because of lack of course layout knowledge. Clubhouse was fantastic and a bit nostalgic. I wish that I lived closer.

Still a great course!

The course was in great shape. Greens were rolling quicker than they looked. All in all, a real treat to play this course at a very reasonable rate.
