Located just 35 minutes from Cleveland, Little Mountain Country Club in Concord is known throughout the area for its bunkers. Deep hardly begins to describe them and they border both the greensides and fairways. Although the cavernous bunkers are challenging, they are strategically placed to provide a challenge for better golfers but there is still ample room for less advanced players. The intimidatingly steep walls go as deep as 20 feet below the putting surface, they are enough to scare even the most seasoned golfers. The layout has diverse mix of holes that require the use of all the clubs in your bag. Little Mountain Country Club finishes with a dramatic par 4 that is one of the golf course's most difficult holes. The five-star-rated Little Mountain is well worth the two-hour drive from Pittsburgh or Columbus.

Great course, great views, above average challenge

Course was beautiful, even know it rained the day before it drained really well. Only thing I was disappointed about were the bunkers. Bunkers were full of rocks and unplayable. Everything else was immaculate.

Don't waste your money

Arrived to play on August 2nd. No carts available because there was an outing going on. Finally got out and there were drunken people from the outing yelling and screaming on the course. One group even drove their golf cart onto the green.

The price we paid was higher than what I agreed to on line.

Bunkers filled with stones and it was so bad that as a group we decided to pull the ball out of the bunker to make sure no one was hurt by flying stones.

Pace of play was so slow that it took us over 6 hours to finish the 18.

We were looking forward to playing the course and I even had several people drive down from Lansing, Michigan to play the course. It was a disappointing day overall.

The course has nice fairways and greens are ok

The fairways and greens were in good shape considering how dry it has been. The greens are very unfair since many of the holes are on little mounds that require a putt at the perfect speed and line. Not good for novice players. The course has many sand bunkers but many of them are nothing but rocks or flooded and muddy from watering. They were so bad that I had to pull my ball out of them and play next to them! This has been this way for the past 3 years. If the course cannot maintain them then they need to fill them in or make grass bunkers.

Fun challenges on this course

The course has much improved greens conditions from last year. Fast, firm, consistent all around the course. Dry conditions on fairways due to weather. Biggest complaint is BEER PRICES - WAY TOO HIGH! Bunkers are cavernous - most are in process of being repaired so I think a little price reduction is in order. C'mon Jimmy!

As a senior member played early and the course was excellent. Played today 8/8 and was not as impressed.
Course was stressed due to the dry conditions.
Pace of play was miserable. Spoke to the ranger. He agreed. Left after nine and 2-1/2 hours later.
Any day playin golf is a good day ! Bunkers need to be addressed please !!

Over priced

Great layout! Horrible condition! Bunkers are a joke, the best sand is in the parking lot and on the greens. The greens are very inconsistent, and patchy at best. There is no way LM should be charging premium rates for a course in this poor of condition, and its been like this for a few years now. Based on the condition of other nearby courses no way LM should feel good about charging the $ they do!

Bankers are a mess

I've played Little Mountain 15 or so times over the years. The past several years the course was getting worse every year so I quit playing it. I heard it was better so I gave it another chance. The fairways and greens were better but the sand bunkers were all basically unplayable. Huge pools of water in many bunkers along with rocks and stones. The sand that was in the bunkers was old and non-playable. A 5+ hour round is unacceptable. They either need to spread out the tee times or have rangers to move people along. We had to wait on every shot which makes for a long day. The staff was nice but it hardly makes up for poor course conditions. It's a great layout and use to be in awesome shape, it's a shame they can't bring it back up to it's previous condition.

drain the water from the bunkers

we played 18 after it had rained for a few days. liked the course but the bunkers all had standing water in them. some of the bunkers were not finished being repaired or completed. the whole course was water logged. one worker had a squejee on one fairway. a portable sump pump would have solved the water problem.

Little Mountain not ready yet.

The rumors and stories are true. The coarse is in repair. The greens are recovering and there were a lot of places on the coarse I would have considered ground under repair. Still to have such a nice facility, CC atmosphere, free range time, and no one pushing behind you is well worth it.
Note: book t time online with them or whatever app you you use and save money.

Has great potential

First impression was staff was unfriendly not engaging . Starters were not helpful at all ... Grumpy guys . Outside bar staff was inattentive and slow. ( it wasn't that crowded. I wanted to purchase a club there was no selection at all to choose.
The course overall potential is huge. Great views and aesthetics. Greens are poor on most holes. Fairways were great. Obviously issues with bunkers . There were irrigation repairs that and equipment on course. It's a pretty place and close but get your people engaged and give customers and experience.

This course needs some work!

Little Mountain is a great course when it is properly maintained. The greens had been aerated and therefore were not the best. The sand traps are horrible and have been for the last two years.
Current course conditions should be posted, such as greens aerated and course under repair on the website.

Awesome Layout that gets no play in the fall apparently.

Played after a long time wanting to get up here to try it out. It definitely has the modern style golf design to it. The greens were firm and fast, I know some said they were terrible and others said they were great, but if there was a rough spot there was no pin near it. Really besides the bunkers, which they are in the process of renovating,, the course is as good of shape as you could expect a course in Ohio to be in the fall. I played in 2:20 as a single, mainly because of the difficulty of the course however some holes play 30 yards
+ shorter than the card with the downhill holes such as the last 450 par 4, but hit driver 280 (normally 250) then was left with 170 in fairly manageable I'd say. There are some really spectacular holes here and houses that will make you want to puke because they are so extravagant (none come into play). I made an hour drive to play and would do it again, hopefully I can bring some buddies back to play next time.

Great greens

Course seemed to be under reno, lots of bunkers had huge rocks in them which made them dangerous or unplayable.
Greens rolled true and fast, best part of the course.

No cart person on the course

Staff was just present, nothing special going on there.

Overall, as a tourist it's a great track to play, especially for the price! I paid $26 USD thru GN.

What happened to the 5 Star course I remember?

Little Mountain used to be an awesome experience. Not this time. The bunkers were unplayable. There had to be standing water in at least 80% of them. I played with another guy and we must have lost at least 6 balls in them!

The course is a great layout but the greens were just OK. The bunkers were shot! Cart path only made it a longer round. I think we both gave up scoring after the 4th lost ball bunker. Just try to enjoy the round without keeping score if you're going to play here anytime in 2014.

Even the 19th hole is different. Definitely not what it used to be!

A great layout but course is lacking in conditioning. Greens were not so good . Traps were an absolute disgrace. If course can not maintain traps they should eliminate 1/2 of the. This has not changed from 2 years ago. Very disappointed
