Chippewa Golf Club

About
Established in 1926, Chippewa Golf Club in Curtice is one of the area's oldest courses. The course was designed by Toledo native Harold Weber, who was a four-time Ohio amateur champion and the city's first famous golfer. The layout has retained its traditional design and feel characterized by tree-lined fairways and small greens framed by strategically placed bunkers. In addition to the bunkers, there are two creeks that wind along the length of the golf course, coming into play on 15 holes. Golfers should be prepared for some tricky carries on the water holes. Though there are some holes that will make you think, Chippewa is a classic layout that players of all skill levels can enjoy. There are five sets of tees to make it even more approachable.

Nice course, slow green, but be aware of rude driver
This was the second time I played on this course, and had been two years since I first played here. The first time I played here was during one of my former colleague’s memorial outing, and I only learned to play golf for less than 6 months. You can imagine how the game went for the first time. I literally acted as a bystander to watch my teammates playing scramble since I couldn’t contribute anything but fishing balls in the ponds and creeks.
As a result, I sought to challenge the course again after my handicap dropped to 14 this year. Well, the “revenge” didn’t went well as I planned. The green was kind of slow, even slower than the slowest course I played before. For the approaching shots, I couldn’t rely on the green to extend the ball rolling, instead I have to club up by one to assume the carry distance + 5 yards as the total distance.
However, my golf lessons on using fairway wood and driver finally paid out, and I had the confidence to drive over the hazards instead of bailing out. I would wish I could eliminate all those 3 putts or 4 putts to improve my score significantly.
One incident occurred when I was teeing up for a 200 yard par 3 along the highway, some rude countryman drove by horned on purpose since he’s the only car on the road at that time, but I still managed to drive the ball on green despite the noise he made.
The pace of this course is very fast, it did add additional pressure to the game, which may not be a bad thing,
Overall I enjoyed the course in a wonderful afternoon, I will evidently come back again when I feel my skill is improved.
Fun, affordable course
Been here multiple times. Nice laid back atmosphere, course in great shape. Overall a great place to golf
ANOTHER NICE DAY
COURSE WAS IN DECENT SHAPE CONSIDERING WE HAVEN'T SEEN RAIN FOR A WHILE. STILL NICE TO BE OUT THERE!
My round at Chippewa
Had a great time really enjoyed the course the negative is the tee boxes they were in need of a little TLC.
On the road to recovery
I had been 'a regular' at Chippewa for a few years. That is, until June. The course, especially the greens were showing sign of neglect. So I decided that I wasn't going to continue to play the course until something changed.
Well, after two months I had heard from someone that there had been some changes. I decided to go back to see for myself. The condition of the tee boxes and greens were improving. The fairways were, once again, well maintained. It appears 'the changes' made have begun to make a difference. Thank you guys!
Beautiful Day On The Course
Course was in good shape. I just need to get better!
Pace of play needs work
This was my second time playing Chippewa and while I enjoyed the course overall, there are some things that need attention. The course layout was pretty straight forward, however there were 2 areas of confusion for me. There needs to be a sign or something indicating which direction hole 4 was located. I had to make an educated guess. The 2nd, and most confusing is where holes 12, 17 & 18 seemingly intersect. There were signs, arrows etc. but it did seem to be a very congested area. My main concern is the pace of play which was terrible. This is a public course and we are not professionals, but having to wait 10-15 minutes to tee off at every tee box seems excessive to me. There needs to be a Marshall/Ranger to move things along. Those complaints aside, I like the course and would recommend to a friends
GREAT TIME
Overall everything went well. The course looked clean and ready for play. Now all I have to do is get better!
GOOD TIME
Course was in good shape. Looked well kept and manicured. Now all I need to do is get better :(.
Greens were in rough shape. Likely due to being so early in the season. There were a couple 6 person groups which was kind of annoying but otherwise a pretty good time.
I would like a refund.
I visited Chippewa golf club on November 10th, but the club was closed and I was unable to play.
I contacted you about this last week and asked for a refund but have not received any response.
I would like a refund as soon as possible.
It was closed.
On November 10th,I visited Chippewa golf club at the reserved time, but it was closed.
Please refund me.
Always Enjoy Playing at Chippewa
I like playing at Chippewa. Fun course...the front 9 plays different than back 9.
Beautiful Day to Golf!
Course is a nice country course. Looks like greens became a little burnt out with the summer drought. Some patches of grub damage as well. Good value for the money.
Going downhill
I played this course in the 90s. It was horrible.
I gave it a try again about 8 years ago. It had been refurbished and was great. What I saw last week was disturbing. The greens were terrible. We had a hot spell recently , but you don’t let the greens go like that. I will probably give it a try again in the spring, since I have enjoyed the course a lot over the last eight years. I heard they lost their greens keeper recently. If so, they need to replace with a quality greens keeper. Don’t let this gem go down the tubes.
