Rating 70.8

Brookledge Golf Club sprawls across more than 120 acres of gently rolling hills and mature woodlands. The course is an Arthur Hills design and considered one of the finest public golf courses in northeast Ohio. Originally opened in 1988, the course later underwent a major renovation that included the installation of a new aeration system and the replacement of all the sand traps. The golf course is challenging with trees lining the fairways and framing the greens, leaving little room for error off the tees or on the approaches. The greens are subtly elevated and well protected by mounding and bunkers. Brookledge Golf Club's tricky putting surfaces have mild undulations that can cause subtle breaks in putts. Trees play a more prominent role on the back nine, especially on the closing holes.

Late March Review

I was able to get out on the course first this Sunday morning. Rain was predicted, but it was clear and calm. Despite all of the rain and snow we had received the course was fairly dry. Not once did get into a spot where it was soggy enough to swallow my shoes. The Fairways and rough were in mid-season shape. The greens were inconsistent and bumpy, but with the recent weather, not that surprising.

This course is one of my favorites in the area because it is beautiful and fun to play. Not the longest course, and not extremely difficult, but I never walk away feeling like I is missing something. This is probably due to the Arthur Hills design, which gives your eye many different looks from the tee. One of the best maintained public courses around, I cannot wait to play it again during the golf season.

BROOKLEDGE

It is a nice coures, but was very busy. The tees were not managed well as it took us almost 3 hours to play the first nine and only completed a couple holes on the second nine. they had us start on hole 10.

the price we paid for was not much less than their winter rate so it was not a good value as we did not complete the entire 18 holes.

Course conditions were good. Greens very inconsistant

Starter was friendly but ground crew would disregard golfers during when they are hitting. Course conditions were decent but greens need some work. Many of the greens needed cut and were very,very slow. Others were cut and much faster.

Nice Improvements

I had a very enjoyable experience. The course was in great shape. I hadn't been there since all the improvements. The deep bunkers gave the course a more difficult championship course appeal.

Greens

I like the course but last week the greens were in poor condition. #10 didn't look like it was mowed and several others had bad ball marks and spotty grass.

8/7/16 visit``

staff most friendly, course is nice shape-but the pace of play was very slow for our twosome....

pace of play often times very slow at Brookledge. Marshall out on course, but he did not seem all that interested in moving play along

We paid for 18, but left after 9- several holes with 4 groups at tee thru green

Great course, Friendly staff, tough undulating greens

Great design and layout. very fair and fun tee to green. The greens are very undulating and fast on may greens. Perhaps too much slope to be considered a course to play tournament golf on. Staff is great. Practice facilities are great. Club house is simple with nice food and beverage selections. Front nine is very hilly and challenging to walk . Back nine is more walkable. The only real downside of this course is slow play on weekend play times. it has taken me 6 hours to complete a weekend round. pick the not busy time for a better playing experience. overall great course.

Excellent course

I played on what I expected to be a busy Sunday afternoon, but the pace of play was outstanding. No delays at all. The course is extremely well maintained. It is a bit pricey, so try to book a hot deal. I played for $30 for a day that usually would cost $47. I will continue to play this course throughout the summer as long as I can keep booking hot deals!

As a local player I have found myself playing here more often than any other place in the area because it is well maintained, operated and groomed. Water drains very well so a rainy morning will not keep you off the course in the afternoon. The bunkers are well maintained and the greens typically roll fast and are highly underrated. The staff is always friendly and helpful and the practice area is maintained at a high level for a public golf course.

Excellent course

One of my favorite layouts in the area. Great value too. You can play on a weekend afternoon for about $25 for 18 and a cart. Beautiful golf holes and a good challenge lead to a great day of golf. Greens are beautiful, very undulated, and fast. Quite difficult to hole a putt from outside of 10 feet. The course has some length as well if played from the tips. They aerated the greens the on 3/7/2016, with the smaller holed aerator and sanded the greens. Even with the holes, the greens are still fast and true.

They have a large driving range as well.

Mitigating factors are always relevant.......

Per reviews that I had read on GolfAdvisor and recommendations of people I had met, I decided to book a round at Brookledge Golf Club and found a rate that I couldn't pass on.
After making the 50 minute ride to Cuyahoga Falls from Westlake, I found out that the back nine was closed for aeration. I was disappointed but not upset because in Northeast Ohio, it is that time of year. I would be remiss if I didn't state that the pro shop offered to refund my purchase due to the aerification limiting my playing the front nine twice but I chose to stay and play. I took 25 minutes to warm up with a small bucket on their grass tee range. The practice range teeing area was in great shape and freshly mowed......kudos to the grounds maintenance personnel!
With regards to the course (front nine), I enjoyed the layout and was pleasantly surprised to find that there were very few areas of damp/soggy turf after the amount of precipitation that had fallen on the preceding Friday/Saturday and Sunday morning. If I did incur one of the aforementioned areas they were relegated to the rough. Bunkers were in really good shape as well.
The greens lived up to their reputation of rolling fast and true with undulation that needs more break accounted for than what you will read.
The pace of play was a little slower than that of my liking BUT, that was directly attributable to the fact that they were forced to send everyone out on the same nine due to the aerating of the back. Having noted this, I did have two groups ask and allow me to play through, as I was a single.
I was also extremely gratified by the amiable and professional demeanor of the staff members. The clubhouse is modest and comfortable with indoor/outdoor seating areas available and nice views of the course.
I plan on visiting Brookledge next Spring and I will recommend that others lend serious consideration in doing the same.
To those who feel that a golf course has to offer a minimum yardage of 6,700 yards to be considered a true test........you're wrong.
My thanks to all of the staffers at Brookledge Golf Club......I enjoyed my visit......!

Good Golf Experience

While a little on the short side (measuring 6300 yards from the longest tees), the course still presents challenges. Good bunkering (excellent sand), undulating greens (fast and true), and some holes in wooded areas. Fun course to play and presented an opportunity to score well. Would totally recommend it for any level of golfer.
