Loved it!

I loved golfing here! Definitely good for a challenge! Only thing is there is a lot of driving to get the the next hole sometimes, but no big deal, just a little odd of a set up but the staff was so friendly and very professional, loved the scenery and would definitely come back here and bring more people here!

Tough, but fair course.

Tough, but fair. That is the best way to describe it. Many holes require precision. If you miss, it could be trouble. The greens are very tough. If you can 2 putt, count it as a win.

Valley of the Eagles is a challenging layout in good condition. There are issues with cart paths and off fairway conditions, but overall it’s a fun and challenging course to play. Go Play

Great staff and great course. Need better course documentation on score cards or on tee boxes. First timers experience some confusion. I can’t wait to go back.

Phenomenal routing but there are serious issues

I’ve been meaning to play here for some time and finally did as my home course was closed for aerification. First off, this course should be charging double what I paid and use the funds to fix the absurdly bad cart paths which are literally a joke. That being said, I’m not sure I’ve played a better public course in North East Ohio. Greens and fairways are in as good of shape as a lot of the private clubs in Cleveland and the layout is actually better. The routing is nothing short of phenomenal with only a handful of bad or mediocre holes. Aside from 10, the par 3’s are almost too difficult from the middle tees for anyone that isn’t low single digit but the rest of the course is relatively short and fun with strategic shot value you just don’t see on public courses. The pace of play was brutal enough that I would normally have left after six holes but the course was good enough to keep me wanting to see the next shot. In a few years, with the right management and capital put in improving the cart paths, this place could be truly special. I will be back. Fingers crossed they don’t screw this up.

Great Value

Thursday morning round - great value. $40. No one pushing behind us. Starter Mike is a great guy, always explains everything to you. Clubhouse staff are nice too.

I see reviews saying that staff were rude, well observe basic golf etiquette, don't drive past the white sticks in the ground, and everything will be OK.

In the last 60 days, I have played probably 20 rounds of golf. Valley of the Eagles was in the best condition of any course I have recently played.

All around fantastic experience

I drove an hour to play here and I would absolutely do it again. There is no other track like it in Ohio. Very challenging course where shot selection matters. The course conditions were amazing. The staff was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. The pro shop, restaurant, and bar are all great as well. It truly was an incredible experience and I cannot wait to go back!

Slow play

Played the front 9 in 2.5 hours. Had to leave for other plans. Asked the pro shop for a back 9 rain check. Told me nothing they can do about it. Not one person on the course keeping playing moving along.

Great Course

Great course, set up very nice, The course is a "golfers" course, in that you need to think about your shot selection. Play within your abilities. Hit the shots you can control, know your distances, and not just spray and pray! That said the course is not tricked up to be difficult just for the sake of it. Nice risk vs reward set up.

The course if very well maintained, the staff is great, and through the Golf now app, was a very much worth the trip. Highly recommended, not just for this area, but work a drive to get here.

Real fun course

Unlike any other course I’ve played in the area, every hole is unique and presents it’s own individual challenge. Greens were especially challenging. Staff was helpful , friendly and accommodating and 15 minute tee times provided the best pace of play I’ve experienced in Covid era. The only complaint would be the cart paths but it’s a weak complaint. Overall a great course to try. I also ordered take out pizza from the wicked slice and took home, again outstanding.

Pure

What else can I say this place is everything it’s hyped up to be... pure. Bring a lot of balls you’ll need em. The course layout is somewhat whacky with sharp doglegs going into blind shots, so you’ll need a yardage card the first time playing. Other than that the scenery is to die for and takes away all the worries in the world(except when it eats your balls, that is)
