Too much for the money

At $50 per person, I expect great conditions. Course needed water no ranger. Was told after playing nine holes that we were supposed to play back side, first. Got put between league on the turn. No watering of course. Dry hard conditions, nice layout but confusing if you haven’t played before.

Disappointed at the price.

Many other choices at that rate.

Valley of Eagles morning round

Course was in excellent condition. Can be a little confusing for first time players to find their way between holes. Staff was friendly and welcoming. I try to play here at least twice a year and will definitely be back.

Needs time.

I played this course last year and could tell it was a young course and needed time to mature. This year it has had some time to mature, the holes near the road are in the best condition where as some holes in the back were not. The only gripe I have is that the rough is so high that if you hit it off the fairway you mind as well have been in the high grass. Very hard to find ball needs to be trimmed.

The Valley is Dry!

Reviews during this time is tough because the club can't offer their normal amenities. In olden days course would have been closed d]ue to amount of rain over past week, but the new Valley is dry, amazingly. Roughs are still wet, and greens a bit on the sow side, but certainly nothing to complain about on a beautiful Memorial day. Nice professional staff, which are putting 1p/cart & prepping the carts. I dislike all the parallel holes, but the "new" ones are pretty cool, like par5 #18 or 13 & 14 --I do not like #15 (sob!). Keep it in the fairway & have fun @ VoE. Thanx to GN for the Hot Deals special on Memorial Day 2020.

Best in Elyria!

Easily the best public course in Ohio with potential to be a destination type course in a few years. Great layout, some challenging holes, and nice views. Appreciate how the course is not entirely flat like a lot of NE Ohio courses. I’m looking forward to seeing how this place continues to improve over the next few years...

Ok

I guess you are paying for the views. The course is very challenging. Staff is friendly, however due to COVID the pro shop doesn’t offer anything, ie golf balls, pencils etc. Greens were good.

The best public course in Cleveland

I fell in love as soon as I pulled in but after about 5 holes I knew this place was worth every penny. The course is challenging but very fun and the greens are amazing. Barry is the head pro and is around the course and always has a smile on. Amazing course can't wait to be a member

Great course, questionable par 3’s

Probably the best course on west side of Cleveland for the price. Very fun, great layout, awesome views. Only questionable part of the course is having two par 3’s that play 250+ yards and one that is only playing 100 yards. Should even those out. Otherwise fantastic

Course was very wet due to all the rain in the area so far this season. The back tees are in bad places making certain holes unplayable and what’s the point of having a 270+ yard par 3 and one 250? Besides the back tees being far to unforgiving and the next set of tees up seemingly not enough of a challenge, I would like to try the course again when it dries out somewhat.

Great Layout...Not in the Greatest Condition

Valley of the Eagle has great potential because the course layout is great & challenging but the course conditions on multiple wholes is less than desirable due to poor drainage. The staff is friendly and they have a great restaurant but they fact that their cart paths are made of dirt and are filled with ruts so at times I didn't know if I was in a golf cart or a bumper car. I have faith that as the course matures and they figure out the drainage & cart path this will be one of the Top public tracks in NE Ohio.

Great New Course!

The course was in great shape, greens were rolling incredibly fast and healed from aerification earlier in the year. Leaves were clean and the grounds crew was busy keeping things looking great. Will be back again next year!
