Sneaky!

Don't be put off that it is a 9 hole course! Forced carries and deep green side bunkers make this a formidable track. Pro was helpful and gave me a cheat sheet with tips for each hole. Will play this course often!

What hidden Gem!!! Exceptional customer service

Course conditions are awesome. Starter went way beyond in customer service. When I arrived at the course there was a large group teeing off. The starter let me go to #4 ahead of the groups and then I played the 1st three holes. If not for his actions it would have taken 2-3 hours to play the nine holes.

Wonderful course.

The process was fast and we had no problem when checking in. We rode carts for our nine holes and had a great time on a beautiful course. Not for the faint of heart or elderly though.

Golden age architecture, nice conditions

This is a former private club in between Streetsboro and Kent. It is an excellent example of the Golden Age course architecture, feels very much like a Donald Ross course. Course was designed by Sandy Alves, who worked for Ross before designing several courses in the area. Keep the ball below the hole, extreme back to front slope on several holes.

The conditions were good, greens were a slower, because of the severity of slope on the greens. Pace of play was about average. Its a nicer nine hole course, but I think Golf Advisor high ratings is based on and compared to other nine hole courses. Many other local 18 courses much more superior in design and equal in conditions.

Even though this is an affordable nine hole course, I was told it was not junior friendly, just be aware.

3rd time playing this year and the conditions continue to get even better!!

The staff is wonderful both in the pro shop and on the course. This course is a hidden gem! The fairways and greens are as good as any private country club out there!!! It is well worth the drive.

Nice 9 hole course!

Nice 9 hole course that is maintained fairly well. Staff very friendly and helpful. Serves beer and drinks, but was not prepared with any food at 9am in the morning. Two putting greens, but no pro shop or driving range. 9 holes with a cart for $11, well worth it!

Challenging Course

The course layout was very challenging. Very fast greens. A few greens could be called unfair because of the slopes, but was fun

Interesting topography!

Very nice and interesting 9-hole course! Up and down hills, with approach shots to some greens with plenty of back-to-front slope - stay below the hole or you'll struggle on the greens. Enjoyable 9 holes, played in 1 hour, 45 min.

Excellent 9-Hole Play

Can't say enough good things about this hidden gem in the Cleveland-Akron area.

Course is in pristine condition, especially for this time of year.

One of the best 9-hole courses in the State.

Much Improved

Course was in much better shape than 3 years ago when I first played it. A very good layout by Sandy Alves. Green are heavily sloped, mostly front to back, so stay below the pin.
