Rating 73.3

Roses Run Country Club is touted as being northeast Ohio's toughest public golf course. The course has an interesting mix of holes from lengthy par 4s to tough par 3s and reachable par 5s. The front nine is a traditional links layout while the back nine hugs the Cuyahoga River with winding fairways that melt into fast, sloping greens. The layout incorporates a variety of elevation changes ranging from subtle to dramatic. There are also water hazards and strategically placed bunkers coming into play throughout. Roses Run Country Club will require some creative shot-making and the use of every club in your bag. It's a formidable layout that will test even the most skilled players. There is a driving range and practice putting green you can use for warming up, which might be a good idea before taking on this tough course.

Course backup- pace of play

Pace of play and tee times don't seem to matter here. Hole 1 had 3 people at the tee box. Hole 3 which is the first par 3 we had about a 20 minute wait to hit. Round took 5 hours 30 minutes on a Saturday - starting at noon. Really kills your game and your whole day honestly. Greens had been plugged but that is normal for most courses this time of year.

Only 9 holes open

They only had the back nine open because they just aerated the greens on the front nine. That would’ve been nice to know when booking it and the whole golf course on the back nine was aerated fairways tee boxes and greens with sandfill everywhere. Putting on the greens was a waste of time and a lot of bad bounces in the fairway from the aeration holes. The scenery and the layout of the course is beautiful and quite a few of the holes are really challenging

Agitated

We booked day before and were not informed about course conditions. We were forced to play the back nine twice,the greens were arrayed and were charged full price. Drove 50 mins and had to settle for terrible circumstances.

Had I known

I understand it’s Fall in Ohio and most courses will start to perform maintenance. It just would’ve been nice to know that I would be playing the back nine twice when I purchased the 18 holes. This was due to the front 9 being shut down for maintenance. Also, would be nice to know ahead of time that the 9 I’m playing twice has already just been aerated.

Backed up

I had a tea time for 248 and when I arrive I had four different foursomes at the first tee. It was terribly backed up and had to leave after the 7th hole due to other plans I had made.

Had the same issue yesterday as well, booked 18 at 12:24 and then left after a 3 and a half hour front nine. Didn’t even bother trying to get a refund. Sadly used to play this course weekly but it’s not worth having 6-7 hour rounds. Maybe I’ll try them again next year.

Highly Recommended

Great layout- this course will make you think. Very friendly staff. My group had an excellent experience.

Pace of play was the only concern but that is simply a byproduct of the layout. Play slows down due to the combination of challenging Par 3s, some short Par 4s, and Par 5s that can be reached in two.

Good riding course

If you like to walk look elsewhere. In a housing development so lots of white stakes and golf cart riding. That said, the back 9 has some holes as challenging as anywhere. Cool track.

Good challenging track

A shot maker’s course. Knowing the layout is very helpful. If you know it, scoring is very possible. Tee boxes need some love but the rest of the course was in good shape. Not many courses have yardage books anymore...if they had one here, it would be very helpful.

Needs a ranger

Personally play this course once a week at minimum. The pace of play these past two weeks has been atrocious. I was on the course for 5 hours and had gotten through 13 holes. Tee boxes are in rough shape but overall course in good shape. The staff when we left was all college kids so I was definitely not going to complain on them, however they need to not overbook or get a ranger to maintain pace.

It’s golf, but...

The course has some pretty bad drainage to the point that you’re driving through a lot of muck even on the cart path. A little bit of construction on one of the holes, which is understandable. Overall though, it’s tough not to have fun golfing and we did. The slow pace let us talk a bit and gave me the opportunity to get a few pointers to improve my game. I think at the end of the day I’ve heard better stuff about other places nearby than what I experienced here.

Challenging

First time playing here. Course is challenging and fun. Front 9 is easier than the back. Certain areas were really wet from the sprinklers but overall a good time.
