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.

Great Course/Lousy conditions

I've always love the layout of this course, but for the second time, the course was very wet, cart paths only, and very, very slow. Rough was was anywhere between 4" to 8". My playing partner and I lost at least a dozen golf balls on or near the fairways. It would have been nice to have a warning of cart path only on websites that offer tee times. To answer the above question of did I walk, the answer was more like yes & no. The cart didn't really get much use this time. This would've made a big difference. I couldn't finish the round because of all the walking. My back couldn't take it anymore. I will make sure that I call the next time before I make any tee times.

LOTS OF GRASS

In all fairness, the course did receive a lot of rain the day before which accounts for all the grass, but the pace of play and the confusion on who was on what hole on the back nine was terrible!

The bunkers were packed solid by the rain, which pretty much messed up the game. Enjoyed the day anyway with a new friend that I made there. Hope the course is better the next time, without the rain affecting it.

OK Round

Course was in good shape and it is a nice layout. Got behind a foursome that obviously had nothing else to do. Over 5 1/2 hours and no ranger ever.

never again

approaches hadn't been cut in a week the few fairways that were cut had piles of clippings not clumps but piles. Had to wait 20 minutes to tee off making the turn because the started was no where to be found when we teed off and no one told us we had to tee off on the back nine.The superintendent was the only one on their site without an email address (go figure) of course the general manager blamed it on the rain but every other course within a 15 mile radius was cut and not in the shape this course was in. I guess when your bankrupt you cant afford to mow the grass.

Good overall experience

Enjoyed playing the course was a good overall experience. I gave the course 4 stars for layout because a couple of holes have blind shots where it gets really tight but for the most part layout is good.

Nice Course

Nice course...I have played it several times. It was a very hot day and there is not water for the players on the course...they had cart person driving around but just we teed off at 2:30p. No rangers on course. We made the turn and group of 12 tried to tee off in front of us...no starter there to maintain the turn..

Good course. Great value

Love playing here. Great value and some tricky parts throughout the course. The par 3 #16 or #17 is the toughest hole. The course could use some better yardage markers but it is in solid shape.

Several Challenging Holes

I really like this course and play it as often as I can. Most of the time the pace of play is great, but every once in awhile it get backed up. Mostly because of those who miss their tee time and then want to go off in front of you at your time. I yield, but, I'm not going to anymore. I always abide by the rules, but I've had to get after some that I get teamed up with for violating them. One 23 yr old literally drove across the green! I yelled at him and he said, "Oh, I didn't even think about it.!" There seems to be a lot of rule violations and bad etiquette. The rough was a little knarly this time, but most of the time the course is in great shape.

What a hard time I had....

First I get over charged which was an accident but , I got a new hat out of this. Then I get out to the first hole couldn't hit the ball strait and when I got back in the cart I some how did not tighten my golf bag and it fell out of the cart and ruened some of my brand new not even a wk old clubs. I wanted to just Cray and go home but I stayed and golfed. Then the grass is so high I lost 10 golf balls just in the fairways. That was frustrating and a waste of time. I will be back to redeem myself !

a great course to play

It's been over a year since I've played, so Thursday was a real blessing! The staff seemed happy to see me, and were friendly to me. The course was a little high grass wise in the rough, but it had received a lot of rain lately. The day was just beautiful and the courses greens were very receiving. This is the course that I play the most. I enjoyed the day immensely!
