Roses Run Country Club
About
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.

Golfer Reviews
Very good course
I have played this course several times. Pretty good layout. Some of the holes are close to the houses but not many, Back nine is more challenging but very scenic. The course could use another set of tee boxes. There is one at 6100 yards and next is 5000.
6100 is too long for me and 5000 too short.
The course was in good condition for November, however the greens had been aerated a couple weeks before but not rolled and cut recently.
Great Value
Hadn't played the course in 10 years or more but it still a good track for all level of players. The course itself was in very good shape and the price was excellent.
Course conditions were very,very good considering the lack of rain, Back 9 was very challenging
1st time playing this course and it was worth the 100 mile drive. Greens and fairways were in great shape. The entire course winds through neighborhoods so there is very little room left or right. The par 5 #12 is extremely challenging. The green on par 3 #17 is totally unfair unless hole was located on lower left tier of the green. The greens were fast but true.Will definitely recommend to friends.
Fast greens
Course condition was in the pretty good shape.. The greens are pretty hard and super fast!! And don't missed hits because the houses are all over the course!! All and all its was pretty fun course..
Roses Run
Fun course in very nice condition. For those who complain about pace of play. Give your fellow golfers a break. Hole's 12 / 13 / 14 (Hail Mary Corner) will challenge the best of players. So expect a delay there. Overall, this course has made our groups must play again rating.
Favorite course
Love this course. So disappointed with pace of play. 4 hrs to reach the 13th hole. Young staff ranger bypassed the 4 some that was holding up everyone.
Great Cource/Excellent Condition
Couldn't have asked for anything better from the late AM breakfast to the course conditions to the pace of play. 3 of us finished our round in 3 1/2 hrs. What more could you ask for on a beautiful July day.
Nice layout
Pretty decent course. Challenging layout, but not very well maintained.
Course is a bit tired
We have played this course several times, but not for the last two years. We were a bit disappointed. The carts are old and our cart cover was dirty and torn. The tee markers were not painted and, in the case of the forward tees, sometime non-existent. Pace of play was slowed by a foursome two groups ahead of us and there were no starters or rangers on the course to move things along. Nonetheless, the course is challenging with an interesting layout. Hopefully, the owners will pay more attention to the details.
Not what I expected
We were very disappointed in the condition of the course. The greens were in questionable condition with a lot of bad spots for whatever reason. We live in North Canton and can play much nicer courses that are not as far. We checked in to the pro shop and were told to check in with the starter. We never saw the starter and not at the turn either. We just did our own thing. We played with 2 other fellows who also booked thru golfnow
Roses Run
One of the more unique courses in town. Has a links feel on a lot of holes. Not many trees so course is exposed to the elements a lot. Greens have a lot of contour. Course is relatively short...but front side has a lot of houses. Was featured in golf digest as one of the top courses to hit a house. The back side has a lot of nice views along the river...beware number 12 the difficult par 5. The course was a race horse breeding farm back in the day. Still has the old race horse theme. Cool club house and good parties on the patio in the summer. Drive range is lacking.
Nice Course
This was a very nice course. The pace of play was really good. Fairways and greens were flawless. The course layout is appealing, particularly the 12th hole.
Failing. From the beginning. Sad.
The course has never been able to get it together. Condition is ok for a public course. Tees and greens are ok at best. Several holes are laid out with no vision or creativity. Not sure how this course stays in business. I don't know anyone that would choose the course over many others in the area. If I lived in the neighborhood and had to pay dues, I would sue the course for the pathetic conditions. Maybe someone will take it over eventually and turn it into a decent course. Step one, STOP CHARGING SO MUCH! I'll never pay more than $30 to play three. It's been a while since I've played there and I can promise I won't be back anytime soon.
quirky layout
hard to play well on your first visit, lots of blind shots, blind doglegs, target greens. fairways that end but cant see they end from the tee box. Course in decent shape. Greens shaggy and slow. sandy tee boxes. fairways in great condition. very long drives between holes. DO not try and walk course.
No way up to CC standards
Was a very challenging course But overbooked( they should of had people in 4s, all 2s) tee boxes not nice and half of red tee boxes were hard to find because horseshoes weren't red ir not there. Mostly upset about slow play 5 1/2 hours. Some tees waiting behind 4 golf carts
Part of the course was chained off??
I went to play this course on friday. Enjoyed the round but when I went to play the back nine, 3 holes where chained off. Payed for 18 hole but only could play 15. Very upsetting as they never mentioned part of the course would be locked up.
Always a good test of your skills
Enjoy this course and play often. Very challenging and you will use most of your clubs in the bag. Played a couple weeks after aeration and the greens were in good shape. Come out and enjoy the course.
Surprise
Golf now will likely point fingers and not take blame for a very unfortunate experience. The back nine of the course was closed to maintain the greens. My daughter and I each drove over an hour to meet at the course. She had never been there and I was anxious to play the WHOLE course with her. Surprise...my only option was to play the front twice! Pre paying when the facts are not revealed is not acceptable!
Course is beautiful and challenging.
Roses Run is a beautiful course and very challenging. The par 5's are a real challenge that will test your accuracy.
