One of the best values in Geauga County.

Layout is outstanding, conditions for the most part are excellent, a few holes had some rough spots. Management needs to maintain pace of play. Overall a real winner.

Great deal for 18

Course used to be private, still has the country club feel in some ways. The club house is dilapidated at best. The course had some wet areas in rough and fairways, but it's fall. The greens were amazing. BIG, FAST, lot of break. Great elevation changes. First time playing there, no markings on course, get a yardage book if they have one for blind shots. Most of the other players seemed like the "country club" type (both good and bad). Some holes have spectacular views and were a lot of fun to play. Great deal on GolfNow.com, if I can find it again I would definitely play again.

A challenging but fair course in pristine condition. A "Must Play" course.

You won't find better conditions on a public course. The layout is challenging but fair and the scenery is spectacular.

This course is somewhat challenging

I took a friend who shoots high 70's to low 80's and he loved it...wants to play there again. Greens were in great shape...It's not a driver, pitching wedge course..loved using almost all my clubs in the bag....Great for the price.

Greens were great.

Some of the best green conditions I've experienced all year. Course has some rough spots, but overall was pretty good. With a lot of o/b it's challenging if you're not accurate off of the tee. Overall I will go back.

Interesting Course

Lots of elevation changes at Tanglewood CC. Greens are in good condition and some are tough to read, but roll nicely. Wide variety of holes, and reachable par 5's even from the tips. Had a fun time.

Nice layout needs TLC

The tee boxes and parts of fairways were beat up. Hole 8's fairway was awful. However if given the same price, I would go back.

Well managed golf course, and making a comeback.

This course went sadly downhill several years ago, but the present management are doing a great job bringing it back to it's former great condition. It has some classic holes, particularly #6. One problem we encountered with 2 other players was handle quickly and decisively by the course management. Their dedication to giving players a good experience is very obvious. Highly recommended!

Good, and getting better every time I play there.

Conditions are very good. Traps are in much better shape. Greens are smooth and fast. People are very accommodating.
Price is right too.

Fun, tricky layout

My buddy and I played Tanglewood on Saturday, 8/10, and had a blast. Except for the 8th and 10th fairways the course was in solid shape. As long as the greens roll nice I am happy and they sure did. Since we were a twosome, groups were polite and we played thru no problem. Staff was great and so was the experience.

Pleasantly surprised

I had not played here before. It was a last minute choice. Driving by a few holes on the way in I thought it looked like it was short on real estate but once I started playing it I found I was wrong and there is plenty of room for a golf course. There are striking elevation changes and the layout takes advantage of the natural surroundings. There are a few holes where a little local knowledge will go a long way in avoiding an unseen creek or dog leg. A great value.

Ragged condition

This course has numerous holes playing through a creek valley and hence it floods easily. The low lying holes were in poor condition; however, numerous other holes had drainage/flood problems; e.g. seemed like a majority of the traps were in bad shape (and it has not rained in a week).
Warning: do not keep your hands on the steering-wheel when driving on/across the 17th fairway--you could break your wrist.
This is a tight course (now over-grown) and the greens have too much slope to be cut at today's Stimp-meter readings.

Faded glory. No lomger country club quality.

Some patchy fairways. Greens need some work. Signage leaves something to be desired. Scorecard not helpful. Assumption seems to be that you have played frequently and thus know the course.

Excellent course layout with lots of elevation changes.

This is a great course. Not maintained the same way as when it was private but a good value for the prices they have today. If you have not played Tanglewood you should.
