Too many unsupervised kids

The course would be more enjoyable if they wouldn’t let groups of little kids and teens sharing 1 bag play on a Sunday afternoon. Terrible pace, no ranger, nobody fixes divots or marks on the greens.

Currently under repair

Alot of the course is currently under repair as they are making upgrades throughout the property. Hole 10 is usually a Par 5 but they are playing it as a Par 3 currently in order to repair the rest of the hole.

Otherwise always a great course to play if you have the opportunity to.

Back on Track

New management is doing an excellent job of reviving this classic course. One of the best layouts in NE Ohio. Brand new bunkers and drainage is much better than before. Excited to see how the course looks in the summer. Highly recommend!

Open during construction

Nice course that is undergoing major renovations to pro shop and on course. Easy to play around so not a major issue. The new amenities will be fantastic.

Classic Cleveland Course

Course is in very good shape. A few rough spots here and there but greens were excellent. Fairway lies a bit tight.

Tanglewood has become a goat track :(

We have been playing Tanglewood for years. Unfortunately, it has deteriorated into a goat track. It should be a crime to let such a landmark course end up this way.

We played it about 3 months ago and it was in horrible shape. We decided to give it one last try yesterday and unfortunately it was in even worse shape.

The fairways vary from baked clay hard pan to casual water mush with plus balls. Hole #10 was one of the more memorable examples of this, with a great drive that plugged 2 inches below the ground in an isolated wetland in the middle of the fairway that was followed with a well hit wedge that bounced and rolled forever like the fairway had been paved.

The rough and fairways are dying with bare spots and weeds taking over the course.

The sand traps have no sand typically in many area, so take a drop or ruin an edge hitting of the exposed gravel in the traps.

You may not be able to get a tee into the tee box without using a hammer or a predrilled pilot hole.

The greens had been heavily watered at times and areas with resulting gross inconsistencies in speed, break, and ball behavior on chips and approach shots.

It appears that the course has not been fertilized, weeded, insect control, aerated in some time.

The worn, dated clubhouse is well, exactly that.

It looks like the plan is to sell or close it. A surprising strategy when most courses are still having record profitable years.

The staff seemed friendly enough, but we had no desire to be there anymore and will not return until reliable friends report that it is back to its former glory.

Some may think that I was a bit hard on the course with my comments, but given the poor conditions vs what the very good condition were in previous years, I think it was appropriate to be honest and report accordingly.
