Rating 71.8

Chippewa Golf Club in Doylestown sits just a few minutes south of Akron. It's one of the area's most popular public courses. Opened in 1962, the golf course has a traditional layout that sprawls across rolling hills. The undulating landscape provides a variety of elevation changes that range from subtle to dramatic. Accuracy is key since mature trees frame most of the holes and the massive, contoured greens also present a challenge. If you can keep it in the fairway, there are some great birdie opportunities on the par 5s. Overall, Chippewa Golf Club is player friendly enough for all skill levels to enjoy with the exception of the treacherous 14th, 15th, and 16th holes. This trio, nicknamed the "Bermuda Triangle," will test the putting skills of even the best golfers.

Hidden gem

I love playing this course…it’s always in great shape and it’s great for multiple skill levels. As a 13 handicap, I play the white tees from 6100+. If you want to be more challenged or are a lower handicapper, you can play the tips from 6800+.

Well Manicured, They Really Care!

Jumped on the last spot for a hot deal for early Saturday morning. They had sausage and egg sammies being prepared fresh when I walked in the door. Met up with three great guy I didn’t know and had a great time. Very few if any areas on the course that weren’t perfectly cared for. From tee box to green and everything in between, pristine. Take away the power lines running through this course and it is one of the best in Ohio. Since we started very early we had a nice 4 hour round. Only complaint possible would be the range balls spilling over on number 11 weren’t picked up yet. Great time!

Best course in Greater Akron area

Would play here every week if I could. Course beautiful, challenging, and always well kept. Price is about what I’d expect for a course like this. Worth every penny. Pace of play can be a bit slow at times, but nothing excruciating like Brookledge.

Would recommend 10/10

Great Conditions

Course Played great. Was in really good condition.

The rough was a little shorter than we are used to seeing, but was deceptively tough to get out of.15,16,17 really is the Bermuda Triangle.

Beautifully maintained course

Moderately busy for a weekday morning. Pace was just a little slow at times. Course is impeccably manicured. Back 9 is more difficult. A little pricier than other courses, but you get what you pay for. Carts have the latest technology and the most plush seats we've ever experienced. Staff are all very friendly. Nice club house with amenities.

A beautiful day at a great golf course.

The course was in very good shape, but could use some water (rain) to soften the greens.

Slow players ahead of our group was the major negative. It should not take 5 hrs to 18 holes.
