Chippewa Golf Club
About
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.

Plenty Challenging
Chose this course due to a great deal on Golf Now and equally because they were one of the few area courses not to have their greens aerated. Last four rounds played elsewhere in the area were all courses with punched / top dressed greens which while we know is necessary, it certainly detracts from the value and fun received. On this day, Chippewa's greens were as fast and challenging as any we've played all season -- and that includes a whole bunch of courses. Enjoy playing their "Bermuda Triangle" (14-15-16) and see if you can manage to emerge unscathed. My playing partner (a repeat player of this course) scored a PAR on 14 and admitted it was the first tiime ever he had accomplished that. Nice people, decent bar and food and a good pro-shop available.
Great Course
As always, course was in great shape, and staff is always very friendly. This is definitely one of the best courses in the area.
very nice course super friendly staff
Akron Chippewa is a very nice public course the staff was awesome and the course looks great. We played on a Saturday so slow golf unfortunately it was do to the people that we were paired with. the course overall is not very long but has very challenging blind tee shots and elevated greens. overall I gave it 4 out of 5 because the greens we're very hard and damaged in certain areas due to the amount of play.
Nice back nine
My day at Chippewa was soured by very slow play. I think they cram their tee times together a little too tightly. There were 3 groups sitting, waiting to tee off on #4. The back nine was very pretty and challenging. Massive greens here and average condition. I would not drive from far away to play here though.
Greens were rolling fast, fairways were in great shape.
Had a great round, enjoyed the other twosome we played with, getting food at the turn was hard, only one lady working counter, others at counter were standing around. Not paying attention. They lost out on our money.
Really nice play.
Great course..Older clubhouse that smells of good food. Very quiet, non residential, with wonderful views..lots of "TRICKY" challenging holes that really try your placement skills. Love the course, an hour from my house, but we will return. Excellent value. Considering the parking lot was FULL, we breezed through 18 with little or no wait. Timing was perfect. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Great golf!
Chippewa has the most beautiful greens.They are fast so stay below the hole especially on the triangle holes( 14-16)
Chippewa is one of my favorite courses in the Akron area.The front is much easier than the back so score while you can before getting to the back nine especially 14,15 and 16.I think 15 is the hardest of the Triangle holes with 14 a close second and 16 is not that difficult as long as you stay below the pin.Pace of play is usually pretty fast although this particular round was slower than normal but only because they let a couple 5-somes out .I am not sure why they allow that but it has happened several times to our group mostly on weekday mornings.
August greens were hard and fast. Difficult to hold greens. Bermuda Triangle always is supreme .challenge.
Very enjoyable round overall. With Tee time of 8 a.m. the fairways and greens were all ready to go as we got to them. Good job.
Beautiful rolling hills
I felt as if I were in Ireland. Beautiful rolling hills, and very tough greens. For the most part, getting to the greens is relatively simple, its what you do when you get there that separates good scores from poor ones. These greens are large, and if you are a long way from the hole, 4-putts are not out of the question
Excellent course w/ 1 major flaw
Loved the course. Very picturesque and in incredible shape, but with one huge flaw. The scorecards had no course layout and most tee blocks were not marked with hole number and hole layout. It was very confusing getting to the next block. Otherwise, the course was great shape with a lot of challenge on the back 9. I'll most definitely play here again.
most beautiful course I have played in ohio
Have to get on pace of play took 5 hr 15 min its kiling the game of golf
Good & challenging course but pace of play too slow!
Great value booking tee time through Golf.Now! Chippewa GC is a very good & challenging course, but the pace of play was way too slow! The front nine pace of play was acceptable, but the back nine pace of play was terrible! A 4-3/4 to 5 hour round any time is way too slow, but especially on a weekday, with no
leagues being a factor!
Course in very good shape. Greens fast above the hole. Some pin location pretty tough for weekend players.
Played in foursome . We did not have to wait anytime during the round. Considering amount of rain we have had course was in great shape. Only rcommendation I have is for an express line at turn for food so groups making turn can keep overall pace of play moving. We waited a good ten minues for beverages although food was good.
greens much slower than previous Chippewa greens
one green fast, one slow, one average,.....no consistency and the 14,15,16 triangle of holes is still brutal, makes golfing for fun impossible.
Hilly course with fast greens and in great condition!
Chippewa is a fun course because although it is difficult, it is still a very enjoyable course with some very unique and exciting holes.
challenging long course,tough greens.
This course can play very long from any tee box, for any skill level player. It has many elevated fairways and greens over valleys and lakes. Greens could be very tough with pin placement, on the many ungulated and steep slopes, this course will humble your handicap. That said, this course is in great shape and nicely mowed.
Beautifull Fairways
A very nice conditioned course. I will give this Track a 4.7. The greens are above average speed the day I played. But not that fast at all A very nice layout. Although they have those dreaded high tension towers and lines coming into play The fairways were Mint. The tee boxes manicured. And a fun course to play. I have never played here before and I will be back for my 55 minute drive. It is well worth playing here.
This course is my favorite in northeast Ohio!
This course is always in pristine condition. The fairways run out and the greens are fast and firm.
