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.

Well worth a visit

This course was very fun to play, although we played in mid October and some leaves and work was going on the conditions were very good. I highly recommend this course to players of all types.

Best conditioned public course easily this year in Metro Cleveland, OH

Better than country club course condition throughout greens and fairways. Greens are nice and smooth and fast, and the fairways are in supper condition considering this summer's drought. They are easily better than many greens of the area course.

Layout is interesting and challenging; greens are never a easy 2-putt. Course is fairly open, so good for any level of skills and good for group outings.

The club house is a little sub-par comparing with the course, but the people there are very friendly and helpful as I hosted a group outing there. The course rating for all tees are certainly miss-leading, they should be much more difficult. I was told they've not got an official rating done after some major change overs.

Overall, a great public course which I'd rate the 1st in the greater Cleveland area.

Consistently in good condition

I have played this course a number of times at different times of the year. It is always in good shape and the greens are consistently well maintained. Sometimes the pace of play has been rather slow and I have never seen a ranger keeping people on pace. Nontheless, it is a very good course for the price and well worth the trip.

Great Course

.A tail of two nines, the course is always in great shape. The course is opened all year and has great drainage, dry even when you think there's no way we can play today. Give it a try, the layout is challenging and well worth the greeen fee
