Grey Hawk Golf Club

Well we had a little bit of a problem I booked through golfnow.com for a foursome at 21.00 ea for 18 holes w/cart and it was for 11:33 AM I called the course and said to them that we would be a little late and they said nobody by the name of Kneebusch is booked for 11:33 AM so I quickly called golfnow.com to tell them of the problem at 15 minutes on the phone golfnow.com found my confirmation and also called Grey Hawk for us when we all arrived by that time it was 12:05 PM it finally got straighten out and we then went over to the practice greens for about 35 minutes because the starter had us now teeing off at 12:45 PM We were behind 3 groups of 2 people per cart We finally got to tee off but it was 1:PM now each hole a some kind of different feature to it It actually felt like we were at TPC Sawgrass golf course There was a lot of bunkers sand traps that needed more sand in it and lots of water on both sides of the greens We played best ball on all 18 holes The pace all day long was very slow we were waiting anywhere between 25-30 minutes per hole The starter made a big mistake we he sent out 3 groups of two per cart. Then one of our electric carts died on the 9th hole we had to call for some help we ended up getting a new electric cart to play the back 9 All in all our foursome had a good time at Grey Hawk I will come back again but the owners need to find away to make the fairways more green then brown and clean up the greens also because they are to brown and a lot of bare marks on the green this course is now 2nd best to Sleep Hollow in Brecksville Ohio They need maintance to due a better job overall with the course it is beginning to fall apart once a nice course is now falling to the bottom of the list in course that I have played great valve for your money only if you use golfnow.com I wouldn't pay 65.00 ea for 18 holes w/cart better course out there for far less money then grey hawk again I like the course layout and I will come back again by using golfnow.com My group had fun enjoyed themselves and my son shot an 82 for 18 holes I barely beat him because I shot an 80 for 18 holes I shot 6 strokes worse then I shot on a regular basics around 74-75 for 18 holes the 7th hole by far is the toughest hole on this course all four of us got par. This course makes you think hard about your golf section I miss judged a couple of the holes but used a 6 hybird on the 11th hole the island green and put it 4 feet over the pin my son used a 3 hybird and hit it within one feet in front of the pin by far his best shot of the day It was an excellent day to play golf about 79 degrees outside and a lot of sunshine differently you had to wear your sunglasses because every hole you were looking into the sun A gave a 5 star rating because it is still a good course to play have maintance spend one year on fixing the fairway and the greens and this course would be the best course in Ohio right now Sleep Hollow is my number one course in Ohio Thanks Steve

I live about 2 hrs from this course. I used to love playing here. After yesterday's round I'll never go back. It took us 5 hrs and 12 minutes to complete a round on a Friday morning. There were no outings so this makes no sense. On every hole groups would just meet up with each other and talk for 10 minutes or so. Regardless of how many people were waiting behind them. The best part of the day was when the starter told the group in front of us to take your time. If you are in a hurry you shouldn't play. I do believe most golf courses Iv worked at say pace of play is the biggest issue. Anything over 4 hrs is ridiculous.

I would recommend good value for your money. it was a beautiful day. And my golf game was even better than normal. ALso a wonderful terrace with a view to enjoy after your game.

Fabulous track in need of a cash infusion. Bunkers becoming overgrown weeds sprouting up every where, greens declining. The darn trains rolling through are pretty annoying. This grande concept of a golf course in the middle of no where is dying a slow death.

This is one of the most fun courses around in my opinion. It is really hard, specifically 7,8, & 9. But with two true island greens (one sand and the other water). It's long, lots of water and sand. And there is always good deals to be had.

This course has the makings to be great. Unfortunately, it is either too young or they are having money issues. The layout is one of the best and most challenging that I have played. The holes are all different and it honestly felt like we played several different courses. The condition was disappointing. Bunkers were not maintained, fairways were filled with weeds and not mowed down - the greens were not too bad, but far from perfect.

If they put a year of hard work into this place, it would be a really great track. Regardless, I feel like the price was fair for what it is.

Played with a buddy in the middle of day on a holiday. Round was slow, but was to be expected playing as a twosome.

The course appears to be making a comeback, but still has a lot of work to do. Multiple bunkers are nearly unplayable, which wasn't the case 2 years ago. The greens were really chewed up. They seemed to have been aerated within the last three weeks or so, but it's more than that. They rolled relatively true despite the appearance. The other issue besides the bunkers and greens was just the general condition of the outlying areas. I understand letting some of that go due to cost and water conservation, but multiple areas are infested with weeds and it's in playable parts of the course. Tee boxes also needed cut.

Overall, the layout is one of the best around, but hope condition improves. Worth the drive to play a challenging and wonderful layout. Just don't expect too much from a conditioning standpoint.

I played Grey Hawk years ago, and honestly forgot how nice it was. It's 'almost' like being on vacation with several holes very well sculpted and unique. I'll def. be back.

One problem that was disappointing,... when I arrived and paid for 18 and a cart around 5-530 the person at the counter was friendly. He gave me a cart key and told me to enjoy the round.

The pace was a touch slow due to weather, but not bad. When I briefly stopped at the clubhouse around 7:30 to make the turn, a crabby cart attendant said 'YOU'RE GOING BACK OUT?'. I brushed it off and said 'yes, I paid for 18'. He then barked 'CARTS HAVE TO BE BACK IN BY 8:15'

Um, not cool. There was no way I could finish the back 9 in time (even though there was plenty of daylight at 8:15 to keep going) so I only played a few more holes and turned my cart in. I lost out on half a round after driving 45 minutes to get here.

The lady in the restaurant was sympathetic when she asked how my round was and said the cart attendant should never have told me to get back in by 8:15. 'People golf after 8:15 all the time, and when they are finished they leave the cart near the garage'. So, I'm not one to kill a place forever for one bad experience, but in this case a cart attendant in a hurry gave my experience a bit of a bad taste.

As I said though, I'll still be back. I'll bring that guy a cupcake maybe it will cheer him up.

Oh, the clubhouse and restaurant are darn good. = )

Some holes don' t even make sense. Dandelions everywhere, aerated greens, way to pricey for the conditions!!! The island hole was fantastic, but the lone highlight. Extremely challenging for the weekend golfer. It almost felt like it was designed for pro's but then they just quit building it.

Nice welmaintained . Staff were friendly . enjoyed very much . will play again

The course has some really nice aspects but the greens need attention.

Course was in surprisingly good condition for mid-April with the long winter we had. Didn't have ball washers or trash containers at enough holes but maybe that has changed. Our foursome paid 32.00 each as winter rates were still in effect. Very challenging and cant wait to play in the coming months when the course should be in even better condition.

Course drains very well. Greens are smooth and fast considering all the rain we had that day. Great layout.

Bunkers need work, great course design, should rename it train hawk!!

Starter had no idea what was going on. Ranger was very rude and disrespectful. Clubhouse staff was friendly. I golf here several times every year but will not golf here again due to unfavorable experience. Was criticized by staff for playing a solo round and being put between groups (starter's idea).

Course is in great shape for this time of year! The greens were in very good shape. The staff has always been outstanding at this course.

Hold on to your hat when you get to no. 7,8 and 9! tough holes, bring your "A" game for those three!

got an excellent deal on Golfnow.com for a course of this caliber. the course was in great shape but very wet due to the rain that came overnight and made it a little tougher to play. only complaint was the 20 minutes it took to get a hot dog and then the bun was burnt. other than that it was a great experience.

The layout of this course is challenging and each hole has its own character. For the winter we've had, the greens were in decent shape. But over the years, the maintenance of the overall course has steadily declined. I will return because I enjoy the challenge, but wish the maintenance crew would get it up to the 5 star rating a great layout deserves.

It's flat, cuz it in west of Cleveland, but one of the tough one. a lots of water. 7th 8th 9th are always tough, if you play good on these holes, your score will be pretty good on most case. Then you have to be good on 11th, 12th, 13th, 14th - every hole involve Water. It could be easy par or easy double par,

Course in good shape .. was very windy 30-40mph .. hopefully they water this summer and don't let the place burn out in June/July
