Grey Hawk Golf Club
About
Grey Hawk Golf Club is a challenging but playable course that is a Cleveland area favorite. It brings resort-quality golf to a remote location in LaGrange that is seemingly in the middle of nowhere. The rolling landscape is the ideal terrain for links-style golf. The course demands accuracy with lightning fast greens surrounded by bunkers and be sure not to stray from the fairways or you'll almost definitely be left with an uneven lie. Unlike a typical links golf course, there are water hazards coming into play on several holes on this layout. The 11th hole features a tricky island green while the third hole has an equally challenging "island green" that is surrounded by sand. Grey Hawk Golf Club is a formidable but fair test with interesting and diverse hole designs.

Very good course, good price.
The layout is great, the brought the fairways back and the greens roll very nice. We'll maintained except for some bare spots I'm the rough here and there. The greens had some ballmark issues but that's more of a player issue. Come on fellas. Overall I enjoy my round there all the time. Staff is very friendly and I've never played a real sluggish round. Recommended for a good round of public golf at a good value for a very good course.
Good layout, needs a little TLC
The course seems to have a great layout and requires shot making skills. You can easily get in trouble if you are spraying the ball. It is evident that the course needs a little money as the greens are suffering and their are a few areas that need repair. It could be a really good course with a little work and a few tweaks. I will return.
Advanced golf skills required
Great layout. LOTS of hazards. You could drown in the water. Funky mold on the greens.
Unique beauty
Very different from traditional NE Ohio golf - lots of water & sand, very few trees, very few flat lies... Great lay-out! Fast greens, well kept. Only one hole was in need of attention... This course is truely one of my favorites!
challenging course
overall course conditions good for an Ohio course in August. Winds were gusting so made a challenging course even more so. Wouldn't want it any other way.
Pace of play was good for a Saturday morning. refreshment cart came by 3x. Would play again.
Nice layout, not in great shape
This was my first visit to Grey Hawk. I travel all over NE Ohio playing great golf courses every week. I enjoyed the challenging layout of the course. It has a southern feel to it. But many areas were burned out, despite the rain we have had this year. The bunkers hardly had sand, which made them extremely difficult to play out of-there are numerous traps on the course. Lastly, the back nine pace of play was really slow. We were waiting on every hole on the second nine.
The clubhouse facilities were very nice, they have a nice patio & bar area. The staff was friendly & helpful.
Given the current course conditions, I probably won't return this season, but may come back in the future when I've heard things have improved.
Challenging layout
My friend and went to the pro shop and confirmed our tee time that I made through Golf Now, no problems there. We went and practiced our putting until our scheduled tee time at 11:30 am. There was a twosome a full hole ahead of us and we sailed along the first nine. After grabbing a $3.50 hot dog and a $2.50 Pepsi we came to the tenth tee and noticed that the twosome ahead of us played through a threesome of elderly women that evidently we're let out ahead of us at the turn. The next nine holes were painfull having to wait up to 10 minutes to hit our next shot. The course should have a ranger out on the course to make sure that play is kept on pace as it took three hours to play the back nine. I gave it four stars because of the difficulty and beautiful layout of the course. The ruff was burned up pretty bad and some of the traps were hard as a rock in some spots. I would go back because of the challenge of the course, however I will tell them about my previous experience. By the the way I had a beer in the beautiful clubhouse after my round and that cost $2.50, same as the Pepsi?
nothing great
played on a Wednesday. guy at desk said no ranger scheduled.we could go out whenever.everyone started to bunch up after making the turn.fairways below average.no sand or very little in bunkers,like hitting off contrete.didn't see anyone working on course. has gone way downhill since I played it for first time 3 years ago.really not worth playing at their regular prices,but ok at the 25bucks price I got off golf now.used to be a pleasure to play,not anymore.
Some of the most scenic holes I've seen!
The only thing missing was casual snacks towards the end of the day. Definitely not a deal breaker. Truly loved the course. Challenging but fair!
Too many divots........
Players need to repair divots on greens and in fairways. So many in both places it was annoying. Otherwise, course was in good shape !
Long road to mediocrity
Having been away for 3 years, I thought this course may bring a new perspective to this "Linksy" track. And it did. The course is nestled in a development, void of any truly beautiful scenery. No color! No beautiful vistas. The greens were a bit inconsistent. There were more than a few holes that were goofy. The #7 par 5(#1 handicap) doesn't leave you ANY room to error on your second shot. Not the way it's supposed to be done fellas. All tolled, a long drive with no beauty at the end.
Out of Money???
I was looking forward to playing Grey Hawk. Unfortunately, I left disappointed. The layout is very nice but the upkeep of the course is not so good. Bunkers are atrocious, some are being filled in??? Fairways are spotty. Looks like only tees and greens are being watered. Based on the condition of the course, it looks like management does not have the funds to properly maintain the course. I feel sorry for the residents and the designer; their vision for the community and course is not being properly cared for.
Great track, needs some help
Great layout and some challenging holes. For sure needs some help as far as the condition of the course. Front was in average shape with weeds growing in some bunkers. Sand was packed down and actually saw some shots bounce out of the middle of bunkers! Back was in average shape, same weeds in bunkers and many fairways had weeds and numerous bare spots. Finishing hole needs cleanup around the clubhouse! With a giant porch overlooking the 18th I would think that hole would be pristine!
Awesome Course
Great course, awesome condition. Took clients there and they loved it.
Rough afternoon
We made a tee time on golf now and called before we made it. Our tee time was 512pm and they said it would be WIDE open. We got there and we had to start off the back because their was some junior golf event going on earlier in the afternoon and they weren't done yet. So ok fine..first 3 holes smooth sailing until we catch up to about 3 foursomes who wouldn't let a two some play through. Luckily they were on their last side. So we get to number 1 and they let 3 foursomes of members out in front of us when we were making the turn..HORRIBLE..never again..BEWARE THEY LIE!
GReat course to play especially if you havent yet
There is no doubt that this is a top notch golf course whether public or private. It has a great clubhouse to boot. The track is difficult and makes you use all of your clubs. Rated it 4 of 5
Nice layout.
Terrific layout. The fairways and greens were in good shape. Our only complaint pertained to the sand bunkers, a few of which were far too thin.
Course detiorating fast
Sand traps are a mess, greens slow. Unfortunately this great lay out must be running out of money, again!
Grey Hawk
Area had a lot of rain the days leading up to our round, which lead to cart path only. Mowers were out in full force and overall the fairways were in great condition aside from a few casual water spots. Bunkers were wet and several in need of some work. As usual the links style and uneven lies were challenging, as was the breeze which seemed to always be in our face! If you are in the area and have not played this track, you are missing out. It does get very busy at times but you can still finish in a decent amount of time and is a super deal as a Hot Buy.
