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.

disappointed

For $17 it was a decent value if you have to pay anymore it would be overpriced course is somewhat challenging and set up nicely and in past years $35 would have been ok now fairways are in very poor condition and greens are fast but full of old ball marks lots of little holes everywhere, to many other very nice courses around with more reasonable regular rates!

Fantastic Golf Experience

I have had the pleasure of playing close to a dozen golf courses in my life and Grey Hawk is by far the best course I have played. I had wanted to play here for a long time and it did not disappoint. It is a very challenging course but also a very beautiful course. The facilities are first class and when I showed up I was immediately greeted and taken care of. I had a short conversation with the gentleman who checked me in and he gave me all the information I needed. This is a course I would recommend to everybody out there. If i played on a more consistent basis, I would make this my home course. Highly recommended, I find it hard to believe that there could be a better golf course and facility than Grey Hawk!

Great course, just not in great shape

It's been a rough summer everywhere adn Grey Hawk is included. There are brown spots everywhere but the greens and tee boxes. It wasn't so bad you couldn't play but we had to take liberty here adn there. For the price, it was still well worth it. The lay out is superb and the pace was remarkable for a Saturday.

Was a great course that is in poor condition

When the course first opened, it was a premier course. The condition of the course now is poor except he greens, which are excellent. The fairways are terrible. It is way over priced because of the overall course condition.

Course used to be great

Fairways were completely burned out and not taken care of at all. The greens were OK but incredibly obvious that they have stopped spending the time/money it takes to keep them in great shape.

Course Architects did a nice job on this one, but grounds management hasn't

Nice course layout, but never scene a course so ravaged by the heat of the summer. Some of this turf will not recover and will need to be re-seeded. They say the greens are nice here, i say they are decent. This course needs some tlc and how about watering more. What a waste of a pretty cool design.

Course is in very poor condition

I was so disappointed to see the poor condition of this course. This used to be one of my favorite Cleveland courses to play. It appears that the course has had minimal watering this season. I had several shots where my ball was on dead grass with a patch of live grass behind it - unhittable lies. Thank goodness I only paid $26 through GolfNow! I definitely will not be going back.

Pitiful condition

Fairways are in atrocious shape, they appear diseased with at least 60%-70% of the grass missing or dead. It is a fantastic layout, but not worth playing in its present condition unless you get a substantial discount.

Fun course to play with challenging greens.

Always one of my favorites in the Cleveland area, but the Summer drought took its toll on the fairways this year. Still a fun course to play, but it wasn't in the condition I'm accustomed to.
