Getting better

I've played here several times over the past several years. It's not my first choice, but the price is usually good and pace of play is usually ok. I've been there when I wanted to leave because of the conditions, but they seem to be working hard to improve. The layout is interesting and you need to hit various shots. Not real long, but who needs that?:) 3 nines make for a nice "new" look each time. I'll play there a couple of times before the end of the year.

Thanks for your feedback Tim. We have aerified greens the past three weeks. It has been one of the wettest Septembers as we have received 16 inches of rain since Hurricane Hermine on September 1st. Mowing the facility has been a challenge being so wet. We have been working hard to keep getting better. Come back soon as things are looking very good as we head into Fall. Stop by and say hello next time you are here. Brock Witmyer (GM)

things are getting better but still some work to do

Played A and C sides.

Tees and fairways fine.

A side greens recently aerated and top dress so very slow.

C sides greens mostly good . Some repair patches on some of them.

Bar and restaurant closed for renovations.

Thanks for the feedback. We did aerify A greens last week, doing C greens this week and B greens next week. We are looking to have the food & beverage service open by October 3rd. We have partnered with the Bosko Family (Beef O' Brady's) to run the operation. It will not be Beef's, but separate food & beverage operation. Thanks for the support. Brock Witmyer (GM)

Thanks for the feedback. You are correct as we just sodded some areas on the greens. We are in the process of topdressing, rolling and lowering green heights for better playability. Come back and play in a few weeks and be my guest, call me at 863-834-2379. Brock Witmyer (GM)

The course is in okay condition right now, but I'd definitely play it again.

The greens are not in great shape, but not bad enough to complain. The course is typically in very good condition. I've played here many times over the years and love it.

Thanks so much for the feedback. We recently aerified all three courses and did a curfew application for high counts of nematoads. We have seen very good results of these maintenance practices over the past couple of days. Brock Witmyer (GM)

Nice little track to work on all facets of the game

As long as the greens are decent and right now they are this place is great. Mark in the shop is always nice to deal with and the starters are all good guys. This place gets a lot of play and I believe they redid the greens not too long ago. Give it a chance if you're close by and the food is pretty solid too.

Value for the Buck

Nines A & C were in fairly decent condition and the greens rolled well. Spotty areas as is the case with course as it has lots of play and tournaments. Staff is excellent and cart lady friendly.

Thanks for the feedback about the staff and facility. The recent rain and the aerifications we just did were much needed. We will be doing a curfew application on June 13th, 14th and 15th to offset high nematoad counts from recent soil samples. Thanks again and stop by and say hello next time you are at Cleveland Heights. Brock Witmyer (GM)

Great Value -But"

I really like this course, but play courses "A" and "C" if you can. The "B" course is in rougher shape. The greens on B are in need of work but it looks like they are working on them. The greens and fairways are good on the other two courses. Very scenic with lots of wildlife on warm days.

TYPICAL CITY OWNED COURSE

Upon arrival, and after Check-in, NO carts available!!!!! Over-booked, and NO one managing Cart service. Golfers keeping carts, to go back out for additional play. Cart Service did NOT have listing of Tee times.

Course's greens were not maintain - rough, un-mowed, etc.

No ranger monitoring pace of play.

No Cart lady after 2 pm.

What a joke.

Whoa!

When we looked the course up and saw it was a city run public course expectations were not high my thoughts were that I would be playing a course that would be "ok" but nothing spectacular- I was wrong- upon arriving I was immediately stunned at how beautiful and well taken care of this course really is. I hit some balls before my round and got paired with two gentleman and had an awesome round. Greens were lightning and fairways and tee boxes were in wonderful shape. Only drawback I could see is I felt like the course could use some more length- Par 5s are two shots to the green for anyone with a straight ball but other than that I would recomend this course to everyone- for the money you just cannot beat it. Period.

Best it's been

They have shaped up this 27 hole course just in time for the snow birds.this city owned course has trimmed the trees , put in a new pitching green , and regreened 1/3 of the course (c-course).most of there bunkers have quality sand.This course is a good deal for the money ,and I have no problem saying it's my hometown course.

Fairways wet even when sunny.

Staff not friendly. Restaurant was closed. Carts were good condition. Some fairways didnt have drainage so were wet even when no rain for days. Greens were ok except some had no lack of maintenance.
