Wet weather
Used cart

Rainy Season will make the Course green for the Season.

We have had a lot of rain in Florida. A lot of holes were cart path only. And, I think it should have been all of them. Maybe, the course should have been closed. It was VERY wet and I was afraid of leaving tire tracks from my cart. I love the course, I just think it is just a little too wet for even this time of year.

Hello, RedWingJamie. Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. Your feedback about the course is important to us. We with the recent rain we are working to get everything up to par. We have projects ongoing to recover the fairways and greens from the water on the course. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We are going to escalate your feedback to our team so we can make improvements before your next game. We will continue to work towards an excellent experience by using your comment for guidance. Thank you for playing Cleveland Heights Golf Course. We hope to see you again soon.

Course is Cart path and most holes have standing water in the fairways. Couldn’t finish 18 because of the water conditions. This course needs a couple of weeks of dry weather and then it will be good.

Great time

Check in was very easy pro shop guys were super helpful and very nice. Starter I no think is nice if you get to know him just seems a bit intimidating to talk to, even when we tried. Course was not bad even with all the rains. Bermuda is grainy but it’s Florida in the summer… cart girl was very nice overall great time.

Nice course but very wet at the moment

Very wet fairways due to the volume of rain. It does impact on many fairway shots. A couple of holes questionable if they should be open

Greens are Improving

Conditions are getting better than just two weeks ago. The area is starting to get rain on a regular basis and the green repairs on several greens are starting to take and are getting back into shape for the upcoming season. Looking forward to seeing them in the fall and winter months.

Grounds under repair

There are a lot of holes that they're working on. Some greens some fairways some tea boxes were being torn up and new sod being laid. A few greens add some bald spots on but overall it was an enjoyable place to play. The fairways are nice and love lush not love. You can enjoy your round if you look past the few things that are under repair.

Ok for $20.00/9 holes

Played the C course I had no expectations for the course as I only paid 14.00 for a 9 hole round. With that being said I got what I paid for, course has a lot of criss cross with path directions to holes not clear. Hole #2 green was almost non existent a few tee boxes had more sand than grass very common to see other golfers picking up any ball they desired happened to me twice once in my fairway and once in another. Greens overall a 5/10 - fairways 6/10- t boxes 6-10

Pitiful and rude

Course was barely playable, first nine played in an hour and a half, made turn our next nine on course B had been stacked. We were directed by starter who should be fired immediately to course A right behind a five some, so rather than play a 3hour nine we left. Feel like my money was stolen. Never again. Please fire that rude worth less starter.

Not good

Course conditions have gone downhill. Greens are awful. Driving range is dirt. Such a shame that this gem can’t be kept in consistently decent shape while others not in their league like Sanlan outshine them.

Gone down hill

Not in good shape right now. Sand craters on greens, bunkers not raked and quite a few full of water. Remember it being better. Worst greens in the county. Love the layout, hope it gets better.
