No care about pace of play

Given the current lockdown situation I understand people that dont normally golf wanting to get out of the house and do something. Pairing that with terrible course management is not a good mix. We saw 3 groups of 7, that's right I said 7. Multiple groups of 5 and no ranger to monitor pace of play. Multiple times there would be 3 to 4 groups waiting on a tee box while holes out in front would be wide open. It seems that courses are more concerned with collecting money then the golfers experience. I probably wont be back anytime soon.

Terrible management

Every time I play here I feel like I wasted money. The course management is terrible the pace of play is always garbage and the pin placement is always terrible. If you want to enjoy your round dont play here. I am a single digit handicap and I feel like whoever cuts the holes has never played golf before. They seriously have zero cares about pace of play. I have been a starter at a golf course and I would be embarrassed about the pace of play on a busy day at my course compared to a fall slow day at this course.

Could be nice if it was somewhat maintained.

Greens were as long as the fairways. Rough looked like it hadn't been cut in weeks. This course used to be nice and every year we give it a shot and is always underwhelming.

Hidden Gem

First time playing Pleasant View and I was not disappointed. The course was in great shape. The layout has some up and down, left and right with true rolling greens. Great value and a wonderful hidden gem.

Terrible fairways.

This course used to be nice years ago. Every time I go back now it seems to be worse than the time before. Fairways washed out, tee boxes don't have any grass. The one good thing of note is that they did get rid of the ridiculous par 5 that was a 8 iron tee shot. Better layout now for sure. With some care this course could come back to life but we will probably leave this one off the list for the foreseeable future.

This place needs a website

The course is all around great. It is a little pricier than most courses in the area but is really nice. Only downside is they have yet to discover the interwebs and online tee times.

Fairways looked like rough.

This course is really over hyped. Clumps of grass all throughout the fairways made the course an eye sore. From the tee boxes that are by far the worst I've played this year you could not tell where the fairways were. The layout is not good 485 yard par 4s and 267 yard par 4s why? Greens were great, they were the only redeeming feature of this course. For the money that this course charges for greens fees you could play 50 better courses in NE Ohio. Don't think I will be back.

Only go here if you have 6 hours to burn

Course overall is pretty open straight and easy. Smaller greens than you would expect for such an easy lay out. This place overbooks like crazy. They didn't take into account multiple online teetimes and times that were called in. We had a tee time at 8:30 am in 30 degree weather and it took us almost 6 hours as a twosome. Hacks everywhere. spent half my day waiting on people to get out of the fairway who weren't on our hole. Almost Hit by a couple wayward shots. This is not a course that a low to mid handicapper will enjoy.

Poor course conditions

Thought I would check this place out, not far from Akron. I was very disappointed in the course....ball marks so bad on the greens that I don't think a single put rolled true. They sent us off in a foursome with three 2somes behind us and no where to let them play through to given the group in front of us was a 5 and terribly slow. No rangers checking pace of play. The only upside of this course was the drink cart girl. save your money there are a lot of nicer courses in the area.

Held up well in the rain

Nice course not too far from akron. Greens were fast even in the light rain. Greens were small and difficult to get close for birdie. Play was fast staff was friendly, great value for the money

Course was nice, too many noon tee times

Paradise lakes was great for the deal here on Golf Now the course was well maintained. The greens were fast and the course has many turns. It is a short course especially on the front 9. The pace of play is my only complaint. Instead of starting groups on both the front and the back they flooded the front of the course and it took nearly 5 hours to play 18. Overall I would go back and reccomend to friends.

Long drive

Course is about 45 minutes from akron, decent set up nice and quiet area. Yardages seemed to be pretty far off from what was marked. only clear markers were 150 and were still off. Bring your range finder for this one. Great for beginners.
