So well maintained. The same crew that takes care of the championship course takes care of this one. Greens are great.
The tournament is coming to Akron next week. May be tough to get on.
The. Course is in beautiful shape.
Great Course Terrible Logistics
Golfed there 5 times in 2023-24. Each time the staff is deer in the headlights with no basic organization skills. They have a golf course but act like they are inconvienced when people show up.
Expensive
My dad has been playing this course for 20 years. It was my first time playing this course. I loved the course as it was very unique compared to other courses in the area. The condition of the course is exceptional for this area too. But, $40 for a nine hole course is expensive. For me, it’s probably a one time a year course. $40 is too much even for how nice it is.
Firestone’s public course is good fun for all
One could be forgiven for writing Firestone’s inexpensive, public-facing 9-holer off as an afterthought, but it is a pleasant spot for locals and an underrated amenity for members and stay-and-play guests. Located at the very northern edge of the property, it’s by far the least punishing golf on property, with a refreshingly quirky run of par 4s from hole 4 through hole 8. The 7th hole is relatively short on the card but plays about 70 feet uphill and jukes right at a large tree, culminating with a skyline green. In similarly pristine shape as the club’s three main courses, the “Firestone 9” is a lovely diversion that pairs well with a beer or two.
(ALSO: Firestone 9 is home to an outpost of Big Shots Golf, a worthy competitor to Topgolf and other “golfertainment” options. Firestone 9 visitors warm up on Big Shots’ range.
Overpriced!
This course used to be a gem to play. Don’t get me wrong, the condition has always been impeccable, and the pace of play usually is ok. However, $35+ to play nine holes is outrageous. This is nearly a par 3/4 course. I used to play this all the time for around $20 at the most. But now that the golf is a side show to Big Shots (knockoff Top Golf), they have jacked the pricing too high to justify playing there.
Booked tee time and when we went to play course was closed so wasted time and convenience and had to go to another golf course, very disappointed that someone didn’t email that course was closed after booking. Horrible time and communication
Wide open!
Really a nice course, good for newer players. It's wide open and still challenging
Golfnow is worse than useless.
Golfnow sold me a tee time that didn't exist, so course told me to kick rocks. Screw them both.
Great course.
The course is in great shape. But, a little pricy for 9 holes and the guy at the counter was grumpy. Grab a golf cart in the parking lot before you walk all the way to the club house with your clubs. And, the great restaurant at the course is "closed until further notice".
Wide open!
It was a nice course, pretty wide open. The greens were really fast but fun!
