Raymond C. Firestone Golf Course

Firestone 9 is a nice little public course that sits adjacent to the Firestone Country Club. It has a nice mix of holes, the worst hole is the first, short flat and boring, followed by a straight forward par three. But once you just to the par 5 third, it is a different course and stays great throughout. Great mix of fun holes, with a couple of blind tee shots. Minimal trees, but nice molding to frame the holes. good elevation changes, some kind of extreme.

The greens had been aerated, and were recovering niecely. Balls rolled pretty well, but were still quite bumpy. Everything else was pretty good. For a Sunday at 11, we played nine is under 2 hours, which is awesome.

The course was in great shape and staff is very polite and professional

As per usual, starter was a complete doosher. Never played here before, went to the actual Firestone clubhouse first (down the road) this place is called Hackers apparently. Ended up being about 10 mins late. Starter got smart about it, I said thank you sir and tee'd. Clubhouse was very friendly though. Course was super soft, felt true. $13 wj cart on golfnow. Although short, very fun to play. Pace of play can get ridiculous considering there are only 9 holes. Especially if you have a 4some with three buzzed females pulling out the range finder every shot even though they hit about 15yds each shot. In all, make sure you're not in a hurry and have fun. Definitely worth it.

The Firestone 9 is a nice nine hole course. It is public, but runs along the north course of Firestone Country Club. It is a more modern and open layout than the tree lined fairways of Firestone CC. For a par 35 it is a bit on the short side, 3000 yards. The course has a few well placed trees that direct shots and a spot to aim shots on blind shots

I played with my four year old, after several groups of senior twosomes. We waited for a 30 seconds to a minute on a half of the tees, and played in 1:45 approximately. Course conditions were good. With the lack of rain in the summer for Akron, it was firm and fast.

The course has family tees, played fast, always glad to play quickly. I am glad a had an opportunity to play it with my child.

This course is in excellent condition I love playing here, unfortunately 80% of the time it takes almost 3 hours to play nine holes

Okay, your in town on business, or to play at one of Firestone's great golf courses, and you just want to work on your game, Firestone 9 provides and inexpensive round that is in the Firestone family... I think you cannot go wrong for the time and money.

The Firestone 9 is maintained, as well as its sister course, the North Course at Firestone Country. Thus, one can play a course, whose condition will rival any private country club, for a reasonable green fee. The Pro Shop is well stocked, with the latest golf clothing, shoes and equipment. The facility has a driving range that offers heated tees, for the colder months. Next door is Hacker's bar and restaurant.

Greens are best in area!I I play this course weekly and it is always in great shape! What a value for my GolfNow dollars!

The tournament is coming to Akron next week. May be tough to get on.
The. Course is in beautiful shape.

With the exception of the horribly slow play (several groups with very poor play in a row caused bottleneck), playing the Firestone Public 9 leaves you with the experience like you've played a professional course. This day followed some horrendous rain and the course was still in amazing shape. Greens were fast to putt, but held for a good approach. I truly love this course!

The course was in excellent condition for the season. Tee box and greens were in top shape. Great value for the money. Wish they had 2 nines!

Course is always well maintained and the greens are quick, true and challenging. Will keep coming back.

Besides it being a great day to golf, this course is very nice; well maintained. Looking forward to my next outing!! I highly recommend it!

It was a little busy but perfect weather and great course conditions. Highly recommend.

A challenging course with multiple elevation changes and difficult and placements that will make any golfer put his game and check
